I realize this post may be controversial, but I sincerely believe that Palin cannot win the Republican primaries. If she would then leave the GOP to run on a third party ticket, she will be responsible, more that any other person, for a second Obama term. I ask her supporters to think this through and to not insist that a charismatic and inexperienced politician with a very thin resume be put in charge of the world’s biggest economy and strongest military. The voters did that in 2008 and we can all see what that gets us. Lectures from hostile governments, a broken economy, an empty Treasury and political drift and stagnation.
If you really think that Sarah Palin should be President, don’t throw her to the sharks before she is ready to fight them off……and you can be assured the sharks will come after her in 2012.
As Dr. Savage says, we need an experienced person who understands how to get a bill through Congress, how to get a legislative agenda actually passed into law. The inexperienced politician we have in the Oval Office now has been stalemated for almost a year and he still has a Supermajority in the House and, but for the Massachusetts Miracle of Jan. 19, he’d still have one in the Senate.
So, in 2012, lets pick someone who has a proven and time-tested track record, someone who has allies in the House and Senate who will help the new President get his/her agenda passed…..and who can start to repair the damage done to this country by Obama & Co.

Thanks for talking about this. This needs to be discussed before it is too late. She could potential split the party and the republicans will not win back the White House.
I heard that episode where Savage said this, he also made the comment that Palin is using rhetoric from 1996 era Talk Radio… made me laugh
Thanks .. yes, Savage does say it like it is .. I like that about him. He is smart in this episode to not specify someone else but give characteristics that he would like to see so that you don’t get people calling in to bash a specific instead of “trying” to justify Palin. The selection of the Palin loyal who did call in was very revealing after what Savage had just said.
Craig,
Remember one of our conversations from several months ago when I said that “we need to elect a businessman in this country” who will know how to clean up the mess that Obama will leave behind him?
I got a kick out of hearing Dr. Savage say the same thing.
One last thought: The most dangerous person in the country at the moment is Barack Obama. The second most dangerous person in the country is Sarah Palin.
The Palin Kool-Aid drinkers have alot in common with the ones for Obama in ’08 and look where that got us.
