“Doggone right we’re angry,” Palin said

[Ghost Dog]

“Doggone right we’re angry,” Palin said she said to the conservative base of supporters in Iowa, as 24/7 cable networks broadcast more than an hour-long campaign event live on TV nationwide, for free. “We are mad, and we’ve been had.”

But for Democrats, a Trump-Palin alliance represents a kind of two-headed monster on the campaign trail, the likes of which world politics may have never seen. Whether liberals see the duo as a true nightmare or a stage act to be laughed off, well: that depends on how seriously they take the Trump reality – and the staying power of the Palin Show...

1. I wonder how long Trump will be able to put up with her.

And it's not just the screeching and the moronic lines.

I think she will steal his limelight and he won't be able to deal with it.

6. Not to be taken seriously, then, around here,

... the free air time, the air heads, the circus?

...Jamie Johnson, the longtime Republican party activist and former adviser to Texas governor Rick Perry, said Palin could still “sway 5 to 10% of the undecided Tea Party voters” who have been wrestling with whether to support Texas senator Ted Cruz instead. “Sarah Palin’s endorsement of Mr Trump may in fact push them over,” he told the Guardian.

Other Trump enthusiasts were more lukewarm on a Palin comeback.

Roxanne Johnston, who works for the John Wayne Birthplace & Museum, said that while she likes that Trump is picking up the endorsement of a woman, “We don’t think she’s the right woman.”

Any other year, Sarah Palin's nod would hurt Trump. But 2016 isn't right

While some Trump supporters on Tuesday remained skeptical of the power of Palin’s stamp of approval, there remained room for them to come around. After all, Palin lends the Republican front-runner at least two credentials that are extremely valuable with less than two weeks to go before Iowa first-in-the-nation vote: conservative bonafides and inroads with woman voters...

10. Let's see, 17% of Republicans support the Tea Party. Republican affliation is 26%. That makes about

4.5% of voters are Tea Party and Palin can draw in 5 to 10%. That would be .225 to .45% of all voters. Wow.

7. It was an "historic meeting of the minds"

Seriously, the article said that. Where's the second mind?

8. Sarah, you and your confederacy of weirdos are always angry

[sinkingfeeling]

9. As a liberal American, I see the duo as a total embarrasment.

[lovemydog]

12. Yeah, of course they're mad. But that's like going from a bad drug dealer

to the head of the cartel.
