You know what’s more confusing to me is why the people that don’t like her. That’s what gets me scratching my head. The people on our side, not the left. I understand — the left is scared to death of her. The left is still out there trying to destroy Sarah Palin. She’s up in Alaska, they’re filing ethics complaints against her every week, forcing her to have to have a legal-defense fund. They’re trying to break her! They’re trying to make her go broke so she won’t be able to have a political future. They’re scared to death of her. If they weren’t, they’d leave her alone, they’d let her go moose hunting! And that would be it!<\/p>\n

Why — you see how easy the conventional wisdom is? The conventional wisdom is that Palin is a dork, that Palin is an idiot, that Palin’s unsophisticated, or Palin’s this or that, she doesn’t know the lingo or she has a bad wardrobe, all this irrelevant stuff! To try to destroy her, to destroy her credibility with people, to impugn her. I just listened to what she said, I liked what she said, and I liked the way she said it. It’s no more complicated than that.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

According to Rush, the GOP should run, not walk, to embrace Sarah Palin, to put her on their collective shoulders and march her around the square. to make her Goddess of the Tea-Baggers and Republican Faithful. <\/p>\n
