I don’t disagree. McCain was and is a RHINO but Palin in my personal opinion is not the choice, sorry. She just doesn’t have credibility to a wider audience. There has be others in the party that would fit the bill of being conservative AND credible and the ability to articulate the message without coming across as negative and hateful. Is that what you want? The majority of Americans to see conservatism as negative? I want the conservative message to be presented in a way that speaks to people that is how to win elections and it is a positive philosphy.

Again 91% of Republicans don’t agree with you at this time. I admit Sarah’s popularity with the party is bound to diminish over time but isn’t one of the main criteria for leadership is having the support of the base, allowing the leader the opportunity to move ahead and go on offense rather than constantly looking in the rear view mirror to guard against who is going to stab him or her in the back this particular week. Sarah is in a good position now. Whether Sarah wants to take full advantage of her popularity within the party and strike while the iron is hot is up to her. But there is no denying that she could cut a wide swath over the Republican political landscape in the next 4 years if she wants to.

She just doesn’t have credibility

Why do you say this? What information is this based on?
