And in their most audacious plans, Tea Party groups are preparing to recruit challengers to run against high-profile Republicans they accuse of betraying them — as they did when they toppled Eric Cantor, the former House majority leader.
At the top of their list of potential targets are politicians like Senator John McCain of Arizona, a proponent of an immigration overhaul. Their fantasy candidate: Sarah Palin, Mr. McCain’s former running mate, who now spends much of the year at her home in Scottsdale, Ariz. Two prominent conservative activists, who spoke anonymously to reveal private discussions, said leading Tea Party figures planned to reach out to Ms. Palin to see if she was interested in running against Mr. McCain.
Hey that's what you get when you endorse your girlfriend to run for President and not your former running mate.
Personally I think it would be a kick in the ass to watch Palin go up against John McCain in Arizona. One can only imagine the oppo research he could use against her if she dared to challenge him.
However I think that John McCain, and the rest of Arizona, can relax.
Once again being a Senator is a J-O-B and Sarah Palin hates those.
So she is not going to run. However it is nice of the New York Times to confirm how much time Palin is spending in Arizona. Not that we all here at IM did not already know that.
Sarah Palin ain't runnin' no where except to the bank to cash her gullible followers Social Security checks and to deposit their pension and retirement money.
ReplyDeleteMaybe those "two prominent conservative activists" are the fools who believed that she REALLY had all those Facebook followers, and invested in her failed TV Channel?? An attempt to recoup at least SOME of their money from that turkey of a channel. Or, possibly, Taahhhd and Bristol, both so active in the conservative movement (yeah, right) I thought she was quietly trying to unload that bordello in Arizona, now that Bristles has been abandoned by Joey Junk.
ReplyDeleteSarah Palin, Fired again. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7K3sAUukWKk
ReplyDeleteShe's got a video up on FB now. Trig's eyes are fixed, his ear looks weird however. Tripp apparently was given strict instructions not to smile with his teeth showing as we'd see he's missing some, kid looks closer to 7 than 5. Sarah is wearing the "holes in the shoulder shirt" again, she must think she looks hawt in that shirt made for teens, silly bitch. All 3 dogs present & accounted for...
ReplyDeleteShe hasn't washed it since Louisiana either.
DeleteShe hasn't taken the shirt off since Louisiana.
DeleteThe scariest thing about Sarah Heath Palin is that she really thought she was qualified to be Vice President of the USA, and that she likely had plans to off McCain and become president. (insert CHILLS here.)
ReplyDeleteAt the very least she and Todd planned on sitting in on all policy meetings and becoming the power behind the throne, which would have depended entirely on whether McCain was inclined to appease their ambitions. If not....

Hey Gryphen, here's a couple of articles that you might not want to miss:

That silly bitch will never run for anything because a) she's too lazy to lay the ground work, and b) she is no longer considered to be a plausible candidate by anyone other than her drooling, addlepated cultists.
ReplyDeleteIf she were inclined to run and didn't have to worry about her dirty laundry being waved all over the place, she would never run for Senator. Our little Narcissist of the North settling for being being just one of 100 people all with the same title? And a "junior" senator to boot? No committee chair positions, etc. Please. Princess Idiotbritches doesn't roll that way. Why, the senate dining room would probably allow any old senator to have bendy straws, not just Her Highness!
She had a taste of the good life when John McCain, that fucking jackass, plucked her off her snowbank, jammed a pageant-walkin' princess crown on her empty little skull, and presto, she was the Queen of the World with the adoring, cheering crowds worshiping at her feet. No work needed on her part.
Someone else had done the monumental work involved in mounting a serious political campaign. Like Palin herself, the people willing to do the work for her are too stupid and ignorant, and simply don't have the connections and deep pockets needed for a major political campaign.
At most, she is regarded as a useful idiot that can be depended on to yank on her junkyard dog collar and bark her damn fool head off at the President and Democrats to agitate the base.
But she is not a team player, she is not cooperative, she doesn't take advice, she doesn't take orders, and is in general a loose cannon. All a high political position would mean to her is personal power and grifting opportunities. She wouldn't do what needed to be done to advance a particular political agenda. And the deep pockets money people know it.
Nefer, you are so on the money with this comment! You clearly have her number! LOL!
DeleteGreat Comment.
DeleteIt'll also go to her head that Smithsonian magazine put Sarah on their 100 most significant Americans list.
http://www.smithsonianmag.com/smithsonianmag/meet-100-most-significant-americans-all-time-180953341/?no-ist
(Part of the list):
First Women
Pocahontas
Eleanor Roosevelt
Hillary Clinton
Sarah Palin
Martha Washington
Hellen Keller
Sojourner Truth
Jane Addams
Edith Wharton
Bette Davis
Oprah Winfrey
I'd hope Sarah is there more for Palin's infamy than for being the least bit famous. As I cannot think of anything she's famous for that is positive or is a contribution to society or humankind now or in the future.
I feel sorry for those women that are named along side of Sarah Palin. This list appears very circumspect to me to show her on it! Doesn't make one bit of sense knowing what we do about the idiot!
DeleteShe is 'not' a fine example of womanhood to other women throughout the nation! Factual things have proven it time and time again throughout the years!

Fuck you Sarah Palin, you know damn well you are not running for anything.
Nobody wants to see your drunk kids drinking moonshine from the White House fountain.
Nobody wants to see the family prostitution ring in the East Wing.
Nobody wants to see Bristol's trial daddies marching in and out at all hours of the day.
What do you think President Sarah Palin will do when the NBA Champions are honored at the White House?
Will she be wetting her panties with all those African-American basketball players there?
What about Track? Will he fight everybody who calls his sisters cunts and sluts? He will be fighting night and day, 24/7, 365 days .
Aww shes dried up as Rocky's girlfriend brother said.
DeletePalin vs. McCain in the AZ Republican primary? That would give us Democrats a good chance of taking that Senate seat. Not to mention the fight to the death between the grifter Queen and Senator McCranky!
ReplyDeleteI think this is a great idea that those TP'ers think she might be interested in running against McCain.
ReplyDeleteWhat an opportunity to call her bluff!! Go ahead, Sarah. Go for it. I dare you. No - I triple dog dare you!!

"Oooooh Daddy, can I be VP? Can I? Can I? Can I?"
ReplyDeleteWhat a fucking moron.
Haha let them vote her in, she wont even work. She never worked. There will be a shadow whatever. She cant be told anything either. It will be a hoot to hear gossip every week.
ReplyDeleteSounds like this was the plan all along! Damn, our POTUS is brilliant! Two birds with one boomerang, and they didn't even see it coming!!!
ReplyDeleteWe would all love to see Sarah Palin challenge McCain. It would serve him right. And the ensuing blood bath would serve HER right.
ReplyDeleteThe fact they are eve consider Sarah Palin for any office is proof positive that the Tea Party is made up of a bunch of drooling morons.
Sarah Palin would never run. Even beyond the obvious reasons (terrible candidate, skeletons in her closets), her main schtick is that she's from Alaskaaaaaaaah. She won't give up that persona no matter how much time she spends in Arizona away from her kids.
ReplyDeleteOh how I wish she would run against him! First of all that's what he deserves after setting her loose on the world and secondly, since he still refuses to ce out and slam her publically, he would HAVE to if she ran against him. Oh what fun!!
