Just a thought or two about Palin and Rick Perry

The Left leaning Alaska Dispatch seems to think Sarah could be a big help to the Rick Perry campaign. Perry has had a terrible time in the GOP debates, probably finishing last in each of the several contest. But I agree with Perry; I think we are putting entirely too much emphasis on these debates.

We complain that Obama is circumventing congress. Well, it seems that the political pundits want to circumvent the elections, attempting to pick winners and losers a year before the elections. A poll goes one way or the other, and, suddenly, "We have a winner !!" Make a mistake on the stump, ala Michele Bachmann, and we move on to the next best choice. Lies are manufactured by the Marxist Media and we believe the lies. And Rick Perry is not all that good in a debate, and, wala, he is not qualified to be president. Never his recorded as Texas Governor. Never mind his consistency. Never mind that he is the first Texan to be elected to three terms. Never mind his popularity with the TEA party movement.

Anyone listen to the man give a speech? He's great. Anyone listen to him present his ideas on the stump? He is as right on and exciting as they come. I have to tell you, a debate champion does not a great president make. Let's not surrender our personal opinions for a "satisfactory debate record" or an empty suit.

Look, Obama used cocaine, did not know how many states there were in the union, and had no clue how to pronounce "corps" as in Marine Corps, mispronouncing it 3 times in a single speech; there is a big difference between the Marine Corps and a Marine corpse.

Anyway, "can Sarah help Perry" is not as important a question as, "will Sarah support Perry?" Maybe this is a story in the Dispatch because of something that paper knows.

I do know that she has been on record, this past week, blasting Obama for siding with the Occupy Movement. And the press is listening. She, obviously, has the influence to be of help. Time will tell.
