The fact is, Sarah Palin (more, the idea of Sarah Palin) scares the bejeebers out of the Democrats and liberals. A female conservative that might carry a large percentage of the female vote? That would be the death knell to liberals.
And the media and Obama campaign were smart enough not to take her on on the issues. They had to vilify her and make her a national joke before she could be taken seriously.
It is the same thing whenever a conservative black starts to get any kind of national traction. That terrifies the liberal establishment even more than a conservative woman.

As I said a couple of times. I'm hardly claiming she's a MENSA candidate, but Obama and Biden are not smarter, and haven't shown themselves to be, in any way.
Dude, I am on the same page as you on every single political point that we can come up with and if you ask me out of the three who I'd rather have for a president, I'd choose Palin, but Obama is a smart individual. His policies are bad and we have a different view of the proper governance of our country, but to call the man less intelligent than Palin... maybe a push at best. he's a smart man, doesn't mean that Palin is not a smart woman. Bush was an intelligent man as well, that lost a lot of people with his accent.
Now Biden is not overly intelligent plain and simple.

Yeah I do think more the idea of Palin worries Democrats. I don't think Palin herself worries them, especially since after the election she's attached herself with the fringe right a lot of times. But yeah, a strong, intelligent conservative female would send the Democrats into panic mode. The only one that fits that bill though is Condi Rice, and most Dems do give her a level of respect. Though she hasn't run for any office, so maybe that would change if she did.

Condi is a Repub, not a conservative. Don't confuse the two.

What Is Your Opinion On Sarah Palin?
Nope, it wont.
Then you are even dumber than you appear. It will either affect you directly in the form of a tax levy or higher insurance costs.
Assuming, that is, you are not part of the problem as one of the national sponges of real taxpayer money.

It will affect me in neither
Keep thinking you know what my scenario is. Im amazed at how many people have gotten this stuck in their craw.

You've already admitted in this thread that you don't know your scenario. Folks have been trying to help you.

She's a neocon, which has little to do with being conservative. In fact, the roots of neoconservatism is in liberalism. Neocons are not advocates of free market capitalism.

Your insistence on denial of change only serves to illustrate that you have a profound lack of any grasp about the insurance situation.
If you choose to not pay for health insurance, you will be fined a tax levy.
If you choose to participate in the Obamacare exchanges, you will be subject to massive deductibles and a sure reduction in overall benefits coverage.
If you choose to keep your own companies insurance plan, keep in mind that 1) it may be eliminated or drastically changed due to the formal legal requirements of Obamacare. So you may well have a much different plan than you have now. Or 2), the associated costs with your insurance carrier having to meet the ancillary costs of Obamacare will cause your plan costs to rise.
Even in the BEST CASE scenario, you keep your existing company plan. Unfortunately, you don't appear to know that some employer mandates have been delayed. So you can expect increased in the future. If your employer decides to eat the additional costs, it affects their profitability and eventually your paycheck or other benefits.
The bottom line, is that if you are not one of the 15% who actually benefit from Obamacare due to lack of current insurance and destitute economic status, you WILL experience a negative effect from Obamacare. You can deny it all you want, but I'd bet you my bottom dollar that you will not like the results when the final effects hit you.
Good luck and good day. I hope it is not raining where you are at because you seem ignorant enough to drown looking up.

My plan is staying the same and my costs aren't changing.

Every political post you make points to your "side." Which is he problem with American politics.
Your insurance is changing, you just aren't aware of it. It's highly likely your employer is covering your costs.
Everyone's private insurance changed. I'm not paying more, but my coverage is a bit different and my employer pays a bit more.

LOL, your head is harder than a four ton block of granite. Just keep hanging on your belief. Apparently you conveniently ignored the next paragraph I wrote:

Definitely.

My situation really isn't being impacted, and most likely won't be all that impacted, due to Obamacare. But I'm in a unique situation. Perhaps Trey is as well.

I get your point about her saying stupid things. But if that's the case how do you feel about good ole Biden?
