I think we have plenty of conservative talk pundits. She's doing a good job as Governor in Alaska, why not stay there and continue?
I believe that she'll be a viable national candidate in the future. We'll need those also. After "The Messiah's" inaugeration (God forbid), I'm forecasting Depression, rather than Recession.

Not so fast Chad! Some of the polls are showing a rebound for McCain-Palin! I would not go so far as to predict the outcome of this election! I also would guess that Vice President Palin would still be a great spokesperson for hunting and firearms ownership! Further I doubt that a Vice President Palin will be relegated to a Dan Quayle-esque role of cutting ribbons, misspelling the names of common tubers, paying respects to two-bit foriegn leaders and the like; the women who swing the election to McCain-Palin will not allow that!

I agree with the others that think she could become a viable Presidential candidate in 4-8 more years. Hope she sticks with it. Liberals would love to see her enter the media and stay out of politics. Reminds me of a supplier we had. They hired our guy who persistently gave them the most trouble. Philosophy was, if you can't beat them, hire them.

Honestly Anthony - the "unintelligent" label was frequently hurled at Reagan. It didn't stick to him, as it was proven time and again to be untrue, and it won't work against Palin. Reagan was a prolific writer and held consistent, highly regarded ideas about the proper role of limited government, the Constitution, and the ability of man to live life in pursuit of his own interests, absent the meddling hand of government. Palin shares those beliefs. She and her husband demonstrate those beliefs on a daily basis.

As to Mr. Love's query, perhaps Palin's next role in public life should be that of a public speaker or commentator, as Reagan did while touring the country on behalf of GE. Suggestions by the popular culture weenies at hollywoodreporter that she become a media star proves their tunnel vision. In the U.S. perhaps 10 million people might watch a popular show on TV on a single night. To me, that stat indicates that 290 million do not.

(It is encouraging to see Mr. Love moving in the right direction, away from the plastic soul-sucking life of celebrity rags and into the real life of flesh, bone and steel where the Palins reside.)

i think macain palin will win! however lets asume they don,t.we will have to survive two years of commies in the house,senate and as leader of the not so free world obama scary i know. we will however have something double the size of the reagen revelution or the contract with america two years later!! Rich you said that at least a clinton would not be in office i disagree.do you not see the danger we are in?not just the 2cnd amendment but the whole constitution!! we would be better off if they both moved to france, but these days i,l take a clinton over a obama anyday.atleast we know what we are getting in a clinton.Barack hussein obama is a steath canidate who votes present most of the time.What is he trying to hide?I hope we don,t find out!!! If he does win we should all buy a brand new gun while we still can.

I have been through many election where the polls are manipulated to favor the democrat. For instance, four years ago the polls kept saying Kerry was winning in Virginia. The media was even saying on election day that the exit polls had Kerry winning Virginia. As we know, he lost by several points.

In the present case, the media is in the tank for Obama so they make it look like he has a lead. Some of the polls count registered voters, rather than likely voters. We need to get out and vote. Don't let the socialist Obama experiment go through.

McCain/Palin will win because America is getting tired of obama's constant comparisons of Bush/McCain being the same. Americans are finally realizing that obama never voted outside his party and they are also realizing that Bush had his hands tied in his second term with the dems controling both house and senate. I also am intrested as most of Americans as to when obama will turn up with his birth certificate from Hawaii. Or will he ignore the demands from states asking for it???

according to obamas web-site his thoughts on gun control are as followed. No concealed weapons except for retired police officers or military persons. No fully auto-matic except for police and military use. public cant posses them because they are designed to kill people not animals (which is true) carrying hand guns is protected under the constitution so that will also be allowed. To me that all doesnt seem bad. You all have to remember that gun control in a state issue not a federal issue and he said he would not change that. So if you are concerned with this talk to your congressman or woman or your senator.

BoogieBear:
For someone to refer to Sara Palin as "not the brightest bulb in the tree" then tell why they're voting for Obama, is inane! The only one who makes Obama look bright is Biden. Obama would be the happyman at Wallyworld if not for affirmative action.
Please note: No one is laughing at us since Saddam stretched a rope. Even Khaddaffi in Libya disarmed because he was afraid of us. With support from Congress, we would've disarmed more countries.

I grow tired of hearing this same old rhetoric that I've heard since the dawn of time in every election season from both Republicans and democrats. Once this election is over we can get this blog back to a hunting blog rather than a forum for conservatives to complain about and attack democrats. On the flip side I am also tired of hearing democrats defend themselves on this blog against republicans. In all reality bureacratic inertia is in full effect so nothing is going to change no matter who is elected anyway. That's the way it always has been and always will be in a two party system. In January we're still going to see a two front war, a horrible economy, no health coverage for many U.S. citizens and the same guns on the shelves of stores no matter who is elected. We'll also still be a democratic nation [no communism or fascism] where we'll all enjoy the same rights that we've always enjoyed The sad fact is that on this blog all people seem to care about is guns anyway. Let's just hunt and talk about something else other than politics for a change.

i think all the candidates suck eggs

silverarrow, if its not a state issue why can you carry hand guns in some states but not in others. nice speech by the way. If you need a fully auto-matic rifle to protect yourself than you might want to consider moving from wherever you live. If not than stop bitching already. And when the economic leaders came together it was the G8 convention. and bush didnt just summon them with his mind powers like you like to think. They are all part of that commitee, or call it what you will and they have meetings. they dont just drop everything and come when bush calls. You think russia and china care about what bush thinks or says.

If you read what I wrote above in full you would have seen that the Court did not deny that the states do have some say in gun carry issues (on a purely Constructionist basis they should have but that wasn't going to happen). For what it's worth I own only one semi-automatic rifle and that is a .22. The idea of banning any type of gun in order to aleviate crime is just wrong-headed. We haven't banned cars to stop drunken driving, we have increased the consequences for doing it.

In my last post I wasn't talking about the G8 Summit but the meeting which came a couple of weeks later at the Whitehouse.
