“I Could Beat Obama”!

There are times when I run across a statement by someone that just begs to be in my Anal-Ocity section for anal statements…..and this one is by Sarah Palin, bless her heart…..but after some thought….I have come to the inclusion that it may not be so anal after all……but first, the rest of the story…..

Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin said she believes she could beat President Barack Obama in the 2012 presidential election and is considering whether to run.

Palin said in an ABC News interview that she’s “looking at the lay of the land” for a possible presidential bid and “trying to figure that out, if it’s a good thing for the country, for the discourse, for my family.” When asked whether she could beat Obama, Palin, the 2008 Republican vice presidential nominee, replied, “I believe so.” ABC released excerpts from the interview scheduled to be broadcast Dec. 9.

Okay, dream on!  She is NOT running…she is a master at appearing as something she is NOT…and she is NOT presidential material…….enough said?  I will give her her props….her reality gig is steeped in political overtones….scenes of mama grizzlies protecting her young….her comment on the accusation of her being a quitter as she claims a rock face saying she must do it for no one will help her….do-dah…..do-dah….all to subliminally reinforce her political stands…..
I will also give her an “atta girl”…….for her constant playing the media to keep her name and face in the news….it is almost masterful…..it sells a lot of books and gets her a lot of speaking engagements for which she gets tons of cash for saying NOTHING….not bad for a failed governor and VP candidate…..you betcha!

  1. So, is it your supposition that we don’t need to worry since, amongst other things, Sarah Palin is “not presidential material”?

    So, then, presumably that means that GW actually WAS presidential material – or Obama come to that???

    Hmmm… thinking… scary!

    1. I know….but I was thinking along the lines of the GOP leadership….we have had numerous candidates that were not presidential material……she is just trying to sell books right now….

      1. Of course. But that doesn’t mean she could get the nomination…. Heck, she could be the most stable of a pretty wild bunch! And, with the nomination, anti-Obama/anti-Dem feeling could see her in the Whitehouse in 2012.

        Now THERE’S an interesting scenario!

      2. Oh God! I feel sick! She would most assuredly win the South but she would have a Helluva time in the West and Northeast….

        I hate this time of year! Real readership goes down and spam goes up……it just sucks!

      3. …”But that doesn’t mean she COULDN’T get the nomination”, that should be – duh – sorry!
