If Karl Rove wants Palin out of the picture for 2012, don't you think the evil bastid could
come up with any number of devious underhanded tricks to blow her off the map? I think he could.

1. Underhanded tricks? Yes.
I suppose she'll become fodder for the Supermarket tabloids (Read about Sarah Palin's secret affair with Levi!!!!)

2. But tabloid news only makes nutcases like Palin more popular to the baggers.
An affair with Levi would only result in more support from the boner facter.

5. Well, they haven't "reported" her having an affair with Levi
Edited on Wed Nov-03-10 08:50 PM by Jack Rabbit
If that doesn't work, how about Levi's mother?

3. Certainly he can
A sleazy snake that bugs his own office, only to blame it on others, is capable of anything.
Ms. WolfKiller erred big-time by taking him on.
She thwarted his plan of a RePuke Senate by championing the Tea-Bag wackos that had no chance of winning.
He won't forget that she tripped him up.

6. This is all part of the lie, KKKarl WANTS Palin to be just where she is.
That way when he introduces us to a turd, FAR FAR WORSE THAN you know who the world will think they are a genius next to Sarah (and they might be, criminal genius that is).

Just because KKKarl says something, doesn't mean he really means it! Hell, he is the Child of Lies! I bet you this is all part of his next horrible plan to fuck up everything good and decent.

11. No
Rove/Cheney/Poppy/Kristal are One-World Government establishment neo-cons. Palin and the Tea Baggers, while right-wing, are not their breed.

12. You are right and that is why he wants her there! That is my point!
He will run Coke against Pepsi in 2012 and make Pepsi sound like swill from the Rio Grande! You keep your enemies in the spotlight for good reason imo.

13. Sarah could be just as big a puppet as Junior was
They're both clueless

And why NOT have Sarah out gathering up the Tea Party people?
Just smart if you're keeping your options open

8. I think you're giving Rove too much credit.
He lost any power he had when Bush left office. This is a new breed of GOP moving in and Karl is on the outs.

Sure he's a big (really big) talking head on the news networks but his current power in the Repube party is miniscule.

Don't worry - if Palin runs in 2012, Gingrich, Guiliani, Huckabee, Romney will be happy to dish the dirt on Palin and get her out of the race.

10. Then how do you explain Ted Stevens a few months ago?
Then a few weeks ago the prosecutor commits suicide. Hmm.

14. haha, he wasn't even in the Senate anymore. Why would anyone want to kill him??
Well...let me rephrase that, I'm sure many people didn't like him, but why would Rove want to kill him or Palin?? You're grasping for straws on that one.

You must still be in shock from the election results last night. Have a beer and play some video games or something to get your mind back to normal :)

9. Nope, she's teflon with her base. There's nothing she can do that will dissuade
her 20 - 25% (depending on polling).

She's got a solid gold base who will love her no matter WHAT story is cooked up. She's got them utterly convinced the "mainstream media" is out to get her! So any "attacks" will simply be poor persecuted Christian, patriot Sarah! :sarcasm:

They love her. Karl Rove has no persuasive powers here.

If Karl is smart, and wants power enough, he'll actually persuade her to accept his message massager, his PR team to make her presidential. She only needs another 10% more of the population to be the nominee.

Karl's ability and desire to be a kingmaker and big thug in Washington depends on whether he can stomach Sarah. I posit that remains to be seen. If Sarah becomes the big kahuna in the nominee process, expect all Rethug kingmakers to fall in place, convinced of their own invincibility in manipulating their candidate.

Sarah really has no skeletons. I am convinced she is loyal to Todd. Unless someone can ferret out the Trig story, her other transgressions with other Rethugs in AK politics will be tamped down as "politics as usual". She'll skate personally and she's spent the past 2 years building cred (in her mind) to run in 2012
