Merry Christmas.
Maybe I should say your lack of sense means you’re a troll from DU.
LOL! Leading off by reducing your OWN position to reductio ad absurdum in one step is not a good move.
I’m just telling you the truth.
No, you're speaking for the Washington establishment, and seeking to infiltrate the grass roots in an ineffectual attempt to spread FUD about Sarah and the Tea Parties.
Seriously, the meme that Sarah Palin is "inexperienced" and "stupid" is similar to what they have tried on EVERY Republican except Bush '41: being head of the CIA and eviscerating Ferraro "and I've been a SCHOOLTEACHER" was enough even to shut up what corresponded to KOSKiddies back then.
Speaking the Daily KOS, evidently the reference to DailyKOS hit a nerve with you.
Saying that "[u]nless the Republicans wake up, move to the right and court Tea Party conservatives and float a candidate that actually embodies those values, they'll lose in 2012" is fine: which is exactly *WHY* they need Palin.
Look a the sales on her book, the lines for her signings, the foaming-at-the-mouth derangement of the left.
The left *knows* she's everything Obama pretended to be.
And a call for "we need experience NOW more than ever" is leading with their chin: for it was Obama's Pink Unicorns in lieu of policy which allowed the Communis Trojan Horse to enter.
Palin doesn't need what the annointed call intelligence: she needs common sense to filter what the experts tell her. And she has the common sense and humility to LISTEN on policy, and the intelligence to get up to speed quickly.
The last thing I want to see is Palin/Whoever on the Republican ticket, a conservative Tea Party candidate on the ballot stealing what thunder she has, and another 4 years of this idiot in office because he had the most votes with less than a 50 percent majority.
Nice try, Mr. Frum.
The tea partiers will embrace her as long as she continues to be Sarah.
Cheers!
All the blast faxes and all the letters did very little. I believe both houses are bought and paid for, and; these clowns who represent us, with damn few exceptions, are all on the wildroot cream oil (The grease for you younger folks).
Until we refuse to vote for those who have made careers in local, state, and national office, we cannot expect to have a common man or common woman representing us who has not received favor/s from a special interest group.
We need to turn off the damn TV, limit political spending to include all advertisements to damn near peanuts.
We need to insist these clowns visit us, the people, without reading or spouting anything preplanned, and; they are to answer questions from the audience- nothing else.
No TV appearances where they get paid. In fact, no one serving in office should be allowed to make a cent from any activity while in elected office.
huh? What candidtate did I say I supported more conservative? Try reading a little more carefully, I said that sadly, she is the most conservative....
You give tea partiers a bad name...they are patriots not whack jobs like yourself, of course, not one substantive response to Palin’s spotty conservative record...higher taxes, homo rights, failure to advance 2 pro life measures...if that’s the “Sarah” you leftests are going to support it’s your choice, but don’t try to pass yourself off as a conservative, we are all on to you....
Ignore grey whiskers, he’s been hitting the bottle again...let’s spend our energy on informing true conservatives, not these whack jobs who don’t have a clue about politics...
These are the same guys who stayed home on “principle” refusing to vote for the lesser of two evils, and look where that got us? They have done more damage to this country by essentially voting zero into office than those of us who held our nose and voted for McCain..
Incidentally, I spent several afternoons on the McCain/Palin phone banks over a month before the election.
What did you do to help the GOP?
Cheers!
Darkwing, OldSarge -- please check the posting history around the time of Palin's entry into the 2008 race:
Obama 48% McCain 45% in CBS Poll (Oversampled Dems)
"The race for president has returned to about where it was before the first presidential debate, with Barack Obama and Joe Biden holding a small lead over Republicans John McCain and Sarah Palin...."[snip]
BARR THE SPOILER?
While Zogby has McCain up by two today in a post-Palin bounce, there is one ominous line and statistic in the article: "Still, storm clouds remain on the horizon for the Republicans, a four-way horserace contest between McCain, Obama, Libertarian Bob Barr and liberal independent Ralph Nader shows....." ********** BARR: TOTAL: 5% DEMS: 2% GOPers: 4% INDIES: 11%

Hello fellow Freepers, if you could please take a second to vote "yes" on this poll. Basically, it is a fight between us (good capitalists) AND extreme environmentalists with communist ties who want to see an end to all development/capitalism. Thanks! The poll is Here
Not a word for Sarah then, not a word now.
And he's telling Jim Robinson that Sarah is not conservative enough. :-)
Note the lack of any substantive alternative. And an echo chamber going with TheLurkerX. Sniff?
But if you *were* a conservative, you'd have read her book, found the responses, and STFU.
Ergo, your remains.
Better go tell Markos and Frum it ain't working.
Cheers!
