Sarah Palin as marathoner, commmander-in-chief
Hey, guess what? The 2012 presidential race is already in full swing. Haven’t you heard? It’s Sarah Palin vs. Barack Obama. Don’t believe me? Well, here’s my evidence. First, Palin says she’d beat Obama in a run. In an article for Runner’s World magazine, she’s prepared to take on the commander-in-chief in a long distance road race, and she’s feeling pretty cocky:
I betcha I’d have more endurance.
But on to more serious business. Palin’s admirers have just produced the first negative ad of the new campaign season. The script sticks to the philosophy that images speak louder than words. Watch:

David are sure this was actually produced by Sarah’s PAC? There is no byline and why would they be using a free online editing service?
B,
Those are good points. I have an e-mail into their website. SarahPac.org takes you to SarahPac.com, by the way. The YouTube file attributes the video to SarahPac.org, and it is labeled that way at the beginning of the clip. Will see what I can turn up.
Whoever actually produced it it is pretty reflective of what her peeps believe, I “love” the “Mission Accomplished” feel to it! I did re-watch it and noticed this time it did have her byline.
In response to another comment. See in context »“Runner’s World”?
re. the Runner’s World comment, what’s she thinking? Didn’t she see the Obama beach photos? The dude is pretty cut… A veiled reference to his past as a smoker? Or am I giving her WAY too much credit?
Scott,
Actually, the Runner’s World piece is surprisingly entertaining. We learn that Palin listens to old Van Halen and AC/DC while jogging, and that she covered up a bad fall during the ‘08 campaign. Fascinating stuff.
Austin,
Yes, too much credit.
You can never give this woman too much credit, she is seriously dangerous and needs to be monitored closely.
In response to another comment. See in context »Nice score for RW. I now have in my head an image of Palin sprinting to “Highway to Hell.”
Scott,
I’m thinking “Running with the Devil” by VH.
David,
Old Van Halen or not Sammy Hagar Van Halen? More things are possible with David Lee Roth’s full tenure. I see the crazy lady with press credentials is being hauled off at the end. The one that thought everybody would be looking up her dress. Old Van Halen…great, AC/DC…great, Amy Grant…YUCK!
By 2012 Sarah Palin will be running, but not as the presumptive frontrunner. Look what happened to the last women to have that title?
I can see Sarah running to “Jump” by Van Halen, “Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap” by AC/DC and “The Next Time I Fall” with Peter Cetera of Chicago fame. That I can barely tolerate…her solo stuff; not so much.

[...] sprints. So maybe that bodes well for Palin’s chances in 2012, and explains why her fans are already releasing head-to-head campaign ads against Obama, even though the new president’s administration is just six months [...]
Perhaps she should have listened to Band On The Run
