Laura Ingraham Right About Sarah Palin
Earlier this morning Laura Ingraham made an appearence on the Today Show. During that appearance Laura Ingraham claimed Sarah Palin was not a polarizing figure. Ingraham is actually right. Sarah Palin is not a polarizing figure in that just about everybody dislikes her. Even the majority of Republican do not want Palin to run for office. I do not think you are polarizing when your own party does not want you to run for office.

1. During 2008's election cycle I talked to a lot of "Independents" who found Ms. Palin very impressive
Every last one of them was a white male over the age of 60.


They'd say things like "she's a smart lady" or "she has a good head on her shoulders" or "she's a tough cookie" or the like.

Through it all, I consistently had the sense that she was exciting something other than their sense of political innovation.

2. However, she's Queen of the Teabaggers. A bunch of white people that feel
disenfranchised. Palin keeps some bad company.

3. Queen of the gang that couldn't shoot straight
Looks like all those militia men playing with their guns sure became invisible regular citizens when the FBI showed up this weekend. Old angry White guys. Maybe just because they realized they got old.

8. I know
My point was Ingraham accidentially got it right that Palin is not polarizing. I realize Ingraham was trying to compliment Palin. Ingraham was actually contradicting Matt Lauer's comment that Palin was a polarizing figure. It can only be argued that Palin is not polarizing in that most people do not like her.

5. Oh lord,
it's way too early to see the words "Laura Ingraham and Sarah Palin' in the same sentence. Actually Laura Ingraham is the only person I can think of that I despise more than Sarah Palin. Was the good christian wearing the usual cross around her neck?

6. Laura Inghram also told Stephanie Miller that Hillary Clinton would be President...
... and that it wouldn't be so bad.

7. My theory on SP
If she were to gain 30 lbs or suffer a facial disfigurement she would disappear from the radar completely.

This speaks to the depth and definition of her supporters.

White men over 60 and Sarah-wannabe women.
