As a Palin fan, and a longtime contributor to C4P, this doesn’t do us any good at his point. Would Doug Brady prefer Obama over Romney? Not me.
If Romney loses Palin will get a strong shot at becoming the shadow leader on the right. And if he wins she will be a Tea Party leader that keeps Romney honest. And would have a good shot in 2020 (she’d be only 55).
So calm down with the circular firing squad right now.
Keeping Romney honest - that is funny.
Romney says ‘I will repeal obamacare the first day in office’
Romney says ‘I will replace obamacare with Romneycare’
Romney says ‘I will fix obamacare by keeping some parts and not others’
Sorry which Romney are conservatives going to keep honest.
I was a huge Palin fan until she asked Todd Akin to step down. Such a wrong message. Her formidable political character was deeply dinged by that remark, in my opinion.
So the Romney campaign is now beyond critique? No matter how terribly they run their campaign into the ground, we're just supposed to say "rah, rah, go, team!" and not offer them any advice, no matter how desperately they need it? So even if Romney decides to strap a dog to the top of his campaign bus for the next 2 months, we just have to sit back and either ignore it or tell everyone that it's a good idea because the dog will attract much-needed attention? I'm a free speech conservative, not a "get to the back of the bus and keep your mouth shut so we can drive it over a cliff" conservative.
Don't be so sensitive that you reject absolutely critical advice when it's being given.
Romney's got the kid gloves on. He's gonna lose this thing if he doesn't quit playing footsie, and come out swinging with bare knuckles.
The author is dead on the money. Heck, tons of Freepers are screaming the same thing right now.
