“Can Sarah Palin win in a general election?”
Yes she can, all five candidates agreed during the lightening round of questioning at the RNC chairman debate. During this round, candidates were asked quick fire questions with little time to explain answers.
As the questions went on, some of the candidates became more candid with their responses.
“Name one thing President Obama has done that you agree with.”
Saul Anuzis said that the one thing he agreed with that Obama did was go on vacation.
“How many guns do you own?”
Maria Cino, Michael Steele, and Reince Priebus said none. Wagner's response came to claps and laughs. "I may surprise ya'll," Ann Wagner continued, "we just got a new gun case for Christmas, and so I think there are about 16 in there. Everything from a pistol and a glock to shotguns, rifles, and...an assault rifle."
"What is your favorite book?"
"Probably my kitchen table," Wagner said in describing her favorite bar instead of her favorite book because she didn't hear the question properly. She went on to correct herself - President Bush's new book is her favorite. Same question, Steele said his favorite was War and Peace but then quoted another book, A Tale of Two Cities - "It was the best of times. It was the worst of times."
“Where do you get your news?”
In a subtle nod to the Katie Couric question that famously flummoxed then-Vice Presidential candidate Sarah Palin, one of the moderators, Daily Caller founder Tucker Carlson, asked the panelists, “where do you get your news?”
Priebus joked that he got his news from The Daily Caller, which also happened to be co-sponsoring the debate. During Steele's turn, he said, "I'm an old fashioned guy. I start the day every morning with a hard copy of the Washington Post."

Like all loyal Beckerheads... they said... lol
Ha ha! Welcome to dreamland! Nothing would insure an Obama win more.
Good to see you Indy! Trust you had joyeous holidays?
Not to mention - we have a 'real live' Annie Oakley here... lmao
She better be careful or she'll shoot her eye out!
Wonderful little recap, but, please correct the spelling of the word "lightning." Unless you are doing a play on words?Anyways, it damages the journalists' integrity when there are errors in the article.
You, sir, are out of your league here... Journalist integrity? Like quoting other news organizations, rather than investigating reporting? LOL... And you critique spelling... ROFLMAO
Anyways is not a word. It damages your integrity when there are errors in your correction of errors.
The folks on the right need to sit Sister Sarah down and be truthful with her, and tell her that she is not qualified to be President. For so many tea people to follow her and think that she would even be elected President is kind of crazy.
If Sarah was nominated as the Republicans choice for President, that would be a real laugher, especially in debating the President. In such a debate, there would be too many big words for her to right on her hand.
Last evening Keith O talked about the difference between the 'conservative' and 'liberal' brain...the wiring of each, perhaps.
Conservative brains may be wired to fear everything.....hence conservatives are afraid of Sister Sarah, Glen Beck, Limpballs, Hannity, etc..... and of course anybody that doesn't agree with them or look and worship like them.
The ultimate lock step mentality!
And another republican said with a smile and a noticible lump rising in the front of his pants (small but noticeable)
"We just bought a new hardened bunker! I've got 10,938 guns. Everything from the paperclip shooter I used to thwack the ears of all of the kids unlucky enough to sit in front of me all through middle school, to 1000's of hand guns, shotguns, assault rifles, machine guns, RPG's, anti-aircraft guns and anti-carrier missiles. Next week I'm having a good friend in the mountains of Afghanistan make a dirty bomb to add to my collection."
To which all of the other republicans jumped out of their seats laughing, hugging each other and frantically applauding like Reagan had been reincarnated or something.
