Sarah Palin has started her own PAC, modeled after Hillary’s HillPac. Front page says:
Dedicated to building America’s future, supporting fresh ideas and candidates who share our vision for reform and innovation.
SarahPAC believes America’s best days are ahead. Our country, founded on conservative principles and the fight for freedom, must confront the challenges of the 21st century with integrity, innovation, and determination.
SarahPAC believes energy independence is a cornerstone of the economic security and progress that every American family wants and deserves.
SarahPAC believes the Republican Party is at the threshold of an historic renaissance that will build a better future for all. Health care, education, and reform of government are among our key goals. Join us today!
Already joined.
Me too…and donated to the cause!
Of course, I was also one to chant “Straight girls for Bush” along with my dear pal while on vacation in (crazy, corrupt, and very left) Chicago when the riot teams were dispatched for the hundreds demonstrating against President Bush.
Hey, why pass up an opportunity to be witty and make a politcal statement!!!
I joined as well and will be donating!
Already donated!
This bitter turf war between SarahPAC Shakur and the Notorious O.B.A.M.A. will end in tears my friends.

I fully support Sarah and believe she is the only answer to Obama in the future.
I will donate at every opportunity to the Pac.
Very cool that she started her own PAC. I hope she’s successful with it.
I don’t know whether she will be our nominee in 2012, or whether she’ll be my first pick if she runs. But I do know that we do need her to be one of the leading lights in our party. We need to dump the old guard and bring in new faces.
During the campaign I was fortunate enough to see Palin live and in person. I saw her at a rally in my hometown of Leesburg VA. I got there early and was within maybe 40 or 50 feet from her and Todd. It was one of the thrills of my life!
On the same note as the need for new faces, I’ll be extremely disappointed if Mike Duncan retains his role as Chairman of the RNC. I’m for Michael Steele all the way.
What a sad thing to see people running to a clueless “candidate” like Palin. She lost the election for McCain and will lose it again in 2012.
You would be better off voting for a dead cat than Palin. At least a dead cat won’t ramble on cluelessly on national TV.
@Captain Obvious: no, we just have one as president
Go Sarah! You can count on me.
I am Sarah…of course I joined!
@Captain Obvious: What a sad thing to see people running to a clueless “candidate” like Palin. She lost the election for McCain and will lose it again in 2012.
Why is it that when I see comments like this, it just reaffirms to me that the left is scared to death of Gov Palin? What I saw was Gov. Palin rallying the conservatives, John McCain lost the election all by himself, and he would have lost by a far greater margin if Sarah had not been on the ticket.
As for rambling on like an idiot, obviously, you never watched the One without a teleprompter? Talk about a babbling idiot.
I joined and I’ll contribute all that I can. I feel a WHOLE lot better about SarahPac than I did about “Country First” Pac. Funny, I haven’t recieved anymore e-mails from Country First pac, not since I replied with a rather nice e-mail
Sarge
I joined today, too, and will pass it on to my Sarah friends!
It should have been obvious to Capt. Obvious, but obviously wasn’t, that Sarah was not the reason for the loss in the last election–she energized the base tremendously, and obviously.
Mostly, we can thank the MSM for not doing their job in finding out who BHO is and isn’t. And, for their constant misrepresentation of the War on Terror and President Bush to the American people. Thankfully, not all were brainwashed by their agenda.
Thanks for the link. Joined gladly. For the first time since the coronation, er, inauguration, I’m feeling optimistic about the future.
Captain Clueless, er, Obvious is just bringing a living example of the desperate need the left has to marginalize Sarah Palin at all costs. She scares the crap out of them; they can’t have someone young, articulate and enthusiastic energizing the conservative base.
I am in!
as for the Captain….
Please, Please Don’t Frow me inta dat bryor patch!
Never interrupt your enemy while he’s making a mistake.
Joined as soon as I saw it! This is what I’ve been waiting for!
@RandomThoughts:
[She scares the crap out of them; they can’t have someone young, articulate and enthusiastic energizing the conservative base.]
Thanks for emphasizing “conservative” base, Random, as I thought since my last post that I should have done so as well. I spoke to many conservative-leaning Independents and Democrats during the last election campaign who were HUGELY energized by Sarah, and were voting for McCain because of her.
By the way, I briefly visited your blog and enjoyed and appreciated your contribution to conservatism there!
Why do people who have accomplished very little in the way of service to their fellow Americans feel entitled to denigrate and carp at those who demonstrate a significant dedication to investing their life in serving others? They vigilantly work to tear down good people(and their family) in order to sound superior. Only the foolish are fooled by such small minded people. I can’t wait to cast my vote for Sarah Palin. I for one recognize her accomplishments, her common sense, her decency, and above all, her determination to do what she knows needs to get done. Time after time. Go Sarah!!!
If I get a stimulus check it goes to Sarah.
Does also apply to people who place comments with links to “Obamimable” cartoons in a post that attacks the man and his wife? Looks like you were attacking Obama way before Gov Palin even was out as a member of the ticket. Unless this was a different “Dale” who was commenting on FA.
Blast, the link doesn’t show anything. Both Obamas were on the campaign circuit before Sarah Palin was chosen as the VP candidate. For anyone with an opinion of either, fair game.
Missy, I am not being thin skinned on this topic, Dale is. I tend to find it hypocritical to say one thing and do another, provided both Dales are the same person that seems to be the story. As far as Gov Palin, I wish her luck and best wishes to her new granddaughter. Life goes on.
@blast:
First of all, that was a different Dale.
Second, American politics has been a dirty business since the days of George Washington. Nothing’s changed. Nothing ever will.
For the sake of consistency, please point out any post that you made complaining about the vile treatment that President Bush received over the last eight years. Point it out for us.
Whining is for wimps.
I agree with you, and for the record I was not defending Obama, nor Palin, I was merely pointing out that what this “Dale” was saying was in stark contrast to what another one was doing. Actually I would love to see less personalization in attacks, toward Bush, Palin, Obama or even each other. From the privacy of their own homes people can say some scurrilous things.
I’ve signed up.
I’ve read in the Politico that Sarah has been invited to the Alfalfa Club Dinner in DC. No press allowed but would be interested to hear the unofficial chatter.
@Captain Obvious: @StephaniePlume:
Thank you, Captain Oblivious and StephaniePlumesOfSmoke. or should I say, Tokyo Roses? LOL. A little comic relief is always appreciated.
“Clueless’s” moronic reign will indeed “end in tears” for a great many people.
O’Blinko is wrong on the economy, wrong on terror, wrong on abortion, wrong on everything, as are our two new court jesters. Unfortunately, unlike Oblivious and SmokeNMirrors, ZERO-B has the power to cause a great deal of harm. And I don’t doubt for a moment that he will.
Sarah Palin, I’m with you, and have been since I first heard you speak. Yep, and I voted for you and that other guy, too, even though I wasn’t crazy about him. But, now that you’re on your own, I am even more optimistic.
And I’ll be with you as long as you DON’T EVER call Islam a respectable “religion of peace” and as long as you NEVER give the fox the keys to the henhouse.
Democrats love Sarah. She really can get you wingnuts hot and bothered.
Keep drinking the koolaid , boys. I really hope she’s your canidates in 2012.
She’s hot !

You’re welcome yonason.
The conservatives on this site certainly need to laugh.
Palin for Commerce Secretary?
Oh, that evil Sarah Palin, how about a threefer. I’d trade Obama, Blago and Burris for one Sarah Palin.
“The AP headline says “Fallen oil prices a chink in Sarah Palin’s armor.” Huffington Post adapts that to read “Sarah Palin In Trouble As Oil Prices Fall: AP.” The actual piece quotes Larry Sabato saying that tough economic times will limit the governor’s ability to travel and Sen. Kim Elton, a Democrat “rumored to be up for a post in President Barack Obama’s Interior department,” saying Alaskans will look back fondly at the last two years as the state heads into a period of low oil prices and tougher times. Tucked away in the middle of the story:
“The state has socked away $1 billion in an education fund for the next school year and education officials say another $1 billion is expected go into the fund this year for future use. More billions went into state savings as well, Palin said. “We’re more prepared than other states because of the prudence there,” Palin said recently. “We crossed that first hurdle.”
The state currently has $6.6 billion in its constitutional budget reserve fund that it could tap into. A few billion dollars more also is available from other pockets, said Juneau economist Gregg Erickson, a longtime Alaska budget watcher. Given Alaska’s robust reserves, the state is well-prepared to weather the next two years, Erickson said. As to how long reserves will last after that, there are too many factors involved to say for sure.”
If only the country was as well prepared to weather the next two years as Palin’s Alaska.”
