You're not talking to a McCain supporter here, nor an amnesty supporter.

I do think you're conveniently ignoring lots of things Sarah has said in her interviews about the subject, and you're taking a single issue over her support of McCain to mean something it's not.

That kind of blind hatred is never healthy.

My ‘unhealthy blind hatred’? Dig far enough back in my posts and I defended here hear repeatedly when people wanted to condemn her for what she’d said in support of McCain’s immigration position in the ‘08 campaign. That seemed preposturous to me and very unfair.

Then I was hopeful a couple of weeks ago when she used the ‘what part of illegal’ rhetoric. But she has also said there are humane ways of dealing with those here, which is politician-code for supporting amnesty (just like ‘must go to the back of line’) while denying support for amnesty. Her vigorous, above and beyond any call of duty campaigning for McCain this past weak—and saying that she backs his immigration policy, however, is enough for me to seriously question her on the issue—and on her support for McCain’s other ‘maverick’ positions.
