Oh, really?
Huh? You sure about that, WingNutDaily? Hannity/Palin 2012?
WASHINGTON — Talk-show host Sean Hannity, a vocal opponent of Barack Obama’s policies, said today he would not rule out a bid for the presidency in 2012.
Egged on by radio colleague Bill Cunningham [That would be this Bill Cunningham, BTW. — Ed.], Hannity said he would consider entering the front lines of the political fray if God directs him.
[…]
While Obama’s approval ratings have been plummeting in his first year in office, no clear Republican frontrunner has emerged. The candidates most often considered viable include Mitt Romney, Sarah Palin and Hannity’s Fox News colleague Mike Huckabee.
Cunningham, one of Hannity’s guests during a visit to Cincinnati today, said the nation and the Republican Party need Hannity.
When WND asked Hannity to repeat what he said on the air about a run, he said, “I ducked.”
Later in the program, a member of the audience asked what the host thought of a Hannity-Palin ticket.
The studio audience erupted in applause.
Are you kidding me? Are you fucking kidding me? Hannity would be an oppo researcher’s wet dream! This is the man who was responsible for rehabilitating domestic terrorist Randall Terry during the Terri Schiavo debacle. Hannity is good friends with noted racist and Teabagger violence inciter Hal Turner.
And let’s not forget that Hannity is a talk radio host with his own prime time show on Fox Propaganda. There’s tons and tons of opposition research gold to be mined in those radio and television archives. Wouldn’t you just looooove to hear the clip of Hannity calling Congressman Jim Moran (D — VA) an “asshole” repeated on an endless loop night-after-night all across the TV airwaves? (Fat chance with our media, I know, but a guy can dream, can’t he?)
So, really, Hannity/Palin in 2012?
Bring it, bitchez!

I’ll keep blogging, but it may not be as frequent as it used to be.
