Sarah Palin's Iowa Chief Organizer seems delusional

It's one thing to be really enthusiastic about your candidate. It's another to publicly compare them to historical figures who are totally out of their league. By doing the later, you only bring criticism to your candidate and record (or lack there of).

It seems that Sarah Palin's Chief organizer in Iowa Peter Singleton, just can't help himself when it comes to comparing Palin to George Washington and Winston Churchill.
Toby Harnden of the Daily Telegraph of London reported on an interview with Singleton in Pella, Iowa: “She’s the right person at this time. If you look back at Churchill’s time, in 1938 Churchill was unelectable[;] in 1940 he was indispensable. I can’t see her sitting this one out. The stakes are too high. It goes back to 1940. Can you see Churchill sitting it out? It’s unthinkable. Can you see George Washington in 1776 sitting it out?”
Well Peter, I couldn't see Churchill or Washington sitting it out. Sarah though is another story.

Like the author of the article quoted, I would hope Palin would be embarrassed by these comparisons and tell Singleton to tone it down, especially if she intends to enter the race. Most sane people find these comparisons laughable.

Ok, so this statement says Churchill and Washington wouldn't have sat out.

So if Palin sits out, then what? Can we all then admit that she is nothing like Washington and Churchill then?

The point is, She is nothing like Washington or Churchill either way.

They had a lifetime of achievement. Palin's name should not be mentioned in the same sentence.

"She probably is embarrassed by the harebrained comparisons of this fellow Singleton — at least we hope so."

Doubt it. She compares herself to Reagan and Queen Esther.

Singleton is a good example of an idiot. No one in their right mind would do what he allegedly has done in his attempt to organize Iowa for Palin. If you go to any of his Iowa for Palin sites on FB ( he has created a FB group for each Iowa county) you will note that none has more than 4 members.

The only person Sarah should compare herself to is Singleton.

We used to hear how Romney 2.0 was pretty much like Mr. Reagan. Funny how the Romneyites have quietly backed away from this. For the record, nobody is exactly ike Mr. Reagan, he is his own man. However, some candidate are more like him than others.

DD, Are you Malia Litman? This is a serious question.

That may be true OJ.

I don't hear it though from any of his advisers only some supporters.

I think there is a difference between what a candidate's supporters are pushing and what a candidates advisers are pushing.

This comment came from her top man in Iowa. He's been being called her top man for quite some time now.

I haven't heard Palin denying his status. Have you?

@ OhioJoe, Sarah is NOTHING like Reagan.

Having had several opportunities to meet President Reagan, I can also tell you that Sarah Palin is nothing like Reagan either. Not even close. Maybe in candy selection, but that might be it. Nor is she like Churchill, or Jackson, Or Lincoln. She is not the great white hope of this generation. She is a quitter. And not a good example to women of the GOP.

"@ OhioJoe, Sarah is NOTHING like Reagan." Haha, so you are saying she is a Socialist? You guys are funny.

@ OJ...no, we're in touch with reality. You and the rest of the sick little cult are living a life of fantasies and delusions. It's really sad. Keep sending her your money, fool.

Palin is a good person. But as far as comparing her actions to those of Washington or Churchill, she has quite a ways to go first.

palin is a power grabbing, money hungry mediawhore who will do anything to be in the spotlight. She will not run for president because she knows she lacks a few brain cells for the job and because she knows obama would give her a shellacking.

Perhaps it was a little fantasy time or wishful thinking on Singleton's part.

Actually Palin probably is the closest to the comparisons in the story. But I could easily see Palin as one of the great patriots of our country.
