Sarah Palin’s Book Doing What It Was Intended

Published by AJStrata under AJStrata's GUT, Sarah Palin

Got Sarah’s book (actually we got two copies so the political junkies did not have to take turns) and just started reading it. Might comment on it more – probably won’t though. It doesn’t seem to require a lot of over analyzing and fact checking by media and blogger mental midgets.
One of the things Americans [...]

Palin’s Entry Into VA Elections

OK, I am a huge Palin fan who is stymied as to what this is all about:
“Virginia, hello, this is Sarah Palin calling to urge you to go to the polls Tuesday and vote to share our principles,” the former Alaska governor says in the call, which was provided to CNN by one Democrat who [...]

Sarah Palin’s First Misstep? Doubtful

The news is spreading that Governor Palin’s ghostwriter for her up and coming book is a far right wing evangelical. Which means there is a good chance Lynn Vincent is just like 70% of Main Stream America – who are the antithesis of the elites who make up the Political Industrial Complex that has been [...]

Birthers Helping President Obama & Liberal Democrats Dodge Responsibility For Their Policy Failures

 
The Birther fools out there are making any real opposition to the failed liberal policies of President Obama and the liberal old guard in Congress a laughing stock.
The angry-mob style protesters who have infiltrated town halls around the country are the non-organic product of “tea-baggers,” “birthers,” and the conservative fringe, two Senate Democratic leaders said [...]

Sarah Palin Is A Real Threat To The Political Industrial Complex

Published by AJStrata under 2010 Elections, Sarah Palin

I read yesterday about the nasty, viscous rumors swirling around the liberal fevered swamps. Seems when they lose something (like government run health care) their small, angry minds must search out satisfaction making up lies about their most feared adversaries – average Americans. And there is no larger threat to the sick, liberal, elitists than [...]

Rumors Of Palin’s Political Demise Are Wrong

Published by AJStrata under Sarah Palin

We are 3 years away from the 2012 elections, 3 years of abysmal economic conditions. And this far out, Governor Palin is clearly capable of winning the nomination and the Presidency:

Palin’s complaints about unfair treatment by the news media resonate with many respondents. Three-fourths of Republicans, more than half of independents and a third of [...]

Yeah, She’s Running And Ready To Rumble!

Published by AJStrata under Sarah Palin

I pretty well nailed Governor Palin’s strategy when she announced. Today there is little doubt to what she intends to do:
“I am now looking ahead and how we can advance this country together with our values of less government intervention, greater energy independence, stronger national security, and much-needed fiscal restraint,” the former Republican vice presidential [...]

Forget All The Palin Nonsense – She Running For President

Published by AJStrata under 2010 Elections, Sarah Palin

Final Update: For all those who think a bold move is a handicap, that is why you are in the peanut gallery and Sarah Palin is the talk of the weekend across this nation. I send this especially to some armchair experts in the conservative blogosphere who scratched their heads and claimed Sarah made a [...]

True Conservative Toomey Truly In Trouble

Well, this is no surprise:
A Quinnipiac University poll found Specter would defeat a conservative Republican who is in the race, Pat Toomey, if the election were held today by 53 percent to 33 percent.
But the picture was much closer if a popular former governor of Pennsylvania, Republican Tom Ridge, were to jump into the race.
The [...]

Bobby Is No Sarah

From what I hear about the GOP response by Governor Bobby Jindal last night it is clear Bobby is no Sarah. I know lots of my readers are resisting Palin in 2012, but there is an elephant in the room when it comes to who could challenge a bruised and beaten Obama in the next [...]

Moderate Man Of Steele Takes RNC Helm, New GOP Emerging

 
There is hope for the GOP, it has turned another corner and is back on a positive track. The GOP has begun the necessary process of ‘purifying’ itself from the unreliable far right (or ‘true conservatives’) who spend more time insulting fellow conservatives who don’t toe their line than making conservative progress in manageable steps. [...]

Will USSC Drive A Stake Through The Cult Of The COLB?

The US Supreme Court is considering one of many silly lawsuits questioning Obama’s US Citizenship – which I addressed for a while before boredom and good dose of bewilderment set in with the Cult of The COLB (aka, Certificate Of Live Birth). In the face of ever mounting evidence that Obama is a US Citizen, [...]

Palin Power

Sarah Palin confirmed in Georgia she was no albatross in the 2008 Presidential election.  For if she were one, there would not have been such a huge win for GOP Senator Chambliss there yesterday in the runoff for the US Senate.
Sen. Saxby Chambliss trounced Democrat Jim Martin Tuesday night, winning his second term by a margin [...]

Congratulations To African Americans!

I have to admit to feeling a lot of pride on the election of our first African American – hopefully from now on we can drop the “African” part since it is clear how Americans feel about race. I have the honor of coming from the first state to elect an African American Governor (VA-Douglas [...]

The Day After

It looks like the state polls were more accurate than I had hoped (which brings me to my retirement as a cynic on polls). Drudge has the national popular vote tally as:
OBAMA: 59,524,759
MCCAIN: 53,553,241
I am sure this is not a complete tally, there were a lot of close states, but it is close enough to [...]
