Sarah can easily deal with the press and the Democrats. The GOPe and skittish libertarians are a more difficult problem.
Whoa there Cicero, I am a Die Hard Libertarian and I support 199%!
She has fought the Corrupt GOP Machine her whole career, we need that now more than ever.
The Ruling Class needs to be undone.
We need to unite early around a single leader, who must lead a large group of like-minded people, as one person cannot do it alone. I believe Sarah Palin has that ability to lead and assemble a team necessary to defeat the entrenched interests in Washington in the party and out of the party.
She can and will fight the corruption that is the root of the destruction of the Republic.
She can marshal the right people that have an ethical underpinning.
People will follow her.
The first thing is to work on cleaning out the electoral process - without that, there will be no progress.
Where the heck does a person sign up for that?
Good for you. Then you, and libertarians like you, are definitely not part of the problem I was talking about. But there are still a lot of freepers who don’t seem to understand that conservatism has to be a three-legged stool.
To digress for a minute, I’m a Catholic, but I spent a good part of my career working with Evangelicals toward those goals we had in common. We agreed to disagree on points of doctrine, or which was the true Church, but to fight together on what we could agree on as conservative Christians.
The same applies to libertarians and Evangelicals, for instance. Very hard to elect a conservative without votes from both groups. There are millions of Evangelical votes, but they’ll stay home unless they are satisfied on certain basic points. That means we need to have libertarians willing to oppose abortion and gay marriage, and Evangelicals willing to oppose big government.
Too many people fail to understand the need to work together and agree on some points that are basic to each side in order to avoid a far worse result.
