Dear GOP,

I have a long memory, and your Etch-a -Sketch candidate isn’t getting my vote.

I would love to hear Gov Palin at the convention and while on the podium, review what conservatives stand for, then state that the GOP has left her and does not want her vote. As such, and being a person of principles, she will aquest to the GOP wishes and will accept the VP slot of the Constitution party if offered.

FLASHBACK:

The McCain/Palin ticket was up ++4 to 10 pts
in some polls, days prior to Election 2008.
So rather than helping the GOP, Romney and
TeamROMNEY and the RNME (Republican National Media Establishment)
decided …to attack Gov. Palin to throw Election2008.

Romney, and the Van der Sloot RNME RINOs for Obama in 2008

Late in October, The American Spectator's The Prowler revealed:
"Former Mitt Romney presidential campaign staffers…
have been involved in spreading anti-Palin spin to reporters, seeking to diminish her standing after the election.
'Sarah Palin is a lightweight, she won't be the first, not even the third, person people will think of when it comes to 2012,'
says one former Romney aide…
'The only serious candidate ready to challenge to lead the Republican Party is Mitt Romney.
"Some former Romney aides were behind the recent leaks to media, including CNN, that Governor Sarah Palin was a 'diva' and was going off message intentionally."

---

The Palmetto Scoop reported: "One of the first stories to hit the national airwaves was
the claim of a major internal strife between close McCain aides and the folks handling his running mate Sarah Palin."
"I’m told by very good sources that this was indeed the case and that a rift had developed, but it was between Palin’s people and the staffers brought on from the failed presidential campaign of former Gov. Mitt Romney, not McCain aides."
"The sources said nearly 80 percent of Romney’s former staff was absorbed by McCain and these individuals were responsible for what amounts to a premeditated, last-minute sabotage of Palin."
… aides loyal to Romney inside the McCain campaign, said The Scoop, reportedly saw
that Palin would be a serious contender for the Republican nomination in 2012 or 2016, which made her a threat to another presidential quest by Romney.

---

"These staffers are now out trying to finish her off ….hoping it would ingratiate themselves with Mitt Romney."

---

"Who's the Palin Leaker from the McCain Campaign?
National Review Online The publication of a Vanity Fair profile of Sarah Palin
appears to have opened old wounds in the McCain campaign.
... the source of the “Diva” leak was Nicolle Wallace’s husband."

"Peeking Out From the McCain Wreckage: Mitt Romney"

"Someone's got to say it: IS MITT ROMNEY RESPONSIBLE FOR OBAMA'S VICTORY?"

"Vanity: Team Romney Sabotaged Palin and Continuing to Do So?"

"Romney Supporters Trashing Palin"

"Romney advisors sniping at Palin?"

It's not just Etchasketch, the entity we have been referring to as the Establishment doesn't seem to back Republicans either ~ so it's not just Conservative Republicans but the other kind too.

Somehow we've ended up in a disconnect between the old money men behind the former Presidential Wing of the Republican Party and the Party itself.

Now that doesn't make sense at all. We have had control of Congress for a number of years since Eisenhower so at some point it makes sense to move the Blue Hairs out of the commanding heights and replace them with Republicans with a broader understanding of legitimate politics.

Now, back to Etchasketch, I"m not sure he even knows any Republicans. He messes up all the time on issues where the Republican common knowledge is you don't do that ~ whatever it is.

I"d like to see him come up with names of real Republicans he's participated with in politics. I bet a decent interrogation (maybe even without waterboarding technology at hand) would reveal an emptiness of understanding that'd defy imagination.

This ol'boy, if he wants to win, is going to have to dump his campaign staff now. Maybe go to school with Sarah Palin for a couple of weeks ~ with her 'splaining things.

As long as you're going to the polls and voting in the down ticket races. I'm thinking that I'll vote for Virgil Goode myself.

Plain and conservatives everywhere will enjoy a great win by Mourdock tonite. Her endorsement put him over the top.
