CNN Political Ticker: All politics, all the time Blog Archive - Palin launches political action committee « - Blogs from CNN.com
WASHINGTON (CNN) – Sarah Palin has launched a new political action committee called SarahPac, signaling that the Alaska Governor intends to remain a player in national politics even after her failed bid to become the country’s first female vice president.
The above is from the link

Well defenders and supporters you tried to say she was back in Alaska being their governor and not a national player but she has other plans.

What say ye. Is she a solid national leader that people will listen to and follow?

Got no problem with going after her stance on the issues, but the way the media and the hollywood freaks attacked her personally is just sad.

Yes, but look at all the deadly serious things going on in the world. Palin is comic relief.

It's not funny if you live in Alaska where she has the power to actually screw things up.

OMG! I dislike that woman SO much, as far as I'm concerned she's in the same category as Hitler and Bush #2. I know she really hasn't done anything ALL that bad yet, but I think she has great potential for evil.

Well, maybe she's so involved in keeping her 'face' in the National media that the people who will be making decisions for the Alaskan people know what they're doing.

Another good thing that may come of this, the people of Alaska see she is NOT doing the State's business and may elect someone else in 2010!?! Only two more years of Blamin' Wailin' Palin!!!! Wooooooowhooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Unfortunately, this is actually one of the major causes of her dysfunctional administration. Some of the state officials she appointed are retreads from former administrations that were either fired for incompetence (and rightly so IMO), or others who resigned in sympathy with those fired. Now their nonsensical governance is wreaking havoc with our state's economic future, while Sarah is too busy with her book deals and her Facebook page to keep them under control.

Sadly though, no one in the lower 48 hears any of this. All that is heard down there are either fabrications and lies about her wardrobe, desire to ban books, claiming her daughter’s kid is really her’s, etc., or equally absurd assertions that she is some great conservative though statements like “drill bay drill, etc. Thus, half the country hates her for the wrong reasons, while the other half worships her for equally faulty ones.

What this really illustrates more than anything however is the utter failure of the MSM to communicate accurate information anywhere, and why our democracy may ultimately be doomed. If the population at large is incapable of making informed decisions because they are being lied to through every media outlet, we will never have the competent representation required to truly fix the important issues challenging this country today.

Again, there are plenty of reasons to dislike Sarah Palin, but what you guys are hearing down south is all a bunch of BS, on both sides.

I'm not aware of her attacking any prominent women calling them c###. I saw pictures of several protest rallies against her where people held up signs saying that. I also recall a few comedy routines calling her that.

And Tina Fey said she could see Russia...not Sarah Palin.

No worse than a college prof playing president.

Highest approval rating of any Governor. Over 70%.
