Main reason for the Sarah Palin bashing or anyone who is a conservative or moderate conservative Republican is
FR is crawling with anti war Ron Paul loons.
They would rather have another term of Obama as some on FR state than a Republican

Actually the reason for Sarah bashing is because she is polarizing and hasn’t done anything. Notta, zilch, not one thing for this country except run as part of a losing campaign and quit her job. She might be the next best thing since Ronald Reagan or she might be George Bush Jr... you simply don’t know what you get with her.
Is she for more states rights as she claims now in her propaganda? Or is she more for pro-life being forced on everyone? Is she for a marriage amendment? Or would she prefer to leave that to the states? It cracks me up when I hear her talk about states rights and then in the same breath talk about these other issues. This just makes me think she’s more of the same.
I don’t think people on FR hate her, I think they’re cautious of her. Heck, she’s hot and speaks well, but she’s just unproven so far.
As for Ron Paul. I don’t particularly think we can play an isolationist game as he suggests, but we sure as heck don’t need to be as imperialistic as we’ve become. Name a decade since WWI we haven’t been involved in a war or “military action”. If (and that’s a big if) we need to fight, we need to pull out the carpet bombing or another Hiroshima... otherwise we don’t need to be in it.
The great thing about Ron Paul isn’t the few things we disagree on, it is his stance of choking off government in ALL areas because of the federal power grab that has been going on for years. While it won’t happen, if you attack on all fronts, you at least have the potential to make headway. Where does he stand on issues? At least he’s proven and quite clear on his stances. He might be more intellectual than most, but he’s far from a loon.
“Conservative = disposed to preserve existing conditions, institutions, etc., or to restore traditional ones, and to limit change.”
If you go by the definition, I’m not sure Ron Paul could be considered anything EXCEPT a true conservative.
As for another term of Obama, I’d hate to see that, but I’m also done voting for the lesser of two evils. At least when my kids grow old, I don’t have to explain why I allowed this to happen. I can tell them I voted against both parties and therefore can’t be lumped in with either party. The only other option would be not voting at all, but that goes against participation in one of our most sacred rights.
Both parties are driving us over a cliff. One is pushing on the gas and the other is allowing us to coast, either way we’re going over the cliff without ever trying to apply the brakes.
