Sarah Palin's Alaska - Will it help or harm her political aspirations?

I don't really care. As long as she never becomes president, I think we'll all be fine. People only like her because she's a woman and because she's so real, but deep down I think we all saw exactly who she was during the election for president last time. She didn't know anything and when interviewed, practically made a fool of herself. I think it's great that a woman is so involved in politics and I don't really care that she's a democrat or republican. My biggest problem with her is that she has no idea what she's doing and for her to want to run for president... that's just showing how much more of a fool she is.

When I think of Sarah Palin, I think of George Bush. If you think about, he was stupid and didn't have any idea what he was doing with this country, but the republicans decided to vote him in for a second time. Now, look where that got us. Our entire country is ruined and we're scrambling for food in some places. It's an outrage. And everyone is blaming Obama, but it took Bush 8 years to ruin this country- it's not going to get fixed overnight, no matter who is president. Bush ruined this country, which leaves the fools that voted him in to be at fault for our country's state of panic.

If and when I vote again, it will surely not be for Sarah Palin- if she even makes it on the ballad, which I highly, highly doubt. I mean, she even said it herself on her TV show, "I'd rather be out here in the wilderness than in a political office!" What kind of an idiot says that on live TV if she wants to run for president?

And I think the only reason her show got as many views as it did, was because people were curious and wanted to see how much of an idiot she is in real life. I even watched it- and it only helped to prove my point.

My opinion: She became a joke when she ran for Vice President. Everyone thought she was completely incompitent, and she is. Then, she quit governor and now she's milking America for even more money by running a TV show? I honestly don't even see her running for another political office again, because she's awful.

Sarah Palin no longer has political aspirations. She's joined the 'chattering class'. She's become a right-wing pundit, and a pundit's goals are totally different from those of a politician or political candidate.

Ever wonder why Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, etc. never run for office? I mean you think it would be an obvious idea since they're so popular, so uncritically believed by their fans. But someone like Rush Limbaugh, he has maybe 10 million fans who adore him and believe everything he says, at the cost of maybe 50 million folks who hate his guts and see him as emblematic of everything that's wrong with America. This controversy actually fuels his career--the more people who hate him, the better he does. Limbaugh even used to brag that he was 'the most dangerous man in America'.

For a pundit (like Rush or Sarah Palin) this controversy is success. But for a politician it's DEATH. Because a politician has to get a majority of the votes. It doesn't matter how much his fans adore him, each of them gets only one vote, and they are a distinct minority.

At the end of the 2008 election, Palin had the highest name recognition of any Republican in the US. She decided to capitalize on this by gallivanting around the Lower 48 and making speeches, 'writing' books, doing pundit shots on Fox News, etc. She quit her job in politics so she could make the big money she's making now. Her fans adore her, but even a majority of Republicans don't believe she's qualified to be president. She's more like the party's mascot than its leader.

Wow. if so, each final mom accessible greater helpful get lower back into the kitchen. someway, vp of the united states or Governor of Alaska is greater significant than as many do, a "profession" at Walmart to attend to to pay for a sparkling vehicle. no person asks this of the male politicians. no person asked of Hillary, or Michelle. no person mentions that her husband will stay with the toddler. all human beings forgets her daughter's toddler replaced into her mistake and her accountability. Why could she stay domicile to guard a grandbaby? the place are the feminists backing this woman up? Do they not using fact she is prolife? Equality my butt. "decision" my butt. You act as though vice chairman or Gov will wait around for her until eventually the youngsters are older.

I think it will help her. It makes the Palin haters look awfully unfair and mean spirited with their slurs and mud. Middle class Americans look at this and see a family woman that they can relate to, one that has more in common with the people than the professional partisans in Washington.

THey were ruined when she quit her job as Governor; And the scandal with her daughter and her appearance on DWTS, and her new reality TV series only dug her grave deeper; I doubt anyone, not even her supporters, really take her seriously anymore, and I can safely say, she will NEVER be president.

hurt.

she already became a joke when she quit as governor

but now, she put her whole family in the spotlight. yeah, she is supposed to be showing alaska as well, but this is the woman who throws a big stinky fit any time someone says anything even remotely mocking about any of her kids, and now she puts them on public display? she is setting herself up for a slew of insults

She is already great, show or no show. But it is very nice of Her to do stuff that Liberals can lie about. Forget Her kids, If She had a cat, You libs would kick it. Someone should get rid of Her new neighbor anyway possible. In a nice manner that I would approve of.

All I know is that Palin supports wolf hunting, and thusly, I hate her eternally and will not vote for her for anything.

Neither.

Palin's political aspirations were smashed when she quit as governor.

She's just chasing the mighty dollar now. She'll never be elected to another office.

I only recently caught a glimpse of this show and in my opinion she came across pretty dumb which I would think will harm her political aspirations.
