I think the primaries are being moved up to force Palin to declare sooner than she intends...

See Post 170.

Your assertion doesn’t hold water.
I know a PDSer when I see one, just like I know a buttinski whenever I encounter one.

[DJ MacWoW]

I don’t know. I know Crist was a Rino. And I think that I read it could cost Florida delegates. So where is the benefit?

[DJ MacWoW]

Not quite.

Explain this to me. We are free to make choices on who to support and yet there is a section of FR that feels the need to deride others simply because they disagree. Isn't that called petty?

[Conservativegreatgrandma]

Oh, OK, sorry. I promise to be good from now on.

[MikefromOhio]

Hoping she'll run and claiming she will are two different things.

Not on FR. Here it's either you're with her or your a damned liberal PDS'er.

What is the point of you being on this thread? The last time I checked we still lived in a free country and can still make choices. My first choice is that Palin will run.

And your second choice is to deride and ridicule anyone else who happens to believe differently.

BTW I was here to comment on an absolutely RIDICULOUS conspiracy theory that will only serve to discredit the conservatives on this forum.

Tell me why you think you have the right to deride that? Simply because you disagree? Isn't that rather petty?

My derision is with those who can't see past their own preconceived notions and can't be honest with themselves about a situation.

The games Sarah Farve are playing isn't worth this pain. No politician is and no Palin is no different than any of the others. She just happens to say things we agree with more than some of the others. To be honest, I think that's a game as well, but time will tell.

I don’t understand why folks are so worked up over this. If she wants to run she will, if she doesn’t she won’t. Good Grief

[Longbow1969]

If she had been a candidate when McGinniss book and a movie, just released in the last few days, had come out, the press would have used the smears and demand she answer them instead of talking policy.

Oh good grief. Now your trying to tell us she held off announcing because of the McGinniss book? Please. Do you know how many excuses have been made for her non announcement one way or the other? The Palin fanatics always make up some new excuse for the tease campaign. She had to wait for her emails to be released, she had to wait for some legal deadlines based on when she quit her gig as Governor of Alaska, she had to wait for the other candidates to be vetted, etc, etc. There is always some new excuse. Next it will be because the weather was bad, it's hunting season and the family is busy killing moose, Fox wouldn't let her quit, the blogs have been mean to her so she had to let things calm down, etc.

[Conservativegreatgrandma]

Mike is right.

[deport]

States did the same in 2008 so what’s the difference or whom where they trying to eliminate with the early dates?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Republican_Party_(United_States)_presidential_primaries,_2008

GOP February 5 rule Under Republican National Committee rules, no state was allowed to hold its 2008 primary before February 5. Five states - Wyoming, New Hampshire, Michigan, South Carolina, and Florida - moved their primaries ahead and were subsequently stripped of one-half of their apportioned delegates by the RNC.

[MikefromOhio]

Based on what? What you’ve heard in the press? Obviously you know nothing about Palin.

And YOU know everything about Sarah Farve?

This is what I'm talking about - not everything everyone is saying is a press talking point - a lot of GOOD conservatives have serious issues with the way Brett Palin and her supporters are handling this situation.

[dmz]

Not sure how your 170 addresses the comments Sarah could make to avoid continued speculation about the ifs and whens of her decision.

[DJ MacWoW]

Here it's either you're with her or your a damned liberal PDS'er.

And? Trolling threads in order to annoy people that you disagree with is a liberal trait. It's the LIBERALS who want to silence those they disagree with.

And your second choice is to deride and ridicule anyone else who happens to believe differently.

Who came on a Palin thread to insult her supporters? Good job too. Petty but you don't care.

My derision is with those who can't see past their own preconceived notions and can't be honest with themselves about a situation.

And what would that be? She has not given her decision nor has she passed any filing deadline.

Patience is a virtue.

[DJ MacWoW]

There’s always a PDSer willing to ignore common sense. Isn’t it too bad that you’re one of them?

[antceecee]

So I guess Chris Christie is playing games... how about Rick Perry when he was not yet declared? Was he playing games? The “playing games” mantra is media created and those here who swallow and spout it are enablers of the most corrupt media I’ve seen in my lifetime.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

If there were signs that she was actually planning to run, you might be right, but I haven't seen any.

My guess is that your primary source of information is Katie Couric.

If she's not going to run, then apparently believe that she wants to alienate all her supporters forever.

If you actually believe she is that dumb, then you haven't been paying attention to anybody except Katie Couric and Dr. Phil.

[Longbow1969]

Notice how the instant you post what is an obviously true political observation, the operatives rush in to throw cold water on it?

LOL. The "operatives"? Have you lost your mind? It's pretty clear that most people on this thread think this "moving the primaries up to force Palin to declare" conspiracy theory is just dumb, yet you think the derision is coming from "operatives". Now the Palin fanatics think FR is so overrun with "operatives" that they actually manage to constitute a majority of posters on some threads. Paranoid much? Have these "operatives" been sleeper agents all this time just ready to leap out and sabotage a potential Palin campaign? Come on, stop with silly conspiracy theories.

[Conservativegreatgrandma]

Palin needs to be worshiping at the feet of Roger Ailes. How much is he paying her a year for her nothing interviews. I have tried to watch a few of them and she says NOTHING of substance. It is meaningless drivel and yet the Palin worshipers are wowed by her. Maybe they’re just much smarter than I but I don’t get it. Someone post when she says something of substance.

[Conservativegreatgrandma]

Thanks

[DJ MacWoW]

I’ve actually looked at what she’s done and who she is. Have you?
