Every time I hear the whining about Sarah “quiting” the governorship, I think about the Kenny Rogers hit, “The Gambler”. She obviously knew when to fold-em.

“but their attacks have been far more personal”

Very true, Al. With Reagan, the attacks did not involve his family or his personal history. It was his age, his intellect and his martial tendencies (he’s gonna start WW III), not necessarily in that order. The charges were unfair and untrue but they weren’t overtly nasty and most of the American people worried about them until they saw him on the stage with Carter.

With Palin, they have fired all their ordinance-the good, the bad and the ugly-and they run a real risk that was absent with Reagan in 1980. The American people collectively have a great sense of decency and fair play. They react very strongly to unfair attacks (as witness the level of unity the country achieved after 9/11 and Pearl Harbor). The MSM is in the territory of creating support for Palin because they are unable to destroy her, especially with women and with anyone who has been in a position where someone is taking unfair advantage of them.

Her spunk, grit and humor in the face of it wins converts. The left always overreaches. Or, as an old priest used to say, “the devil always bites his tail.”

Hey there my old friend. You are right. BOR is the centerpiece. All the rest are simply adornments. I still watch, tho.

You and your 3rd Party loser pals must have not gotten the memo...

Palin backs Murkowski's primary opponent in shot at D.C. Republicans

And what are Graham and Hatch running for, again?

Replies come late at night or during the night complete with the parents and guffaws and chortles and silly name calling. I have no interest in any of it. Reply to me without half quotes or just take a pass. Better yet, quit pooping on Sarah threads.

Good to see you! Yeah, BOR is awful, but someone in my house usually watches him, so I almost always hear him in the background. Tonight, I tried to watch the Sarah segment, but was interrupted for a moment by a phone call, which is the reason I plan to TIVO and watch the replay so I don’t miss ANY OF HER WORDS!

LOL. TP Trolls and disruptors go way back in history to make their point.
Never mind what’s going on at present time and do NOT look at the Marxists in power.

Looks like the ankle biters are after you. That is why I am nearly invisible on these forums. So much to think about regarding our future - and yet the sideline yappers only know disruptive discourse.

“Right, they would have to register with the government, but BOR was doing the talking... and all the ILLEGAL ALIENS that did not come forward would be deported.”

Poor guy. He doesn’t understand that (after sealing the border) you have to identify the group of illegals first then deport immediately the ones who don’t turn themselves in
(ie-register). Once they have registered, they can be monitored and deported in due course. It is what is called “governing”. This guy is into slogans and posturing.

And Ted Baxter is a clueless loud mouthed buffoon...an apologist for Obama. I think he is odious. And dumber than a box of rocks. Really thick.

I am seldom their target, primarily because I won't play their stupid juvenile games and I stay off the flame war threads, but let them come onto Sarah threads to spew and soil, and it's another story.

I miss you and your input. I hope you'll be here a lot more come election 2012.
