I am going to have to reevaluate my assessment of you I think.
Have you considered the damage done to Sarah Palin's credibility by the MSM? There are a lot of people who believe that she has been so badly damaged by the various media onslaughts that her electability has been seriously compromised. I personally think she is one of the best people out there, but the rest of the nation has been led to believe otherwise. They have successfully painted her as a fool in the eyes of the dimwitted public.
I perceive her as a true believer, and absolutely brilliant at this game. Whether her talents are enough to overcome the slander and libel which has been thrown at her by the Media and Jealous B**ches (Such as Peggy Noonan and Kathleen Parker) on our side, I simply don't know.
As for Ted Cruz, he reminds me of what Lincoln said of Grant. "I can't spare this man, he fights." Ted Cruz is awesome, but I still think his Achilles heel is going to be that Rogers v Bellei decision.
Sure, right now all the Liberals are saying he's eligible, but I have little doubt the slimy bastards will flip the script and change their minds just as soon as he's been committed to the task and it's too late to back out.
They will suddenly all come out of the woodwork filing lawsuits against him,(And I have little doubt that our diseased legal system will grant THEM standing) and the media will be constantly asking the question in such a way as to infer doubt. Whether these lawsuits win or not, by the time of the election, it will have convinced the American people that there is something dubious about him.
You see, everyone has spent so many years harping on the "Anyone born in America is a Natural born citizen" that the public has become convinced this is the defining aspect. Sure, "Experts" will say that a "natural born citizen" can be born anywhere, but the public mindset doesn't change on a dime, and this is contrary to what they've been hearing for the last several years.
Yeah, I hold political pragmatism in high regard. I like gaining the presidency the old fashioned way, get more votes than your opponent by nominating candidates with instant, widespread name recognition. Senator Cruz still has a year and a half to become a household name.
I want Republican/conservative uniters, not dividers.
