For the record I voted for Sarah Palin in the FR poll, but was disapointed that only 40% of FReepers agreed with me.. I would like to see a new FR poll asking how many FReepers are happy with Sarah Palin.. I bet it would be 90% ---- the same as her approval rating in Alaska.... and soon to be her approval in the USA !!

On another note I wonder if anyone is making bumber stickers that say Vote for Sarah PALIN for VP... because come November that is what I will be doing... John McCain is tha “baggage” that comes with that vote.. and then in 2012 we (THE GOP) can regroup and consider are options at that time.. but for now.. I am fully on board with Sarah Palin as VP ——

now.... here is a line I have not used in a while

TOWARD VICTORY !!!

So it is your position that it doesn't make any real difference whether one votes for McCain, or votes for Obama?

No, I have made my position abundantly clear on this thread

Under no circumstances will I and nor should anyone else ever vote for a Democrat.

I will vote for McCain and enthusiastically work for him if he changes his positions to the morally and conservative principly correct position on the following issues:

1. Amnesty for Illegal Aliens
2. Carbon Cap-and-Trade
3. Embryonic Stem Cell Research

Sarah is the closest thing we’ve had to a conservative.

I’d hate to see that ruined.

[SoConPubbie]

Well, I can see that you are in an irritable mood, and it is getting quite late, and you don’t seem to be getting it.

So I bid you good night.

We can continue the fight another night.

TOWARD VICTORY !!!

This is not victory. It is surrender.

[rabscuttle385]

I'll give you that. She's head and shoulders above McCain. I'd rather that she was the one at the head of the ticket.

I’d hate to see that ruined.

Let's wait and see.

I'm back on the undecided fence. Well, aside from deciding against directly voting for Obama...that just is not going to happen under any circumstances.

[dixiechick2000]

It’s good to see that you are in the “thinking” mode.

I wouldn’t expect anything less from you.

It’s good to see you, again. ;o)

[rabscuttle385]

This is not victory.

There is no victory for conservatives this November, unless we manage to keep our positions in the House and the Senate.

The only glimmer of hope is that Sarah Palin is a genuine conservative (to use another Freeper's words, "Reagan in a skirt") and that McCain will be out of the picture by 2012.

You're seeing it.

The seething hatred these clods have for John McCain have blinded them to all else.

And I speak as a former CMcCD (Certified McCain Despiser), my disdain for McCain (hey that rhymes!) is well known to ANYone who has seen my posts during the primaries, but the primary season has ended, and we are faced with the following choices:

President McCain, or

President Obama

Come November 5th, there is not going to be any 'President-elect Bob Barr', or 'President-elect Ralph Nader' , or anything like that, it will be either Obama or McCain preparing for a transition into the White House.

The ideological purists can either eat their freakin' vegetables, or go to their room. There IS no third option.

So tell me Chick, how much of a RINO do you think Sarah Palin had to immediately evolve into, in order to accept the VP spot on McCain's ticket?

How soon will we see these ideological ayatollahs turn on Palin with the same ferocity they have for McCain?

I say, give it about 30 days, tops.

[rabscuttle385]

It’s good to see that you are in the “thinking” mode.

At least I'm not in the pissed-off rant mode ;)

If Juan does anything else stupid, I may lapse into that mode again.

[mkjessup]

Well, I can see that you are in an irritable mood, and it is getting quite late, and you don’t seem to be getting it.

More projection, I'm in a great mood.

So I bid you good night. We can continue the fight another night.

Next time, don't bring a gun with a little sign that says "bang" to the duel.

[rabscuttle385]

The seething hatred these clods have for John McCain have blinded them to all else.

And the apparent desperation of others on FR has led them to turn to anything remotely "conservative" even if it's not at all conservative in actuality.

How soon will we see these ideological ayatollahs turn on Palin with the same ferocity they have for McCain?

That depends on whether she is a RINO like McCain.

In other words, if she starts mouthing off about amnesty or carbon credits. I'm in a wait and see mode, while you are automatically assuming that I'll turn on her just for the sake of it. I don't do that; and I don't know any other dissenter here who does.

Ping to post 211.

"So tell me Chick, how much of a RINO do you think Sarah Palin had to immediately evolve into, in order to accept the VP spot on McCain's ticket?"

She didn't need them...they needed her.

She is awesomely involved in energy.

IOW, she's not a token.

She is the Real Deal.

One more time, you go to the polls with the candidate you've got, not necessarily with the candidate you originally wanted. (thank you Don Rumsfeld) This isn't a perfect world, if it were, I'd own a big Cadillac and my dogs would piss gasoline.

Wait and see.

The ideological purists can either eat their freakin' vegetables, or go to their room.

The problem with that analogy is that, while eating vegetables will usually improve your health, electing McCain will only give us amnesty, carbon credits, and whatever else Soros' team dishes up for our consumption.

Of course, my remark presupposes that the vegetables in question are acceptable for consumption.

This election, the difference is mouldy overcooked vegetables (McCain) vs. rotting, maggot-infested undercooked vegetables (Obama). Either one will make you sick.

The only thing to look forward to is dessert (Palin). Eating the latter vegetables will only get you Biden, and that's just nasty.

"At least I'm not in the pissed-off rant mode ;)"

LOL!

I hate those modes. ;o)

"If Juan does anything else stupid, I may lapse into that mode again."

Please...trust me on this...Sarah is the best decision he's made.

Check in here in 4 weeks.

She's a dynamo...

Do you think it would be safe to say that Sarah Palin is enough of a principled conservative that she would not have accepted the VP slot unless she believed that McCain (with his 82.3 percent lifetime rating from the American Conservative Union) was not too liberal for her to run with?

I've never said that McCain is the perfect conservative candidate, far from it: he'll never be that. But he's all we've got and I say we better get behind him now if we want to have a chance of stopping Obama come November.

[1035rep]

The seething hatred these clods have for John McCain have blinded them to all else.

Take a look at the FR poll we have running. over 10,000 votes, 94% supporting the McCain/Palin ticket. The dissenters are a tiny insignificant group, 3 percent, about the size of  a gnats anus.

I put that in bold. ;o)

She's my kind of woman.

Sarah Palin is more of a man than Obama!

Bullcrap. That which stands against you stands against you still- It has just changed it's clothes.

McCain is a lyin' two-bit traitorous bastard, who is not fit to run for dog catcher. Palin is no more than sugar-coating on a turd. End_of_story.

Allow him to ride into office on her skirt and y'all will regret it, surely you will.
