SarahPAC spends hundreds of thousands of dollars on consultants so Sarah will have something to talk about on her self-indulgent talky-show program?

As a hypothesis, it seems consistent with all the facts before us.

She hates her kids. It's the only reasonable explanation.

malsperanza -- No it was more like that was the first YouTube video that came up when they hit "I'm feeling lucky."

The Rs keep telling themselves that voters aren't connecting with them because of poor packaging. They want to believe that voters would buy what they are selling if it was just better presented. They cannot see or they refuse to see that the problem isn't the package, it's the contents (and also the vendor).

With any luck.

I have no doubt whatsoever that they believed - correctly - that if they were going to pick a woman, only a VILF would appeal to their knucklehead redneck base.

It confirmed for them that in general, women just weren't qualified.

The problem, apparently, is that the Dem votes are concentrated in big urban centers, where they provide 70-80% majorities, but this leaves most of the boonies and burbs to the GOP. Until we figure out how to export our excess liberals to the red states, the Dems will never take the House.

Funny, because her words are sold to the teatards by volume, not by weight.

Yes, we all know who's the real bitch in that house.

<i>"the situation that we cannot elect enough conservatives through the process because the RINOs are cheating in the primaries""</i>

Pretty bold talk for a party that lost the overall vote for House seats in 2012, yet managed somehow to "win" a majority of those seats. That's some grade A cheating. <a href="http://www.washingtonpost.c..." target="_blank">" rel="nofollow noopener" title="http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/wonkblog/wp/2...">http://www.washingtonpost.c...

Here's the transcript of the retake:<blockquote>Jeepers. Why do I have to do it over again? <i>(unintelligible)</i> I mean gosh darn it. OK ... here we go....

We have a subscriber asking, ‘Sarah, has Todd ever let you take control of the floatplane?'. No, he don't But if I did [fly] I wouldn't crash like a certain runnin' mate did four times. He ain't so great. Ya know, I could have won that election all by myself if they'd only let me take control. I can fly real good. And a bear can be pope if he wears a beanie. </blockquote>

The SarahPAC spends tens of thousands of dollars A MONTH on advisers and consultants - but that's obviously a different kettle of salmon.

I was amused to see Duh Gov' campaigning in Kansas for Roberts, serving his supporters pancakes and word salad.

The SarahPAC's total 2014 contributions to the Roberts' campaign?

$0.

She gave a great screech at the Value Voters Summit 2014! Did you see how she did in their Presidential candidate 2014 Straw Poll? I didn't either.
