Reconsidering Sarah

- By Thomas Lamb
*
Chip Hanlon, who had written off Sarah Palin as a viable 2012 candidate, finds himself reconsidering the former Alaska governor as presidential timber:

"She's been doing all the right things lately. Write the book. Travel globally, give select speeches and gather up some worldliness first-hand. Weigh in on a few important topics of the day. Keep your supporters energized. The only thing Palin is really missing now is a big, positive Reagan-esque message around which she will define herself."

The 2008 GOP vice presidential candidate's Facebook Note Tuesday reminded Hanlon that like most Republicans, he would prefer a commander-in-chief who thinks like Sarah Palin over the law school lecturer currently occupying the White House.

Christian Milord: Predictions For Palin in 2010

At Red County, Christian Milord has some predictions for Sarah Palin for 2010.  Here's just a sample of his commentary:

Although we should never expect a politician to solve our problems, or save us from life's challenges, it can't hurt to respect a politician whose values are quite similar to the Founders' principles.

From what we know about Sarah Palin, it looks like her values resonate with conservatives and independents, which make up about 70% to 80% of Americans. She has a faith in God which sustains her in her personal and professional life.

She also possesses an energy and optimism about America, which Ronald Reagan shared...

Paul Ibbetson: Analyzing the Psychology of Palin-Hate

- By Thomas Lamb

“I hate Sarah Palin, I… I just hate her!” That is not an uncommon outburst from some when it comes to feelings about one of the most polarizing figures (in “liberal” minds) in the political arena. As I write about the political happenings of the former governor of Alaska, I am continually amazed at both reader responses and callers to my radio program, Conscience of Kansas, when it comes to the level of hatred that Palin generates from some in the public. So, who are the real Palin-haters? Is there a common factor that binds people who find their blood boiling when this woman’s name is mentioned? Is their argument for Palin-hate justified? I hope to create a discussion that may illuminate why some politicians just appear to be “hate-magnets.”
