Sarah Palin / Liz Cheney 2012?
By Hillary Taft - Wednesday, June 17th, 2009
It’s so amazing to me that the right has turned out to be much more supportive of women in politics than the left. The left tried to run Hillary out on a rail – but the right has mostly embraced Sarah Palin and sticks up for her, rather than piling on more sexism like our liberal friends have done with Hillary.
Check out this amazing article on Palin in American Thinker. What blew me even more away was how many folks in the comments wanted an all-woman team for the 2012 Republican ticket: Sarah Palin and Liz Cheney. Can we imagine the Democrats doing the same anytime this century? Doubtful.
An excerpt:
The street fighting, world class, lifelong political experts of the left see “it” and it makes them crazy. They went crazy for Obama; they are going crazy for Palin, although in the other direction.
Palin could fill a stadium if she were reciting a cookbook. But she isn’t. She is delivering common sense to an electorate that is becoming ever more jaded every day with the Obama nonsense. Miranda rights for terrorists? $4 trillion deficit?
Look at the blow she delivered with one phrase about “styrofoam columns” and imagine what she can do with the material Obama has recently given her.
Opposing Palin’s values has no payoff for the left. They oppose those values for any conservative. They have to destroy her. And that is her power because they can’t destroy her.
Whenever she chooses, she will take her first trip to Iowa to campaign for some obscure congressional candidate, and when she does, the liberal media cannot ignore the screaming crowds. And they will not be crowds manufactured by an advance team. They will be fired up mothers, working people who do not want to pay for deadbeats’ mortgages, people who are now going to grass roots tea parties.
