At first I was surprised the Foxies would dare to ask, but then I remembered which network it was that went gaga over the anonymous sniping at her by Team Maverick.
Are we sure her career’s in trouble? Judging by the response to her appearance at that pro-life event in Indiana, the market for her has yet to soften:
Right to Life officials announced Thursday that, in addition to speaking to a sold-out crowd of 2,180 during the 6 p.m. banquet in The Centre’s Bill Brooks Exhibition Hall, Palin will appear before people paying $16 per ticket to watch a live broadcast feed in the building’s auditorium.
Right to Life officials had been working for weeks to confirm Palin’s appearance in the auditorium with theater seating, where 564 of an available 2,500 tickets have been sold.
Palin, the Republican Party’s 2008 nominee for vice president and a possible 2012 presidential candidate, will be accompanied by her husband, Todd Palin, and the couple’s baby son, Trig…
The organization announced the extra gathering when they learned Palin would join keynote speaker Michael Steele, chairman of the Republican National Committee, at the sold-out banquet.
The peg for the FNC item is the ongoing freakification of her that I wrote about in the context of that Eminem video. The more tabloid nonsense washes in with the news tide, the more it erodes her credibility. (Latest chapter in the Levi/Palin feud: Sarahcuda insists that “over my dead body” would Johnston have been allowed to live with Bristol in their home.) Let’s try a patented Hot Air poll on this slow news night to see where you’re at on the question of career-saving. Option three is there mainly for our three lefty trolls. I’m more curious to see the split between options one and two. If you choose the latter, feel free to explain in the comments what you have in mind.

You have nothing the veracity of the story has not been refuted.

This is another obvious lie. It’s been refuted again, and again. You are a delusional liar and a windbag. Any more lies?

So only 9% of voters out of 7500 respondents think Sarah is finished in politics.
AP: sound like a refutation of your premise but I know your boss Michelle must be pleased with the results.
For you AP that must be your own personal definition of AMBIVALENCE.

If this were 29 years ago, Poptech would be touting George H. W. Bush over Ronald Reagan. His “logic” would have forced him to do so. In a battle of resumes between Bush I and Reagan, Bush would’ve won hands down.
‘Nuff said.
ROFLMAO!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks for setting the record straight, Poptech! It’s great that you always provide links to FACTUAL data to back up your posts, unlike most of the palin-messiah-lovers here.

I skimmed through the comments and did not see where you have answered why it was IMPORTANT FOR sarah to be at the Alfalfa Club dinner. She told her fellow GOP-er’s she was too busy in Alaska to hang out with them that weekend. But you/someone said the Alfalfa dinner is, LIKE, way important so she just had to go, stiffing “her own party”!
So why was it sooo IMPORTANT for the sarah messiah to hang out with the Obama messiah?
I’d really like to know the answer to this.

As is FACTUAL data can’t be massaged and manipulated any way we like…

Excuses. Nobody’s talking about Barry’s middle name. And those who do don’t pretend it’s a resume.
Of course you do. Pathetic and irrelevant.
So she should be embarrassed that she’s no longer the mayor, only the governor of the state? And you actually choose to write things like this? How pathetic was the bashing you decided not to use?
So you educate me that she did something I said she did? Really?
But government experience at every level below the office of governor that she now holds. With her governor’s experience, she’s pretty much made a clean sweep of relevant government experience to take the next step up: president.
Oh, I suppose she could go for Senate or Cabinet, but there are plenty of presidents — most recent presidents — who never did either.
Anonymously sourced == fully sourced? Interesting viewpoint.
As for not being able to spin the facts, that’s exactly what you’ve been trying to do with this phony resume. I really don’t think I’m breaking new ground by pointing this out. You just need to be reminded sometimes that no one really buys the B.S.
