Sarah Palin has a great act she's put together. But lest we forget, she stands in the shadow of her predecessor, the original (and sadly, too often unsung) Lipstick Republican UberQueen of Comedy. Who would win a real showdown?
Sarah Palin:
“The America I know and love is not one in which my parents or my baby with Down syndrome will have to stand in front of Obama’s ‘death panel’ so his bureaucrats can decide, based on a subjective judgment of their ‘level of productivity in society,’ whether they are worthy of health care. Such a system is downright evil.”
Can she hold a candle to the original, Michele Bachmann (R-Minn.), speaking here about health care reform?
"What we have to do today is make a covenant, to slit our wrists, be blood brothers on this thing. This will not pass. We will do whatever it takes to make sure this doesn't pass. Right now, we are looking at reaching down the throat and ripping the guts out of freedom, and we may never be able to restore it if we don't man up and take this one on."
