It appears our party has not learned its lesson.
First Chris Christie rejected Palin's help. and now it appears Bob McDonnell is doing the same thing. There are some very powerfull people in the GOP who are trying to pull things over on us. Sure, they may say all the right things. But open your eyes and pay close attention to what is happening.
I am calling on all Freepers in Virginia to vote against Chris Christie and Bob McDonnell.
this is our party. we have to send a strong message and hit the liberal GOP leadership right between the legs as far as I am concerned.
I don't care if you vote Deeds, Corzine, or vote independent. or don't vote at all.
but do not play along with these losers. Palin is the most independent minded politician in America. They use some internal poll numbers to advance the lie that she turns off independent voters. Look and study her history in Alaska. She owned independent voters because she is independent. She is one of the folks.
Don't believe the lies.
and we have to put a stop to this crap.
In Virginia and New Jersey I should say
So you’re suggesting people vote democrat because they somehow didn’t invite Palin. You’ve lost your marbles or you are a troll.
YEP...we’re having a similar problem in one of Oregon’s Congressional districts....the NATIONAL GOP has chosen the candidate THEY want to run, while we’ve got another guy...whom they would hardly talk to....why? Because he’s never really been elected to any major position....which IN THIS ENVIRONMENT is probably a plus!

Hell no
oops ..... I’m at a remote mtn location sitting by a lake freeping and the connection isn’t great.
I agree. Anyone who is more afraid of Palin than they are of Obama is someone who doesn’t deserve to be in office.
Its too early to know who I’ll support for president. Thats not the point. The point is that the kind of weasels who run like scalded cats at the sound of her name are not the kind of people capable of facing down our enemies.
The kind of people who see her as a rival rather than an ally, likewise, have no chance of receiving my support for dogcatcher or anything else.
It doesn’t matter.
Vote Deeds, vote 3rd party. vote 4th party, vote 5th party. Or don’t vote at all.
All I am saying is VOTE AGAINST THESE PEOPLE. reject those who reject Palin. it is our party.
I’m in NJ and I do reject the anti-Palin crowd.
I can appreciate most of Sarah Palin's view.
However, are we in such a sorry state that there is not ONE rightous Christian man that can be put forward as a presidential candidate?
Why our we Christian men letting our Christian women fight the battles for us. We need to repent of that sin.
Bob McDonnell is as conservative as they come. Didn't the people of your ilk (DUers) just go on a rampage because he wrote a socially conservative thesis 20 years ago?
I like Palin as well as the next person, but what you are suggesting is insanity.
I don’t care who has a penis or who has a vagina. I just want people in our party who are doing what is best for this country.
it is not a gender thing for me.
Palin is the real deal.
NO, I don’t think a ‘troll’. I think someone who is fed up with ball-less RINOs and appeasement of a Republican Regime that is content to glean what vestiges of power they once commanded, however slim. The GOP won’t get a goddam dime of my money; Sarah Palin will!. And, If you think I’m a troll, honey, then you gotta nother think comin’.
I am not a DU troll.
I am just sick and tired of the way Palin is being treated.
Christie and McDonnell are saying they don't want outside influence, but Mitt Romney has campaigned on their behalf numerous times.
I disagree with you though, because these are important pickups which will motivate the base in 2010 and both candidates are far superior to the Dems. But I understand what you're saying though, and it'll hurt the GOP in the end.
Sarah Palin seems like a nice lady.
She has nuked Obamacare in less than 160 characters.
She needs to consolidate her friends and trusted advisors.
She’s not ready to take over the leadership of the party yet. She will be in a few years, but that time is not now.
Don’t rush it. When Mrs. Palin has her forces ready she will be unstoppable. But it is better to lose a few early battles, consolidate your forces and overwhelm your opponents at a time of her choosing.
Are you a Christian who believes in the triune Godhead?
We have to destroy people like Ed Gillespie and Steve Schmidt. they are not conservatives. they are self hating anti christian liberals who belong in the Democratic party.
Think about what you are advocating for a second. You are asking people to vote for baby-killing, homo-loving, gun-grabbing leftists all because you think that people aren't worshiping your favorite candidate enough.
Do you think that Sarah would advocate that?
Bob McDonnell is a reliable conservative. You apparently are not.
I agree but you gotta let events play out and go from there. Too early to get emotional. Just face the fact that not everybody likes Palin and work even harder to support her.
A yes or no will suffice.
No. I want to hit the GOP leadership right between the legs.
You don’t get it man. You just don’t get it.
When they reject Palin, they reject us. and then they expect our votes on election time. Please wake the heck up.
we are being used. and it has to stop NOW
I think it is a bad decision not to use her talents but at the same time I can see that some politicians in a state where they might win with a very narrow majority would be afraid to stir things up to much and bring out the liberal vote which would turn against them.
As I said, I disagree with that line of thought, but I can understand it.
It may also be that they plan to use her later, as a closer. It is well known, in sports and especially horse racing and similar sports that one can peak to early.
It is a long time until November 2010 and they well may be waiting to see how well she does helping others.
What is the basis for your "conservative" beliefs?
"I talked to Bob (McDonnel) personally earlier in the summer about the idea of bringing Palin in. He was stoked about having her campaign with him. If you check out Bob's positions on the issues, you'd swear you were reading Palin's positions--they are that close on the issues. Bob knows the Guv--he was onstage with her at her VA rallies last fall and traveled with her, too. Then the RNC brought in Ed Gillespie (Romney-bot) to run the campaign - and the McDonnell folks did a 180 on Palin."
Most Republican politicans are deathly afraid of standing up for their beliefs in the face of:
Being called a racist because they feel affirmative action and preferential treatment is no longer called for.
Being called callous and heartless because they feel people should work and that it is not government's job to wipe everyone's ass.
Being called selfish because they want to keep what they work for
Being called a bigot, homophobe or hater because they want their children to be free from immorality and deviancy
Being called a zealot because they believe in a real God, and that that God is all powerful
on and on and on and on. These 'men' are eunichs and they are to be shunned.
No need. They will come crawling back. Just beeeeeeee patient.
The two of them are irrelevant when you look at the bigger picture.
There will be those Republicans who will refuse Palin's help because they bought into the leftist lies that Palin's a quitter, no experience, divisive to independents, etc. They will go down in defeat anyway.
Amen!
Now....let's work hard to elect true Christian warrior men.
We need to carefully see how these men are leading their families before we should entrust them to lead our government.
Precisely because of the principle of 'triangulation' and 'nuance'. His 'campaign' has calculated the value against the perceived negative effects [prompted by the nuance of possible negative exposure and comment by MSM] and have concluded that the 'few' conservative right-minded supporters he thinks he already has are the only ones that won't be turned off by supporting a supposed MSM-defined "ditz". In my book this asshole doesn't deserve to be elected shit shoveler if he's down to 'nuancing' like this.
I didn’t really care about politics until I was sitting in my 2nd period High School history class in September 11th, 2001. That is what got my fire burning.
and I saw that the Republican party was the only party that understood what we are still up against. I had studied history. I admire Ronald Reagan and I think we have to be just as strong against terrorism as he was against communism.
Most of my family is Democratic. My grandpa is a Democrat. His dad is a Democrat. I can say that 9/11 changed my life and my destiny.
Honey, the RNC isn’t getting any of my cash either for the same reasons. But I don’t support the idea of throwing the baby out with the bath water. I would prefer Sarah speak for herself, if she feels dissed I have complete confidence she’ll respond to it. Go Sarah!
I wasn’t going to post on this thread until reading your post.
I’m a Conservative who is not a Christian. My beliefs would be derived from the Constitution and Declaration of Independence among other sources.
why does gender matter to you ?
christian women can be just as effective leaders as christian men
I agree.
The Stupid Party has another think coming if they think they can get away with marginalizing Palin.
I’ve been watching. They have been measured and have been found wanting.
Politico's article is designed specifically to upset the Republican base and impact the race. It will be interesting to watch.
and I must add.
A person can be a great leader without being religious. Ronald Reagan was not all that religious.
Religion and gender are not issues for me. Unless someone has no respect for my faith.
You need to think about this. Why does she need to right now? So that she can subject herself to a government-controlled media? She knows in her heart she's got the right stuff - family (however troublesome - I've been there), religion, conservatism, love for freedom, individualism and independence. Any fool can see that. Which brings me to why you pissed me off.
Seems they keep placing ...
1) open borders
2) run up the deficit
3) treasonous
4) get-along
5) double-talkers
... in front of us, and telling us they are conservative, when they are nothing of the sort, and vote RINO once in office.
In all sincerity, you have a logical dilemma before you.
The Constitution and Declaration of Independence are both based on Common Law, which is based on the God of the Bible's law.
How can you adhere to one and not the other?
And what is your faith?
I am a christian.
Please advise on a theocratic Constitutional Republic.
Read Proverbs 31 to find out what God expects of Christian women.
McDonnell has not “rejected” Sarah Palin. He has a double digit lead, and he doesn’t need her help, that’s all. Besides, Sarah Palin wants McDonnell to win, because she directed her PAC to donate $5,000 to McDonnell’s campaign.
Stop believing the lies from Politico and the rest of the Democrat-Media Complex.
Sheesh!

Most of my family is Democratic. My grandpa is a Democrat. His dad is a Democrat. I can say that 9/11 changed my life and my destiny.
So you came face to face with your epiphany on 9/11 but don’t throw the baby out with the bath water just because others haven’t met theirs in Sarah Palin. Like you each one has their own to come face to face with. Sarah Palin may or may not be theirs like it or not. That doesn’t make them lesser or to be shunned.
I doubt Sarah Palin would encourage others to do as you are doing at this time. I suspect she’d encourage them to seek the best they can for their area realizing that what works in one state may not work in another. In some areas Sarah Palin maybe an asset where in others she may well be a negative. Personally I’d prefer if outsiders would stay out of my state’s politics on the state/county/local office level.
