Sarah Palin rises to the top in the latest Public Policy Polling survey.


It is clear to me that Palin's "15 minutes of fame" has become a life appointment to service to the dynamic conservative cause that is defined by patriotism and the willingness to put self, last.  Some neo-poops argue that Palin is a "quitter,"  failing to understand the fact that "they" find it necessary, four years later,  to develop one hate filled attack after another precisely because she is not a quitter.  


When she left the governorship, owing half a million dollars,  she had a choice:  owe mounting legal fees that threatened home ownership and the very health of her marriage, or admit that the Left had won the first round,  go and write that book,  and come back to the fray with a vengeance and  . . . . . . .  money,  enough money, in fact, that driving her from politics would be impossible.  And so, the Left fusses and fumes,  because they got out played by someone they think is not as smart as they.  She is still here and now,  she has shut their mouths by challenging their Goliath to a dual,  out in the middle of the arena,  in front of God and everyone.   Anyone reading this,  knows that Sarah offered a debate challenge to Obama.  Everyone knows that this was summarily ignored by not only Obama,  but his trash talking minions in the social Marxist media.  NBC/CBS/ABC/MSNBC/CNN/SNL/the TIMES/ - none of these "news" outlets even mentioned this story for fear that Obama would be embarrassed.  I love it, because everytime I hear a lib talk about Sarah's lack of intelligence,  I get to say,  "Dude,  take her to the mat,  accept her debate challenge, and prove your point or . . . . . . . . . .  shut the hell up."  


Anyway,  now we learn that her popularity has given her the opportunity to be one of a few driving  the political debate in this country.  A return to constructional principles,  a renewed love for this great nation,  an expansion of free-market, commonsense capitalism,  are a few of the issues Sarah Palin has brought back in vogue. 

What many see as "shocking" is the polling result (by Public Policy Polling) that Governor Palin may be the most liked Republican in the country.  Understand that we are talking about "favorability," and our First Lady owns the market in this category.  In PPP, a publication of the hard Left, anti-Palin, Washington Post,  Sarah scored in the 68 percentile bracket in terms of favorability with an unfavorable rating of just 20 percent.  Romney,  come in with a healthy set of numbers, as well,  scoring 54 and 35, favorable/unfavorable.    

Because Dean Debnam, President of Public Policy Polling,  is a social Marxist,  he has no clue as to why this [Palin] result  has surfaced.  Debnam  is left with nothing but wild guess as to the "sudden" popularity of Governor Palin:

“The fact that Sarah Palin is now more popular than any of the Republican presidential candidates is a real sign of the toll the campaign has taken on all of the contenders’ images,”

Nonsense.  Some twenty years ago,  Sarah Palin literally came out of her kitchen to join the political fray,  first on her local school board,  then as mayor, then governor.  Her inclusion in John McCain's presidential bid,  kept the contest from being more of a "wipe-out" than it was.

She has been as consistent a tea-party leader as Michele Bachmann,  and a more substantive speaker than nearly anyone on the political scene,  today,  and I include B Obama in this comparison.  She won her gubernatorial debate in her bid for Alaskan governor.  She won her VP debate with "Can I call you Joe" Biden.  Her first book, Going Rogue,  has sold more than 3 million copies and was the the number one non-fiction publication in 2010 (per the NY Times).  Her VP acceptance speech brought down the house,  back in 2008.  Her keynote speech at this year's CPAC, did the same and then some. In fact,  at CPAC,  the convention organizers had to open up two additional rooms to allow for the crowds in attendance for Sarah's speech.    Her made-for-television 8 part special,  "Sarah's Alaska," was viewed by more people (19 million) than the entire HBO weekend crowd watching the anti-Palin film,  Game Change  (3.6 million total for 8 showings).

She still has a bit of a "screech" in her voice,  but, hey, Sarah is Sarah.

As a public speaker and conservative leader,  I have watched Governor Palin improve her speech performance week after week,  speech after speech,  until now,  even in extemporaneousness interviews,  her comments are substantive to the point of demanding attention and free flowing.

In the end,  the polling results Mr. Debnam tries to explain away without giving any credit to Sarah Palin,  is much more the result of her personal integrity and conservative credentials than any other single influence.

Let's not forget,  that she has become so formidable as a conservative champion,  that her challenge to debate Obama, has been fearfully ignored by the "Man of Words,"  while he fills his days running from  pro-Obama venue to venue,  ignoring her challenge and pretending that he is in control of his future.
