Benyamin Korn has a great piece in today’s Philadelphia Daily News in which he details why Governor Palin is still around and only getting more powerful and influential, despite the best efforts of the establishment GOP: NO SOONER had the polls closed on Nov. 2 than Sarah Palin began shaping the platform of the Republican [...]

An article written by Tom Blumer by the above title appears in today’sPajamas Media. I have been and continue to be amazed that Republicans would even consider Mitt Romney a potential nominee, much less a “frontrunner”. We’ve documented his incessant flip floppery and transparent opportunism on numerous occasions, as have others. He is, in fact, the Republican version of [...]

It’s undeniable. Conservative Tea Party Republicans are having a political love affair with Sarah Palin. If things progress as they appear to be headed, we’re looking at a Summer 2012 wedding in Tampa, Fla., with a fall Honeymoon through the swing states. And the GOP establishment can’t stand it. In fact, they’re acting like Julia [...]

An interesting piece by Nate Silver at the New York Times. Silver compares Governor Palin’s web traffic to other potential 2012 candidates and finds that there is no comparison: In last week’s article on Tim Pawlenty, we noted that Mr. Pawlenty’s Google search traffic — which may be a reasonably good proxy for how much [...]

Editor’s Note: This is the first of a two-part series exploring Sarah Palin’s qualifications for the presidency. Qualification: An essential skill, quality, or attribute that makes somebody suitable for a job, activity, or task. The opinion leaders sincerely want to know whether Governor Sarah Palin is “qualified” to run for president. Why else would they [...]

Mona Charen wrote another anti-Palin hit-piece Thursday for the National Review titled, “Why Sarah Palin Shouldn’t Run.” Just as other establishment talking heads have done recently, she echoes the opinion that Governor Palin shouldn’t run for President. These people are all starting to sound identical to me. It’s almost as if they’re reading form the [...]

Scott Conroy recently interviewed some of Governor Palin’s staff, including foreign policy advisor Michael Goldfarb: Palin’s small inner circle kept their eyes on the prize, pausing every now and then to chuckle at the dismissiveness of the Beltway establishment. “Look at what’s happened over the past two years, and you tell me that we don’t have [...]

Ninety-one ordinary barbarians, or as CNN would say a “handful”, met in the bastion of liberalism, Chicago, on the weekend of November 12th -14th to show support for Governor Palin and the conservative movement. Attendees arrived throughout the day on Friday. One attendee even was approached to sign a petition for Rahm Emanuel’s mayoral candidacy [...]

The New York Times Magazine has a refreshingly fair piece posted on its website today that will be published in their upcoming hardcopy edition. It is amazing how including quotes from former Republican strategist Mary Matalin rather than the anonymous, generic “GOP operative” or “high ranking Republican official” can give a news piece credibility. Politico [...]

You should know by now that everything is Sarah Palin’s fault. Everything. You stub your toe this morning? Palin! Anyone else notice that the GOP elite spent the days following the midterm elections bashing Sarah Palin?

Monday, in the midst of the still ongoing Alaska Senate vote count, the “perky one,” Katie Couric gave an interview to write-in candidate Lisa Murkowski. With a Senate seat at stake, and all the legal wrangling happening with this election, it makes sense that Murkowski’s opinion about Governor Palin would be the headline, right? Well, [...]

In a speech on Monday in Arizona, Governor Palin correctly noted that food prices were rising, and that QE2 would lead to even more inflationary pressure on food, oil, and other commodities. This prompted Sudeep Reddy, a Wall Street Journal reporter to question Governor Palin’s asserting that food prices were rising. Governor Palin then put [...]

I find it remarkable that it’s even necessary to point out something as obvious as the above, but this lunacy just won’t die. So, I thought it worthwhile to take a dispassionate and rigorous look at the facts, something those who are pushing this absurd meme are too lazy — or ignorant — to do. [...]

I’ve read some truly moronic claims in the mainstream media the past week, but this may take the cake. Time Magazine, apparently, wants to make the case that the fiscal responsibility and monetary restraint Governor Palin and the Tea Party advocate will result in hyperinflation. You can’t make this up. Ed Morrissey does a masterful [...]

In a Wall Street Journal editorial yesterday (to which Ian linked), the editors noted the degree of sophistication Governor Palin is bringing to the table as she attempts to focus the nation’s attention on the disastrous repercussions which must result from a further inflating of the currency. Specifically, she referred to QE2, the Fed’s plan [...]

From Governor Palin’s Facebook page: In his press conference on Monday, President Obama responded to critics of the Federal Reserve’s decision to start a new round of quantitative easing – a fancy term for printing money out of thin air. He claimed this move would drive up U.S. growth rates. He also warned that “the [...]

Kathleen Parker has decided to join in her fellow GOP Elitists, Peggy Noonan and Michael Gerson, in placing all responsibility for any Republican losses in last week’s Mid-term elections on Governor Palin. Of course, the Elite probably retroactively blame Governor Palin for Reagan losing Minnesota in 1984 as well. Rumor has it as well that [...]
