There's something quite fundamental that people don't seem to understand here: If Sarah Palin accepted McCain's offer for Vice President, then she probably already was comfortable and supportive of his policies. This new endorsement, for better or worse, only reinforces that.

This changes nothing.

Considering you are a main proponent here of opposing the Republican party, it seems you would be cheering that.

Ron Paul, Who said that the “CIA needs to be destroyed” just a few weeks after the Taliban Killed 8 Americans including several CIA personel...

Look for her and everyone else to ride this indipendent wave. It’s in Vogue.

I'm afraid you're right. Scott Brown made that clear in his acceptance speech when he specifically thanked the independents. Not a word to conservatives across the country who donated and helped him get elected.

Arizona is going to dump McCain. If Sarah wants to hitch her wagon to a train wreck, so what?
If she can support McCain and not know about the rotten ads McCain has been running against JD Hayworth for weeks, she’s dumb as a rock.

At some level it is all a big game

At every level, except one, it's a game. And that would be street level.

"Just another venue for the Get Palin mob to exploit."

Exactly! I seriously doubt that Palin is a RINO. I am not terribly fond of McCain myself but, given the alternative, I might just support him. I am sure that Sarah Palin finds herself in a position of feeling some loyalty and obligation to McCain and intends to honor those feelings.

She’s not a RINO. She is simply returning a favor. For all of McCain’s faults, McCain will be remembered best for bring Sarah Palin out of obscurity into the spotlight.

You were saying ...

If you show me a republican who is NO a RINO, then I submit that the person is simply a Conservative posing as a Republican.

If Ronald Reagan were running today, he would be labeled a "RINO" by many on Free Republic... LOL...

That term has gotten to be an idiotic term anymore... and only used for argument when someone doesn't like your candidate... :-)

Republican is a party affiliation. Conservative is a philosophy or ideology. When people say RINO, they mean he is no conservative, but I think you know that.

I just see this as a bone-headed decision by the Governor, that's all.
In no way does it make her a RINO or automatically disqualifies her if she chooses to run for President.

If Palin's a RINO, then I guess all Republicans are RINOs then. Because people like DeMint endorsed Romney, Reagan chose Bush, Duncan Hunter endorsed Huckabee, and Palin was McCain's friggin' VP choice.

RE: Palin's campaigning for McCain. WHY???????

Why is she, who self-identifies as a constitutional/social conservative, helping a RINO big-government progressive? McCain's old news. It's time to turn the page. It seems to me she'd do better to support his primary challenger, J. D. Hayworth. Given her political philosophy, she's closer to Hayworth than McCain anyway.

This is the first time I've had reason to question Mrs. Palin's judgment.

Sarah would have to do a lot worse than this before she would lose my support. So far I agree with her far more than I disagree with her.

Permanently tattoo’d onto Ron Paul and this 16 yr. old Paulist.
