Palin would be a much better and more well known 3rd party candidate. Ross Perot never wanted to be president, but he did his pal a favor by pretending to be conservative and split the republican votes. Clinton would not have won either race without him...and yet we here about how popular he was. The left’s narrative is NEVER to be believed. Why do you think the left sinks so much money into moderate republican races? If the mods win, they have a comrade, if they lose they have a comrade. That’s a win-win. We need a 3rd party to break away from the moderates who use the dirty tricks from the leftists’ playbook. We need to stop fooling ourselves into thinking that the republican party is going to become conservative or ever really listen to the base. I personally think that Palin would win a lot of women from any party, except the most extreme left. Palin would not enter the race to throw the game to one party or the other. She would be a great candidate, unless she chose Karl Rove, Steve Schmidt, et al to run her campaign, then she might as well stay at home.
I am a big Sarah Palin fan, having followed her before McCain asked her to run with him. I love that woman and respect her greatly.
Her move into the management of politics (instead of the candidacy) is wise. She stays in politics yet does not have to put up with the attacks that a political office invites and protects.
Should she run, I will work for her with all my energies. But I seriously doubt that will happen.
Political campaigns are a dynamic flow. You must look at the voter block and know how conservative or liberal your candidate must be to win in that district. That is why we have rinos. There are areas where a pure constitutionist will not win. I would rather have a rino than a democrat; and yes, there is a difference.
If we want to change politics, we must educate the people. We cannot do that unless we seize the media - - which is where we should put our energies.
