Do you think the people giving to Mitt right would be giving to Sarah if Mitt went away?

[Finny]

Do you think the resources of conservatives like Sarah, the people who spend time and money educating folks about her and countering lies and ugly PR put forth by her enemies, don't have to expend those energies and funds on the likes of Mitt and the GOP old guard, as well as the MSM and Democrats? That is where Romney and his ilk sap the strength and resources of real conservatives, and why Romney should be aggressively hounded OUT of the field now, the sooner the quicker.

In any case, some Mitt supporters would give to Sarah in lieu of Mitt if he left the scene, I expect. I think a lot of folks give to Mitt because they haven't researched him and take him at face value -- I once took him at face value, too, and was inclined to favor him in the early primaries. Then I started paying attention to all of the things he said in his speeches, not just the reassuring plattitudes, and found that every single time, his "solution" to problems entailed more and bigger government, although he would always preface his proposals with the contradictory and false promise that he was going to promote capitalism, freedeom, and free markets.
