Sarah Palin unveils target list...
      

Well Sarah Palin is running her mouth again. She now has a list of targets for the mid-term elections...

She really thinks she holds a lot of power. She and McCain couldn't win an election, she couldn't finish her term as gov. but she's out there making threats.

Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin rolled out a list of Democratic members of Congress she intends to target for defeat this year, announcing that she'll go after lawmakers who voted for health care reform and hail from districts she and Arizona Sen. John McCain won in the 2008 presidential election. Forty-eight Democrats represent districts that voted for McCain.

“With the president signing this unwanted and ‘transformative’ government takeover of our health care system today with promises impossible to keep, let’s not get discouraged,” Palin wrote in a post on her Facebook wall, urging supporters not to “get demoralized.”

“We’re going to hold them accountable for this disastrous Obamacare vote,” she continued.

The Democratic members she listed were: Ann Kirkpatrick (Ariz.), Harry Mitchell (Ariz.), Gabrielle Giffords (Ariz.), John Salazar (Colo.), Betsy Markey (Colo.). Allen Boyd (Fla.), Suzanne M. Kosmas (Fla.), Baron P. Hill (Ind.), Earl Pomeroy (N.D.), Charlie Wilson (Ohio), John Boccieri (Ohio), Kathy Dahlkemper (Pa.), Christopher Carney (Pa.), John M. Spratt, Jr. (S.C.), Tom Perriello (Va.), Alan B. Mollohan (W.Va.), and Nick J. Rahall II (W.Va.).

“We’ll aim for these races and many others,” she wrote. “This is just the first salvo in a fight to elect people across the nation who will bring common sense to Washington.”

1. Can the Democrats PAY her to come campaign in their districts?
   As expensive as she is, it could be worth every penny.

3. And I care about what Politico and Palin have to say, because.....?
   I don't listen to media whores, and both of those outfits,
certainly qualify.

8. I agree with your description of Palin & Politico...
   But I've always been of the mind know what your enemies are up to.

To use a football analogy....Sarah Palin is trying to take the offensive, so democrats need to come up with a game plan to stop her.

Everyone knows offense wins games, but it's the defense that wins championships. You saw it in this last election, it was one attack after another on Obama, and he played a good defense and won all the championship.

Sometimes the best offensive is a good defense.

5. You know she doesn't write this stuff...right?
   
She gets the info from the RNC or whomever, and than a staffer types it into facebook.

She could not name 1 democratic candidate on that list guaranteed.

It's a scam. And Politico posts it.

11. I'm not sure she's in the loop at all.
   When she has staffers, why would she even read a memo?

6. The obvious retort is..
   palin being the lying, hypocritical hatemonger that she is..couldn't summon up "common sense" if her life depended on it.

7. Politico just want Progressives to discuss what she has to say,
   when no one should be giving a shit,
on this historic day!

She's past history.
Currently, she's a nothing and a nobody!

9. You'd think she'd get her ass off of facebook and get a real site
   to put her meanderings on. But then, real sites don't count 'friends' do they?

15. Oooooh! Such mighty big words!
   salvo? accountable? 'transformative'? "get demoralized"? hail from districts?

Really, can't they just let her write it her way? How do they expect the teabaggers to understand it unless she writes it herself? There aren't even any ya betchas, there-too-also's or just those ever so charming word salad run on sentences with exclamatory punctuation interspersed willy-nilly for dramatic effect.

I suspect she didn't even write the early draft either.

16. "first salvo in a fight to elect people across the nation
   who will bring common sense to Washington." I guess that means that not only is she not going to go there, no other pukes will be going there either, as none of them have a lick of common sense. Nice one, Failin'!

Okay-- so, not one reference to violence, terror, or coded commands. Half the primitives in this thread don't even think Sarah is responsible for the target list.. Its amazing how the primitives change 'facts' based upon whatever they feel is the most advantageous at the time.

She didn't need to since Grayson got handily defeated, moron.

Great find, BTW.

Nice catch Misk! I would suggest we screen cap it, as once the primitives find out we can document their bull shit, the threads disappear like a cat at the dog pound!

I guess they missed The Daily Kos's list?

H5 for this, Miskie!

Great find.

Like any good tinfoil hatter, DUers formulate a conclusion and then works backwards from it to try to make evidence to fit it.

[Ralph Wiggum]

Forgot to thank you Miskie, excellent find!

Just to see how Sarah Palin did, here were the results from the 2010 election:

The Democratic members she listed were:

Ann Kirkpatrick (Ariz.-1) - LOST GENERAL ELECTION
Harry Mitchell (Ariz.-8) - LOST GENERAL ELECTION
Gabrielle Giffords (Ariz.-5) - WON GENERAL ELECTION
John Salazar (Colo.-3) - LOST GENERAL ELECTION
Betsy Markey (Colo.-4) - LOST GENERAL ELECTION
Allen Boyd (Fla.-2) - LOST GENERAL ELECTION
Suzanne M. Kosmas (Fla.-24) - LOST GENERAL ELECTION
Baron P. Hill (Ind.-9) - LOST GENERAL ELECTION
Earl Pomeroy (N.D.-1) - LOST GENERAL ELECTION
Charlie Wilson (Ohio-6) - LOST GENERAL ELECTION
John Boccieri (Ohio-16) - LOST GENERAL ELECTION
Kathy Dahlkemper (Pa.-3) - LOST GENERAL ELECTION
Christopher Carney (Pa.-10) - LOST GENERAL ELECTION
John M. Spratt, Jr. (S.C.-5) - LOST GENERAL ELECTION
Tom Perriello (Va.-5) - LOST GENERAL ELECTION
Alan B. Mollohan (W.Va.-1) - LOST DEMOCRATIC PRIMARY ELECTION
Nick J. Rahall II (W.Va.-3) - WON GENERAL ELECTION

I guess Palin fared pretty well, don't you DUMmies?  Suck on it.

Allen Boyd (Fla.-2) - LOST GENERAL ELECTION

I got to help throw him out of office.
Now he can focus on his big farm that's not even in the district he used to represent.
