“You might want to remember that ...Rollins ...DECREASED her support.”

I MIGHT want to, but that would not make such an obvious falsehood true.

I don’t doubt one bit that a small handful of small minds could possibly have made their support decisions based on some pre-announcement remarks by a guy paid, in that case, for his very public and honest opinion of Sarah’s situation from the view of an old-school campaigner.

Of course, I certainly would not admit it in public if that was the full bloom of my decision tree.

There is plenty of room this early for both fine ladies. And I don’t find many faults with either. Debates are a great way to compare folks who both look good on paper. I’m anxious for those to happen.

But I sure ain’t committing my early donations to someone who has yet to commit to me.

I love Palin, but I am admittedly biased for Bachmann partly because she lives in my hometown and I am more familiar with her great and principled voting record.

But I DEFINITELY will vote for either if they win the primary. And that’s all I expect from other level-headed Republicans.

I’m glad you’re open to SP, but as for the ‘obvious falsehood’ RE MB, you are dead wrong. Have a look around the conservative sites. MB’s hiring of Rollins cost her conservative support in spades. All those ‘former’ supporters out there left her camp in large part over her hiring RINO Rollins.

The threads here on FR alone bear that out.

We have no idea if Rollin's remarks were "honest".

What is easy to point out is that Rollins' remarks, specifically about Palin's intelligence, was classless Democrat propaganda.

I think it's a small mind that doesn't include Rollins' remark and Bachmann's silence those remarks, as a part decision making process when picking a candidate.

I don’t agree with you about the Rollins thing.

As soon as Bachman hired him the first words out of his mouth were anti-Palin. And .. after all Palin had done to help Bachman win her election - it was not just in poor taste. I will have to hold my nose to vote for Bachman if she is the nominee (which I don’t believe she will be).

Bachman made Rollins apologize to Palin - IN PRIVATE - but there never has been a public denouncement from Bachman regarding Rollins comments. Sooooo .. does that mean that Bachman agrees with Rollins - but she’s afraid to admit it ..?? Or does it really mean that Bachman is terrified of Palin getting in the race ..??

If I’m considered “small minded” so be it. But, I support Palin FIRST.
