So what's your point?
I took your reply seriously because I have not figured out what Sarah Palin is all about.
If pushed, I would be dismissive of her.
But it appears the Republicans are going with her, not against her.
So as in my post above, I'd like a better idea of where she is headed.

The Rohm Emmanuel quote sounds quite cynical, albeit apropos right now... but only if it is limited to the first sentence.
When his next sentence is added, it is a much more of a constructive statement.
That is, many cliches include the idea that "problems are opportunities"
for those who are willing to accept them.

At the time of my post above, I had not seen the entire video clip of SP's remarks posted today.
I urge everyone to go to UTube and view the entire 7:43 minutes.

Early in her remarks, she says she has reflected for several days, asking for guidance.

This confirms to me that she knew (or should have known) what she is saying in this video.
My point is that she is not just making offhand remarks.
Instead, she is deliberately using the words and phrases in this video,
and so can and should be held responsible for them.

For now, I was largely disappointed in her messages in today's video.
