Palin responds to Steve Schmidt: Just wait for the book, chump
posted at 6:47 pm on October 2, 2009 by Allahpundit
Dude, it’s going to be epic. Epic.
A spokeswoman for the former Alaska governor said Palin is holding her fire until her new book is released next month.
“The governor will write about all of this in her book,” Palin spokeswoman Meg Stapleton said in an e-mail, referring to the internal fighting that marred the final weeks of McCain’s president bid. “There will be plenty of time to talk about it then.”
I’m downright giddy at the prospect of high traffic and abundant content from November 17 until … forever. Maybe we’ll set up a little Hot Air book club, where I’ll periodically express my treasonous RINOish doubts about some of the things she says in there so that you guys can enjoy catharsis by telling me what a horrifying candy-ass I am. Two million hits a day or bust, baby. Meanwhile, Todd Palin’s finally upped and quit his job as a production operator for an oil company, which could be due either to (a) boredom and/or a desire to earn more in another profession, or (b) the fact that his family bank account will likely hit eight digits before Christmas. Enjoy retirement, Mr. P!

I just can’t decide who I dislike more Dems who fight
or RINO’s who don’t
oh hell, no votin present here, I HATE RINO’s!
At least have the courage of your warped convictions to admit your dems you ass….s and quit pretendiong to be Republicans.
Get the F out! Did I say I hate RINOs piss off Mcdumbass and by the way the 50 was meant for Sarah you washed up old fool.
However honorable you may have been in Vietnam you have been nothing but a tool and a fool since becoming a Senate Scum!

Silly Allah. It’s because he’s divorcing Sarah.
I know this MUST be true, because Democrat Underground, et al., are telling me so.

I hope she savages McCanus in her book so badly he slinks back to Arizona and stays there, or at least switches parties.

Schmidt has already been called out by others working for McCain. He must be very nervous.
What a twerp. Anonymous didn’t quite work out for him, did it?
AnninCA on October 2, 2009 at 8:26 PM
Maybe Liz Cheney can convince Petreaus to run with her. It’d be the uberhawk technocratic conservative ticket from bizarro world. Just might work

HornetSting on October 2, 2009 at 8:28 PM
Like Gov. Palin stated in her post resignation interviews she would like to build the conservative base in the Republican party to it rightful position on top over the power structure. These Rino idiots are just playing into her hand and they don’t even know it. She has done this before and Palin can and will do it again. Palin has one thing these fools keep forgetting and it is the most important thing MILLIONS of supporters.

Pretty entertaining but the key/interface I’m getting used to. My last FPS was the 2nd Half-Life 2 expansion where they killed Eli Vance. I’m still pissed off about that.

Ehh, i think Liz Cheney would need to win an election or 2 before she could run for president. but other then that, you put her with some eisenhower military type and that diffuses a lot of the democrat’s playbook right out of the gate, while providing a conservative agenda for the grassroots.

HornetSting on October 2, 2009 at 8:49 PM
I really like Liz, but she’s never held elected office so VP is probably a stretch right now. All her experience is in the State department with a focus on Middle East policies. So I’d rather see her as Palin’s Secretary of State. She and Palin would stare down Putin himself if needed. :D

In order to save fuel, NASA scientists used a “slingshot” maneuver by using the Moon’s own gravity to return the Apollo missions to Earth.
Clearly – here’s Sarah Palin, who’s not supposed to be a rocket scientist but apparently IS a rocket scientist – using Steve Schmidt’s own piss and vinegar to rocket her book sales out of the solar system.
Nice move Sarah … veeerrry nice move!

I’d vote for any combination of Palin, Pawlenty, and Liz Cheney. Pawlenty needs to prove he’s really a big-C Conservative, though.

Hey, it’s the closest he can get to the real thing.

Todd Palin quit his job in order to respond to all of the marriage proposals that Sarah is getting.

I don’t care who you are, that’s funny right there.
Anders on October 2, 2009 at 9:09 PM
Wonderful image, no? lol
I’m not sure who I’d want as Palin’s VP pic. Would be good to see one of the young up and coming GOP leaders. Solid fiscal conservative would be a huge plus.
And, just to toss a wee bomb into the mix, I’d actually like to see McCain as her Secretary of Defense. Most people’s beef with his squishiness is centered around domestic issues. He’s always been rock solid on national defense. And he’s another one who would not blink in a staring contest with Putin.
Plus, it would also free up a seat in the Senate for someone more conservative on domestic issues.
Kirin on October 2, 2009 at 9:10 PM
Don’t have to wait for Nov. 17th to call you a candyass Rhino, Allah. But I guess if you can withstand the tension so can we. (Just kidding of course. You do your job well here.)

Kissmygrits on October 2, 2009 at 10:08 PM
Or pulled the pin on a grenade and threw the pin!
These McCainiacs need to retire quietly or take a long fall on a short rope! This could get ugly!
If Sarah said she had book two comin I’d buy it now too.
Anyone ever been #1 and #2 before the books published. Hey maybe that’s why Mr. Palin quit his job. Quick announce your books coming out in six months or so, so we can make it #2.

I’m really sorry for saying something that brought such a raw memory to you. And, having young children myself, I can only imagine how difficult that this real experience they witnessed must be for them. And for you as well, dealing with it.
I hope you saw my entire comment, though. In context, it was clearly sarcastic, meant in total jest, but I can see how you would view it otherwise.
Thank you for your honest and thoughtful comment.
TXUS on October 2, 2009 at 10:23 PM
Allah, for months now I’ve been trying to figure out just where you get off. I mean, I think Huckabee is a witless populist clown and McCain just might have been worse than Obama, but I don’t go around slandering them in public venues (maybe just this once!) trying to generate flame wars.
I have to ask you straight out– whose side do you think you’re on?

james23 on October 2, 2009 at 10:51 PM
Palin is Bodacious.
And she needs to read the history of that brave lady to avoid repeating her mistake.
The MSM are like the legions of Rome arrayed against her.
So far she has eluded destruction at their hands, and caused some damage to their pets, but the real battles ahead require Sarah to get an overview of the winning strategies of history.
Churchill is probably the best place to start.
Great wordsmith and balls enough for an Empire.

Imus was on Cavuto’s FNC show today. When Cavuto told him about Palin’s book being #1 on both websites, Imus snarkily said she can’t even read a book, how can she write one,or some such nonsense.
That really infuriated me. I am so damn tired of the liberal cliche slamming Sarah’s intelligence. Imus went on to say how horrible and dumb she is, etc etc.
I thought Imus was supposed to be smart? He only displayed vapid, shallow stupidity to me.
I hope Sarah goes on his show and just sends him into a tizzy when this book comes out.

karenhasfreedom on October 3, 2009 at 1:14 AM
I’ve thought about it now AP and I’ve decided. You are not a cute and quirky horrifying candy-ass. You are an impediment, a dangerous negative voice in a positive movement. You are not a RINO, because then there would have to have been some cause to call you a Republican in the first place. I am calling on Michelle to dump your ass before you infect anyone else with your puerile sniggering. Just f***ing get lost already.
Tyrone Slothrop on October 3, 2009 at 1:18 AM
Because they are influenced by those who tell them who to support. Pawlenty maybe good for Minnesota, but does he bring the charisma, the excitement, to the party like Palin does? Like Lynn Cheney would?
I don’t think so. Not only do we need a STAR, we need proven leadership. Not saying Pawlenty doesn’t have leadership, just not the charisma.
Kini on October 3, 2009 at 1:53 AM
Imus just says that to anger and annoy people on the right for kicks.
He mentions it being a pop up book and all that just to get people going.
He’s not being serious.
B Man on October 3, 2009 at 2:33 AM
He sounded seriously disparaging to me when he completely dissed Sarah on Cavutos show today. I used to be neutral on the guy, now I can’t stand him any more than I can stand Letterman, who is a complete waste of air.
karenhasfreedom on October 3, 2009 at 3:19 AM
God yes, please, AP! I’m begging you! If you’re still not sure, why not just take a quick poll to decide what to do? (My money is on HUMPBOTS!)
