Looking for a leader, Tea Partiers issue invite to Palin
Posted: September 3rd, 2009 05:11 AM ET

From CNN All Platform Journalist Jim Spellman


EL PASO, Texas (CNN) — As the Tea Party Express makes its way across the country, Sarah Palin has emerged as a favorite daughter of the movement, and organizers have invited her to join the tour — or at least come to the final stop in the nation's capital.


*****

"We've been in touch with her people, letting her know the response that we've gotten. She's very suportive of the movement," says Joe Wierzbicki, one of the organizers traveling on the Tea Party Express.

So far, no politician has emerged as a leader of the Tea Party movement – and the question of just who might eventually take up the mantle is a hot topic on the bus. Nobody may be better positioned than Palin — but organizers, some of the most motivated members of the conservative base, still say she'll need to earn that title.

"Right now there's a handful of people who strike a chord with the tea party base, and she is certainly one of those people," says Wierzbicki. "Whether or not she emerges as one of those leaders, that's between her and the American people."

9. Hee-hee.
Should have thought of that. :)

Actually, "God Who Comes" was an allusion to the HBO series "True Blood" and their recent storyline where the entire town has been brainwashed by this demon lady to become these mindless orgy drones, all to summon the Greek god Dionysis and make a human sacrafice to him.

Here, this pretty much sums it up:

I don't know, the mob reminded me of your typical teabaggers.

5. I love this - Palin has to EARN THE RIGHT to lead these idiots -
they deserve each other.

I am still amazed that any sane person ever considered her qualified for the Vice Presidential nomination.

7. The "Tea Party Movement," being a mostly random collection of ignorant cranks . . .

Doesn't really have a mantle to take up and will fade into obscurity when the keys stuck in teabaggers' backs all run down.

8. She's Hiding Their Real Fave...Flying Right Under The Radar
Couple days ago I had coffee with an acquaintance who is one teabag short of being a full-blown freeper. He's all but certain President Obama is a commie socialist a-rab kenyan. I was joking with him that his "babe" sure isn't up to stuff and to my surprise, he agreed. He said he was tired of Mooselini's circus and that she really isn't his choice at all...who is? Hucklenutz. He's as far off the deep end as Bible Spice and far more credible. The more she turns into a national joke, the bigger smokescreen it gives Hucklenutz who is definitely set to run in 2012 and is the one who could unite the wingnuts like few other candidates.

10. They don't have that kind of money
Sarah isn't doing anything these days without at least a six-figure advance.
