A Movement To Draft Sarah Palin Urges Iowa Republicans to Vote Rogue
The Sarah Palin crowd is hanging on to Iowa with all they’ve got. They are urging Iowans to vote rogue this January!
An independent group are running ads in Iowa asking voters to write in Palin’s name. They will air on KCAU-TV in the Sioux City, Iowa market. Some will also air as a commercial during the Broncos-Chiefs game on WHBF-TV in the market for the eastern border of Iowa. Here’s their vote rogue ad:
Okay, in case you weren’t quaking from that one, check out the Bear:
There’s a bear in the woods and the bear is vicious and dangerous and isn’t it smart to be as dangerous as the bear, if there really is a bear? Or something like that. Anyway, the point is to vote for Palin (the bear) and the other point is that the other non-Palin candidates better get it together because they are not as tough as the bear (if the bear exists).
Back on the 6th of December, Shellymic, the maker of these videos, debuted the first video, claiming that the ads were not to promote Palin as a write-in candidate, “This is a 30-second commercial and is NOT promoting a write-in effort for Iowa.”
My how times have changed!
The Sarah Palin Earthquake group noted yesterday on Facebook, “MEMBERS: I am happy to announce that our group will be credited with running some radio ads in Iowa on station WHO over this week and weekend. We were asked by some independent individuals if we would work with them to get the ads put on. They are donating to having the ads run and we are lending our Iowa Earthquake’s name to the ads. They have secured a spot on the Rush Limbaugh show and Simon Conway show along with other scattered time slots. This will add to the saturation of the airwaves this last week. Thank you to our members and others who arranged this merger of all of us!”
With Newt falling in the polls and on Intrade, the conservative field is opening up once again for the fickle followers. Fox News is pushing Rick Santorum (the only one left other than Jon Hunstman and he’s not a Fox News conservative or religious cultist), but Santorum has never had national lift-off in spite of his Google fame. He is polling at 16% in Iowa now, thanks to Fox telling their viewers who to support this month (we report, you fall in line). However, with all the changes in the rules and the wide open field, Palin could take Iowa by storm if she wished.
Sarah Palin’s Iowa Earthquake is a closed Facebook group with 359 members, although there are many other Palin Earthquake groups on Facebook. The main page has 1,242 likes as of this writing. On Free Republic, a member claims that on October 8, 2011, the Sarah Palin’s Earthquake group had 1,000s of members that are a part of a draft Sarah Palin movement.
Conservatives for Palin states that the Palin Quake’s main purpose is to round up all of her supporters to create the “earthquake” that will stir a change of heart in their chosen candidate. They write, “A win in Iowa would be a strong enough earthquake to meet the bar she has set. If we could deliver Iowa for her, it would make a huge statement for her viability and in her supporters’ sincere grassroots efforts to help get her into the race.”
The name of the group is based on Palin’s conversation with Mark Levin wherein she said she would not change her mind about running absent a 10.3 magnitude earthquake, which her supporters are trying to create by taking Iowa for Palin.
It’s encouraging to see citizens this engaged in the election process, no matter who their chosen candidate is.

The Palinbots are deadly serious about drafting Palin to run. It’s been promoted on C4P for two months.

I can see it now – thousands of Iowans writing in “Rogue” for a joke, and some, for an even bigger joke, to write in “Rouge” as a mistake on purpose.

That’s funny and true. I look at the republican candidates running for president right now as being a disgrace to america that this group of imbeciles are the best there is. If palin were running and getting support it would take it to a whole other level. When it comes to being an ass clown no one comes close to palin.

I just feel sorry for these folks now. They keep buying into her BS, and they’re going to be so disappointed when she comes up with her ‘winning’ excuse why she can’t run. I’m sure she’ll have a book they can buy. They can use the pages to wipe away their tears…. :(

I used to feel sorry for these folks, but not any more. They are acting like the ex-boyfriend/ex-girlfriend who can not and will not move on after a break-up.

I don’t feel sorry for them because they are immersed in denial and self-deception. In addition, they have been nasty and vitriolic toward those who don’t share their idolization of Simple Sarah.

NOTHING could be more fun than watch the Tundra-tart run, and crash and burn! She truly is magnificent at making a spectacle of herself. Not once has she offered a single solution to the problems that ail our economy. All she does is endlessly bitch and moan about how Obama, and that the lamestream media is out to get her…. when she, in fact, is her own worst enemy. I would actually pay to see her and Obama debate, and how she would squirm outta that one, [Mr. President, can I call ya 'Joe'?] Her arm would be littered with all the points she should remember, but has yet to learn in the three years she was introduced to the lower 48!

Bring her on, she will cower in the basement in moosehead Alaska even if she wins.
Being beat is bad enough, being crushed is worse. Right Ms Palin?

Hal Riney and Partners should be suing for copyright infringement. The “bear” commercial was paid for by Reagan ’84, and the intellectual property in the commercial is still protected.
But then, HRP has a history of producing ads for conservatives, so maybe they will look the other way.

In 1984, when Palin was a child of 20, bears were evil Commies.
In 2012, when Palin is a child of 48, the bear is now a delusional, narcissistic, petty, vindictive, vulgar, bitter quitter Grizzly Mama.
It’s a compliment.

It may well be that the scale of damage that McCain did to the GOP in 2008 is about to manifest itself:
Our4thEstate Bobfr
Palin’s IA ‘earthquake’ – t.co/8XldSQVe – ‘Maverick’ McCain’s irreparable seismic destruction of the GOP may be the story on 4Jan2012
The Teabaggers can’t stand Willard. With Newt’s book tour hitting a speed bump in IA and Perry/Cain/Bachmann history, it’s likely that Willard will beat Paul and Santorum. But, if grifter Palin catalyzes a teabagger ‘rogue vote’ success we’re likely to see the GOP fracture, seismically. And, the country club set will have the Maverick to blame for fracking the base with Palin in 2008.

That should work well according to the enthusiastic followers at SeaofPee.
“”"I was (am?) with NH O4P. Some have moved on (none to Mitt that I know of), but most are still open to the idea of a write-in vote. I’ve managed to convince 8 (I’m counting) so far in conversation, to vote Rogue”
Now if they could just get 8 more.

Oh wow, Shellymic, the maker of these videos suffers from some type of mental illness. When this earth quake effort fails and makes Palin once again the biggest loser in the GOP you do not want to be anywhere near a post office at the same time as Shellymic. She will be going postal and there will be a death count! They need to get her locked down in in the psych ward at Bellevue, pronto!

Since Palin has been trying to sell a reality show of her husband with snowmobile races and there are no buyers, maybe she WILL run. She will do anything to make money, as long as it does not involve actual WORK. Her two older daughters are trying to sell their reality show, hoping to become the next Kardasians. As if this country needs another group of THOSE!! Maybe Palin could convince Victoria Jackson to be her running mate?

She is going to be mad now ! There is a new reality show coming from Alaska ” Hook, Line, & Sisters ” about three sisters from Colorado who Salmon fish in Alaska every year and for a change these women are actually good looking and can carry on a dialogue beyond “you betcha, and bells & whistles ” Ole Todd better start ducking cause Sarah the Tick is going to be hurling some canned goods LOL !!!

What channel will this new show be on? I’m sure she WILL be mad because this will be something else to divert the attention from her that she craves. With her increasing irrelevance, she must be suffering badly from withdrawal symptoms.

gawd I’d love to see Palin jump in.. it would decimate the whole republican/conservative movement and hand the election to obama on a golden platter to their worldwide embarrassment. Outside of her tiny little handful of crazies no one else would waste their time on this airhead.

Well, there aren’t a lot of stretches of forest in Iowa for bears to hide in anyway. No one needs to be terribly afraid of the threat that the 1/2 time worst governor ever will ruin the 2012 political campaign.

By all means, she should get in the race. The documentary that SOMEONE should make on this “campaign” will win an Academy Award. Has there ever been a more cartoonish contingent of characters assembled as a political party, ever? This is getting to be almost, like Monty Python and the Flying Circus.

Thousands of voters? What happened to the alleged millions of fans? The earthquake movement is pathetic and all they have done is prove that Palin has a very, very small following, nothing at all like they claim.
Gotta love that they are “saturating” the airwaves with a few 30 second commercials a day! Nothing like C4P propaganda that proves RWNJ’s are alive and well in our country. I hope they seek the help they need from mental health professionals and do it now.

$arah is hoping for an earthquake as a sign from God, which will trigger her to run for the GOP-bagger nomination ? ?
Ha, ha, that’s rich.
