Palin, As Popular As Ever Even With Left's Unprecedented Attacks ,Gets Roaring Reception In Sold Out Address In Texas-

The Lubbock Avalanche-Journal reports that Sarah Palin's address to a packed audience at a fundraiser for the Lubbock Christian School was greeted by "frequent applause and cheers".

In the full report detailed below the standout quote from an attendee who was asked what impressed about Palin is:

“Her enthusiasm, her love for America, her honesty and her core values of representing the people and not just special interests.”

This reception, coming hard on the heels of one of the most intense campaigns of villification and now slander against Palin by the mainstream liberal media, proves that the public are not taken in by the left's vile antics.

This was further reinforced by the latest Rasmussen poll which shows Palin actually having risen in favor as a major contender Republican choice for president.

The day will come when the media will have to repay the terrible debt they are running up with the American public in lost credibility-in the meantime palinsails onwards to her positive destiny basking in the deserved adulation of audiences like those in Lubbock today.

"Despite the heightened level of security concerns, the Lubbock Christian School fundraiser featuring Sarah Palin garnered ample support from area residents and created a unique connection between Alaska and Texas.
Palin, former Alaska governor and vice presidential candidate, addressed about 1,400 people Monday night during LCS’ annual fundraiser at the Lubbock Memorial Civic Center.
Palin said Texas and Alaska are alike because they are “good beacons of freedom
and share similar values and work ethic, said Kristen Vander-Plas, president of the Lubbock Christian University College Republicans.
She said she was impressed by Palin’s willingness to go forward with her fundraiser appearance with added security despite the recent shooting of Rep. Gabrielle Giffords in Arizona.
Many in the audience were LCS alumni, Vander-Plas said, and the audience as a whole was receptive to Palin’s message as was evident in their frequent applause and cheers.
Some, like Bob Wood, were drawn to the event through sheer curiosity.
He said he came to hear Palin although he does not always agree with what she says.
Others were avid Palin fans wanting to see the woman who made a huge splash in American politics in 2008.
“I believe in Sarah Palin and what she represents for America,” said Linda Hunt of San Angelo, who won free tickets for the event. “Her enthusiasm, her love for America, her honesty and her core values of representing the people and not just special interests.”
Still, LCS alumni and sponsors said the main purpose of the evening was raising money for the school — having Palin present was an added bonus.
Kimberly Chitwood of Minnix Commercial Construction said someone as well-recognized as Palin at the annual fundraiser is a rare opportunity to attract people and support for the school.

State Of The Union: If Obama Has Shifted To The Right-Then We Might As Well Have A Real Republican,Like Palin, In 2012

America is returning to the natural equilibrium of being a center-right country after electing a leftist president due to a most unusual chain or circumstances. The majority of presidents have been from the right apart from an occasional interregnum due to wars usually.


The Bush years were no exception to this general rule and the wars plus a rabid ultra-liberal media running unchecked foster a climate of radical youth activism which helped elected a Democratic party Congress prior to the Obama ascendancy.


However, with Bush and Cheney gone and the public having had two years to many of leftist rule, the election in 2010 of a Republican House, and a majority of Governorships, was the first step in returning America to its natural state of things. The Senate and presidency in 2012 (along with the Supreme Court majority) will be the final act.


President Obama is "triangulating" as indicated in his State of the Union address-moving to the center. This is as per President Clinton's example-frankly, he has no choice of course, as he can't get any legislation through Congress and, not being an idiot, has seen which way the wind is blowing as regards any re-election chances he may have.


But this beggars the question, why in 2012 should the public elect a pseudo-Republican (which his erstwhile "progressive supporters" heartily agree he is, when America can have a real Republican president, like Palin for example, who can get conservative legislation through a conservative Congress?


This should be the overriding question of the 2012 election-it seems unlikely that Obama's coat tails would be long enough to bring in a Democratic House after the shellacking of 2010 even if he was re-elected so-why bother re-electing him at all?

UPDATE;Rasmussen confirms; [Latest Poll Shows Palin/Huckabee At 40% For GOP Nomination-Romney at 17%. Clear Sailing For Palin]

Further to the Washington Post poll as detailed below which shows the Palin/Huckabee vote at 40% and Romney at 17% the latest Rasmussen poll confirms the general trend.

Rasmussen has Palin/Huckabee at 36% and Romney at 24%. According to Conservatives4Palin Rasmussen is using a different set of internals which disfavor Palin/Huckabee as they poll a lower number of self described Evangelicals.

Even so, and allowing for this alternative methodology the result is still the same margin of error wise. If Huckabee does not run then Palin has a substantial lead and, based on the three opening states primaries; Iowa/New Hampshire/South Carolina, she should win 2 out of three and be well on her way to the nomination.

Interestingly, since the Rasmussen poll of November 2009 Romney has stayed the same at 24%, Palin is up one to 19% and Huckabee has dropped 12% to 17%. This shows that, even with all the mass of negative publicity the left generated against Palin after the Arizona tragedy the people who really count,t he Republican voters, still view her, and her moral foundations, which they view as Huckabee also sharing, unchanged ,and what they want in their candidate.


*************************************************
AS POSTED PREVIOUSLY

In a new Washington Post poll


21% of respondents advised they would support Huckabee 19% Palin and 17% Romney as detailed below.


No one else got into double figures and the latest left wing media selections for the GOP of the month Thune and Daniels hardly rated at all.


The 40% shared between Palin and Huckabee-a statistical tie are the only poll results that matter at this point in time for the 2012 election. The polls showing Palin 10 points behind Obama for example, two years out are meaningless as the Reagan polling below shows.


All that matters for Palin is,should she choose to run, how well will she do in the early primaries. Clearly, despite all the massive negative left wing media attacks she is still very popular with the base (80% in polls).


Polling has also shown that should Huckabee choose not to run, a strong possibility, then Palin is his supporters next choice. The numbers then, at this point, and should Huckabee not run, are very much on her side. Even Andrew Sullivan in a moment of lucidity when the PDS uterus fog lifted, said this week that he thinks the "nomination is still hers to lose" even given the media attacks and supposed general low poll rating.

Jewish Lesbians 4 Palin And Other Surprising Palin Support Groups (SATIRE ALERT)

That there are a substantial number of Palin support groups is hardly surprising given her huge following (over two million on Facebook alone)
The blog "Texas for Sarah Palin" has a drop down list (full list at http://blogs4palin.blogspot.com/ ) of some of this myriad of groups which range from Vets4Palin/Michiganders4Palin/Mom's4Palin and some obvious and some perhaps some not so obvious Blogging supporters.
It can be a certitude that this list as partially captured in this snapshotis but a small percentage of Palin support groups.
What is surprising however are the Palin support groups which are, so far, flying under the radar. In the interest of giving them the wider audience they deserve and to show, in a small way, that the mindless vile prejudice the vast majority of their group, who don't support Palin, exhibit in stark contrast to the loving kindness of this, no doubt persecuted minority, here are some of the "hidden" Palin support groups.

Abandoning "F" Word, New Leftist Civility Condemning "Centerist" Obama:They Now Say "Intercourse Obama"

The upcoming State Of The Union Address appears to be the last straw for the "progressive" i.e. liberal left. All their dreams of a new "Hope & Change"
progressive America lie shattered at their feet. How is that "Hopey Changey" thing working out for ya Kossacks?

The snarky comments, of the sort usually reserved for the bilious poison at Sarah Palin, is now focused on President Obama who is "triangulating" to the center, which announcement apparently, will be the main focus of his address to Congress.

This address marks, they seem to agree amongst themselves (quite a feat in itself which shows the real depth of their anger) the final proof that, all along, Obama was really, and variously, a slave to "Big Business", a Republican, Reagan in disguise, a hoodwinker, and etc.

Their most visible attacks are on themselves, in a mighty showing of self-flagellation- for ever having been taken in by the "shape shifter". And of course their are the vows never to work for him again, never to contribute to the DNC (who are responsible for foisting Obama on their innocent backs)again
and never to be fooled again (fat chance).

One has to, no I can't help it, revel in the Schadenfreude. We told them during the long 2008 campaign that they were buying a bill of goods for an empty suit, but so strong was the Bush hatred that whatever bit of commonsense the possessed was eaten away at by the vile poison that circulated in their veins.

The positive things from all this rude awakening are that the youth vote will stay at home in traditional numbers in 2012, and even if Palin is the nominee the progressives will be so embittered they may not be able to rise to the usual standard of enthusiasm to defeat her. They may in fact take a "it will serve them,the DNC, right if she gets elected, which would be grand of course.

The real facts of the matter are that no matter how left wing Obama is, which he is, he saw that with the "shellacking" last November that unless he ditches the left, he will also go down in flames. The left has nowhere to go, except into bitter hiding, but they represent such a small percentage of the electorate Obama no doubt figures he can more than make up for their loss by gaining Independents.

Here are just a few comments to savor (there are plenty more across the raving left blogosphere for those who can be bothered to look) as the left views their idols feet of clay.
FIREDOGLAKE
"I’ll admit it: Obama bamboozled me. I voted for him for the express purpose of keeping Hillary Rodham Clinton and the DLC out of the White House. So what did we get? You guessed it, the DLC.
I have no intention of lifting a finger for Obama or any other Democrat next year. Maybe they can get the corporations that fund Third Way to do their phone-banking and door-to-door work."

"Can we start calling him President I’m-Really-a-Republican-Whore now?"

WONKETTE (In an, even for them, particularly vicious attack)

"raise your hand if you thought that you'd be shitty drunk on a saturday night in 2011 fuming on our wonkettes about the sellout faux liberal negro muslin president who was too centrist once he moved into the white house?"

"Maybe we shouldn't say Fuck You to Obama. To show a bit of respect for the office perhaps we could say Intercourse You?"

Whilst all this is enjoyable the enjoyment is tempered by the fact that America had to endure two years of this administration, and even more sadly another (although neutered) two years. But on the other hand there is light at the end of the tunnel.
