At least she is saying what I want to hear. Obama usually says the opposite of what I like to hear.

With regards to Palin's "performance" during the 2008 election cycle, she was drawing much bigger crowds than McCain was. She was also willing to go "into the lion's den" of strong Democratic Party states and campaign. However, McCain and his lackeys couldn't abide her being able to do that. Years ago, even before the 2008 elections, I ran across an article that ran in an Alaska magazine, in which they spelled out how she took British Petroleum to task, even after a prior agreement, and got more concessions for Alaskan citizens.
The media and the Democratic Party leadership fully recognized her as a very strong conservative that could have hurt them badly. That is why they worked so hard to paint her in a negative light. Even the comment about "seeing Russia from her house" was not attributed to her. That was Tina Fey playing the part of Palin.
Remember, Democrats of all stripes (leadership or otherwise) recognize that strong conservatives have to be constantly attacked and lied about. It even appears here on OSA.
Now, if those wishing to detract from her abilities and qualities would like to provide us with factual evidence, I'm certainly willing to look it over. While I willingly and intentionally bash a number of Democrats in leadership and other high positions, it is usually with evidence of what they have done.
EDIT: I erred slightly. I said the article was in Alaska magazine about the negotiations with BP, but it was actually from another source. Unfortunately, the article is too big to embed within the forums, so I'll just provide a link instead:
A Negotiator Without Preconditions
The article describes the "power" that British Petroleum was used to having with regards to countries and governments. Pretty impressive that Sarah Palin took them to task.

I have always liked her. She Is hot, she likes guns and the outdoors, and she ain't afraid to stand up to our dumb rear president.
The fact she gets under liberals skin so much is another factor to like her for.
ditto YukonJack
She was still a better choice than her RINO running mate that the media selected for the party, threw that election on purpose.
Sadly too many, even on gun boards, are not enlightened enough to know that.
Yep. I still don't know what the grand plan was, but it was pretty clear to me that McCain didnt want to win.
