But I am sure Crist doesn't see it that way. He sees a political gap being filled with our independents friends and pro-immigration crowds in Florida. In his new personification, he seems to envision himself following the same strategy John McCain is pursuing in Arizona. The problem is, Crist hasn't been able to get Sarah Palin to campaign for him in Florida in order to pacify the conservative "haters" as McCain has been able to do in Arizona.

The question is, does Sarah Palin consider herself to be a McCain-Republican?

It's a legitimate question. Campaigning for someone means you want them to win. In Sarah Palin's case, should McCain win, he will still be in the Senate when she runs for the presidency in 2012. Should she with the presidency in 2012, John McCain will play a dominate role in her administration, perhaps even the leading one. So the question is fair ask now that she is stumping for McCain in Arizona; Does Sarah Palin see herself as a McCain-Republican like Charlie Crist?

Divide and conquer...nice try Farrah.

[Man50D]

The fact she was willing to be his VP running mate and currently endorses his reelection already answers that question.

[Windflier]

Are you a McCain Republican, are you just a retread Democrat mole?

[mkjessup]

'McCain Republican', that is flawed marketing, kind of like other failed products such as:

'Clay's Cockroach Food' - can't beat 'em? Feed 'em!'

'Bailey's Burlap Underwear' - with DuPont pink fiberglas insulation!

'Genuine Spittoon-Brand Tobacco Juice' - who needs to chew tobacco anymore?

Be a McCain Republican, Washington is FILLED with traitors, now you can be one too!

Well, Gov Palin didn’t govern like that in Alaska.

[Melchior]

Is Crist a compulsive gambler like McCain? Is he a vituperative foul-mouthed pol beloved of no one but his wife and daughter. Is he the captive of special interests? Does he exaggerate his wealth? Is he terminally stupid? If so, he is a McCain-Republican.

"Should she with the presidency in 2012, John McCain will play a dominate role in her administration, perhaps even the leading one."

Assuming that McCain wins his reelection, then it seems unlikely to me that he would quit his seat for a position in a hypothetical Palin administration. Or do you just mean that he would be influential from his position as former Palin patron and senior Senator from Arizona? That is not unlikely, although he would be in his late 70s by then.

[dforest]

I suppose he has chosen to be so.

[TexasCajun]

As long as she doesn’t support that guy with the initials Mitt Romney!

[Gator113]

With the conclusions you so wildly make, it is abundantly clear that you believe in the Easter Bunny.

[death2tyrants]

John McCain will play a dominate role in her administration, perhaps even the leading one.

More inane and baseless projections from another Palin basher.

Worst. Vanity. Ever.

[StandUpChuck]

She has stated time and time again that she is a Reagan republican, and yes, Reagan also worked across the isle. It’s a matter of bringing those across the isle to your point of view, not the other way around like McCain.

[SoCalPol]

Why do you advertise your ignorance to all.

Who do you support for president in 2012.

The I don’t know, too early, etc. is the answer of a
tool of the left.

[tips up]

Time will tell whether or not she is. Doesn’t really matter at this stage of the game.

If she is a RINO her political career will go nowhere. I’m sure she is smart enough to realize that.

She probably feels a deep sense of loyalty to McCain as he picked her to be his VP. No sense in her burning bridges at this stage either.

Baloney! It is a troll-like hand grenade thrown into the crowd to generate chaos...

Note: I am NOT calling you a troll...{:-)

[VideoDoctor]

The question is... “is Sarah McCain a Palin Republican?”

[Gene Eric]

>> The question is, does Sarah Palin consider herself to be a McCain-Republican?

No, as far as consideration is concerned, Palin's publicly stated that she's a Reagan Conservative.

The question should be: Why does Palin feel the need to continue sacrificing herself for McCain when she and her family have already given so much.

[McGruff]

Aw Jeez, not another Sarah Palin is a RINO thread.

[McGruff]

In the mid-1990s, David Farrar (left) was awarded the title “Master of the Net” by one of his online political opponents, Janice Moira Graham, who went on to become an (unsuccessful) Alliance Party election candidate. The two frequently duelled in the nz.politics group on Usenet, a pre-Web network of Internet discussion groups that has been fading into obscurity in recent years thanks to the rise of blogging.
