Rush was defending her on Greta and called those making these accusations against her "gutless cowards"...Good for him.
He also said that 70% of those that supported McCain did so because of her and that if she wants it she could be the new leader of the party.
GOOD FOR RUSH!!!!!!!!!!

McCain's people are trying to blame the loss on Sarah to try to cover and mitigate their own failures in the campaign.

exactly!!!!! They are also trying to get rid of her so she is not the leader of the party and also the next president.

I say bring her on in 2012. My sense is that she'll get as far as, say, Duncan Hunter.

I doubt she would run. I think she may jump into a senate seat or something, who knows. But I would not underestimate her Tim...Look how possibly you and the media thought Bush would not get elected....
It depends greatly on how pushy Obama is with some issues. Lets remember that typically speaking voters are more conservative by numbers.
Anyway I have a good idea of some possibilities for the next term but I will keep that silent for now...

Bush was crowned by the party before day one of the campaign. I remember how put off I was by it, so I voted for Alan Keyes in the Colorado primary. Sarah Palin wouldn't be crowned. She'd have to run on her own ideas, and if she'd stand a chance of surprising me, she'd have to come up with some. I'd put her about on par with Duncan Hunter or Fred Thompson for traction on her own merits.

Well I also wanted Alan Keyes. I really wanted to see him as the first Black president, sadly he was called "uncle tom" for being a republican....
I like Fred Thompson as well but oh well...we are related on my Dads side.

Keyes seemed to be a straight shooter in the 2000 primary, so I voted for him. But I was living in Illinois when he moved from Maryland to Illinois to run against Barack Obama for the U.S. Senate. He became a carpetbagger in the very next senatorial election after he criticized Hillary Clinton for carpetbagging to New York for the senatorial election there. What a hypocrite! And he had nothing positive to say. That became the first year I voted for a third-party candidate.

The thing about McCain people piling on her is that she was McCain's choice. If she was as terrible as they are now saying, doesn't that make them and McCain look bad for trying to pull such a swindle on the American people? Throwing her under the bus makes them look foolish.

I think Palin will run for the Senate as either the apex of her political career, or as a springboard back into National politics. I'm at a point where common sense is a welcome relief to the agendas of the self-important/self-righteous bureaucrats and pundits of both parties--no matter how intelligent or talented or experienced they may be. She is a breath of fresh air and those who live in smoked filled rooms (whether from cigar or bong) can't stand it. As my wife said early on, "Hillary knows powerful people...Sara Palin is powerful.

I hear McCain is going to be on Leno soon. When that happens, I hope that he takes responsibility for selecting her as his running mate and tells the party to keep quiet.

McCain should have already made a statement to defend Palin. Where is he?

He is probably trying to reach across some isle somewhere! I am not thrilled with BO, neither would I be excited if JM had won.

Palin / Romney 2012
Palin / Rice 2012
She energizes women of integrity. The entire world knows Sara Palin now and 49% of America absolutely loves her.
