OPINION: ‘Sarah’s Revenge’ aimed at radical leftists

The pundits and blogosphere are in an uproar. Some say she has made a bold move. Others say she has destroyed any chance of ever becoming president. Those who subjected her to vicious attacks in an effort to drive her out of office are now condemning her for “abandoning Alaska.” I have been listening to all the comments from all sides of the political aisle and I am convinced that none of them have a clue as to her plans.

Now let me be clear. I do not have any inside information. I know just as little as any of the others. But I think I may have an idea of what she is thinking.

Sarah Palin has been seriously hurt by the vicious attacks on herself and especially her family. I think she wants to take the political assassins on and inflict as much pain on them as they have on her. And the best way to do that is to take away their most prized victories.

The radical left has finally managed to seize control of the U.S. Federal government. And they are working hard and fast to use their power to force their socialist agenda on the nation. They know that the majority of Americans do not approve of their plans. They know that their program can only weaken this nation by inflicting heavy damage to our cultural, political and economic resources. By doing so, it will give them a chance to lock in their insidious plans making it more and more difficult for we the people to reverse their actions.

“Sarah’s Revenge” can be best accomplished by helping to defeat congressional left-wing radicals and replace them with people who will defend the American tradition of limited government, state sovereignty, respect for the constitution, low taxes, and individual responsibility. She has the tools to do this. She is very appealing and always draws a large crowd. She is a powerful fund-raiser, and whether or not it is a good thing, money is a key to political victories. She is good at building organizations to solve specific problems. She has already accomplished the majority of her agenda for Alaska with over a year left to go in her term.

If it is Sarah Plain’s plan to drive the radicals out of Congress, and I believe that is what she intends to do, then she has all the tools to lead that effort. And she does not need to be an office holder in order to accomplish that task. Just the opposite is true. With no prescribed responsibilities, she will be free to concentrate all her time and energy to achieving her goal. Nor will she need to be active in any political party. She only needs to represent the ideas and goals of her mission. The less encumbered she is, the more successful her efforts will be.

I think we will be seeing a lot of Sarah Palin between now and November 2010. And the result may well be the reinstatement of our great American revolution.
