"It appears to me that Palin supporters are reading a little to deep into this for a justification to throw a potential Conservative rival overboard."

Ya think?

Don't get me wrong, I like the lady and would vote for her if she is the GOP candidate, without hesitation. But it seems to the Palin faithful here on FR these days that anyone who says anything but worship for her are destined to be shipped off to Siberia or worse for the sacrilege of even feigning to support someone else.

Governor Palin was answering a question as well. She did so in an honest and professional manner.

PDS. A pervasive affliction not able to be self diagnosed. Please get help.

Wow, if this is the only reason I feel sorry for you.

West isn’t running. I like Cain a lot, but he seems to have some trouble differntiating which issues should be State or Federal. He is a quick learner perhaps.

Palin supported that jackass McCain and she is okay. So Demint chose Romney in 2008. What is the difference? DeMint is a great guy.

McCain and Romney both stink.

“Not gonna happen.”

No. The GOP nomenklatura still think that “the policy check is in the mail” is going to work. They realize they have overdrawn their account in the past 22 years, but still think it is manageable. They do not realize that not only are they in foreclosure with their conservative creditors, but that warrants for their arrests are going out in the primaries - again.

“Why is Bachmann the bad guy. Rollins was the one that shot back, not Michele.”

Do you truly not see why? Serious question.

That was not a snarky remark, it was the truth, and she even said she has her strengths.

Michele Bachman is one of 435, she has never had any leadership experience, and you know that also.

Michele Bachman has totally changed since she needed Sarah and Sarah supporters time and money to get her reelected.

i am beginning to believe that she is a Mitt Romney stalking horse, and I was a Mitt supporter last time around.

This is all about all those left wing Pubbies like Kraut,Rove,Tiny Kristol,Dick Morris,all of the Beltway Bungholes getting jobs in 2012, and 2013.

This is very sad to see, we need strong Conservative women that are not back biters that have delusions of grandeur.

Is it true that Sarah resigned from two jobs? True or false?

Is it true that Michele had not mentioned Sarah or anything negative about her herself prior to Palin’s comment?

True or false. Works two ways.

Bachmann paid Rollins to make that attack, she hired him for that attack.

Hey IL I could ask you the same question you put before Palin supporters?

In your mind it is some type of a crime for Palin supporters to not immediately switch to MB if by some freak of nature SP decides not to run.

Well what about the other way around? When MB drops out for lack of support, are MB supporters/yourself going to just get behind Sarah Palin?

What is good for the goose???

I see that Palin said something about Bachmann first. Michele had not said anything negative to sabotage Palin. I believe th last we heard on that subject from Michele is there was room for both of them.

I will if she is the nominee. Primaries don’t matter in my state. The candidate is already chosen.

I remind you that Palin actively campaigned for Bachmann in her reelection bid. In addition, if your criteria for supporting a candidate is if they supported John McCain or JD Hayworth....well.....

(From Fox News Sunday 04/12/2010)

WALLACE: How about in Arizona where you're going to have a GOP primary, the sitting senator John McCain or former Congressman J.D. Hayworth?

BACHMANN: And again, that’ll be for Arizonans to decide. I'm a Minnesotan. But both of those candidates are making a strong case. As I understand, J.D. Hayworth is closing in on Senator McCain right now. And it will be up to the voters in Arizona to make their choice.

WALLACE: You're taking a pass there, Congresswoman.

BACHMANN: Well, I know both gentleman, and they're both honorable men.

I know because she just hired him as her strategist, she paid good money for this strategy and to hire this infamous hitman.

Wat I am curious about is why you seem to think that an employee’s words and actions do not implicate the employer, if the employer is aware and does nothing to alter or negate the employee’s words and actions. You are answering a question I did not ask.

Palin did make a remark that was snarky about Bachmann’s experience.

That's a lie. There was no snark in Palin's answer to the question about differences between her and MB.
