-She cannot run for President while being Gov. of Alaska (geographical challenges.)
-She cannot run for President if she must wait until Jan. ‘11 to start.
-She is not starting or joining any third party.
Romney is “down here” running full-time while Palin is up North? Common sense tells ya it wouldn’t work that way.
Good for her, she can probably have greater influence on the talk shows and affect more people than towing some other rino in an election.
Split? Why? We don’t even have an answer as to where she is going with this.
No one is split although my hair is a little damage and could use some Pantene follicle repair.
I recently saw what I would call a Northern VA “valleygirl” wearing a Politico T’Shirt. She was an attractive blond twenty something precocuppied on her cell phone at the time and if I remember correctly, the conversation (at least on one end) was beyond banal and ridiculously stupid - a perfect testament to our current state. ‘Nuff said.
Sun coming up divides GOP. Yawn.
I agree. It also gives her more time in the lower 48. She can make some $$$$ by speaking. Even if she doesn’t run she can still make $$$ by speaking.
The GOP cast aside conservatism and has been imploding since 2006. Now, it’s Palin’s fault. Yeah, right. LOL!
Now she can directly confront "Americans" who hate America and avoid the liberal/commies who have been filing the bogus ethic charges.
Go Sarah...we luv ya!
I do wonder if she was in contact with Rush/Levin during their secret project meeting to get their comments. If so, a brilliant move by Sarah.
To the Romney backers:
Mitt Romney is not electable. For what it’s worth, take my word for it. When this man talks, he’s easy to attack. When this man talks, he’s too easy not to believe & respect. When this man ran for President he was ganged up on by the rest of the Republican field to the bitter end. Mitt Romney, a man who sounds like he selling lemons at a new car dealership.
Splits Conservatives and Rhinos maybe
Never expect the expected
from our Saint Joan.
GEEZ, do they have a form somewhere for stories in the media that starts with the title “_________ spilts GOP”? I’m starting to wonder if they really do and just fill in the _______ with whatever the new angle is?
“conservatives who don’t care what establishment figures in or out of the GOP think.”
Ah....he knows me so well!
YMMV.
I used to think left had a monopoly on fussy narcissistic bastards, who think the world revolves around kissing their rear ends and stroking their inflated egos. Sadly I'm wrong and I now realize that there are many of these same kind of worthless ingrates on the right who are posting on FR.
I, like many here, was surprised when I heard the news of Sarah resigning. After reading and hearing her statement I'm quite comfortable she made the decision she thought was best for her future and the future of her family. I believe Sarah is a good, honest, and courageous person who has had great success as mayor and governor and I have no doubt she will have continued success with whatever endeavor she pursues. I know Sarah Palin isn't perfect, but then no other person or FReeper can claim perfection either, and I don't look to her as my savior because Jesus Christ is the only one who can fill that position. Despite Sarah's flaws or what ever disagreements I may have with her, I have nothing but the highest respect and admiration for her and if she does run for President I will vote for her in the primary, and if she gets the nomination I'll proudly vote for her over commie in chief Hussein. Now if she doesn't get the GOP nomination, I'll vote for who ever does get it because Obama has to go and that's the most important thing right now. I'll still be a Sarah Palin fan though, and no matter what trials and tribulations she goes through this is one FReeper and conservative that will never turn on her, because the world is filled with too many fair weather friends, which unfortunately describes some FReepers as of late. It's easy and gutless to kick a person and abandon them when they're down, but a real friend will always be there in both the good and the bad times. I don't know about you but I bet Sarah could use some more friends right now.
As for Sarah's critics, I have nothing but contempt for you and your worthless opinions. Any so called conservative who makes derogatory, libtard like comments about Sarah and says stupid crap like Palin is a quitter, is stupid, doesn't talk good enough, isn't up to the job, is week, is evil, is trailer trash, is a whore, is a bad mother, is a traitor, is a rino, is too conservative, isn't conservative enough, etc etc should stick their heads in the toilet, flush several times, and then look in the mirror and see what insufferable jackasses they are. all of you who trash Palin have done nothing to advance conservatism and the conservative movement except post snarky comments about those you don't like on the Internet, which doesn't advance anything but your dumb egos. Sararh Palin has worked her butt off and has taken alot of bullcrap as a mayor, as a governor, and as a mother to promote christian values and a conservative agenda for her family, town, and state. This is much more than I can say for her FReeper critics who think that just because they've been a FR keyboard jockey for ten or more years, they're the greatest political experts and the most courageous people on the face of God's green Earth. If any of you Palin Critics can fill Palin's shoes better than she can then I dare you to run for governor of your state. And when the media and the left viciously attack your spouse and kids, let's see how long you endure. I bet if you Palin bashers spent just one day in her shoes you would be crying like little girls and hiding under your beds like the cowards you truly are.
If any of you Palin bashers are offended by my post I don't give a rat's rear end because I'm tired of being nice and polite to those who find great joy in stabbing our own, like Sarah Palin, in the back just because they don't get their way. From now on if I read a Palin thread and I see a FReeper making derogatory statements about Sarah Palin I will treat that so called FReeper the same way they treat her, and if I get kicked off of Free Republic because of it I won't shed one tear because it's embarrassing to be around a bunch of sourpusses who are more than happy to join the left and use their talking points to trash a good and decent person like Sarah Palin and her wonderful family.
Obama is the enemy, not Palin. Her willing critics on the right need to grow up and grow a pair because they're the ones who are acting like the quitters and the cowards.
This is exactly the fight the party needs to have
and then move on.
Splits the GOP? Nah, no more than it was split before the Nov. election.
this is the guy that ripped Palin on Morning Joe. Zero credibility.
Could be on to something there but remember the DC RNC/GOP and the vast majority of R senators hate her beyond belief.
We will find out soon enough.
