Your post seems outrageous to me.
You are saying, by proclamation, that one should support Palin without reservation or leave FR. You accuse people who do not support Palin of “not walkig the walk”,,I suggest your walk may not be everyone’s walk. And people may view Palin as unelectable because they have weighed the evidence so far and come to that conclusion.
Since when do you or anyone dictate what others should think or for whom they vote?
A lotta nerve is what you have.
So, tell us what evidence you have weighed and how you came to your conclusions. Others will speak for themselves.
Well, considering that my walk IS Conservative and fully in accord with the mission of Free Republic, what does THAT say about everyone else, as you suggest?
I have to agree that you are way out of line calling for a Palin or leave FR position.
You owe a lot of people, even Palin supporters, an apology.
Now kids, we are getting ahead of ourselves here. Nobody is a bigger Sarah Palin fan than I. I’m a repeat donor to her PAC and maxed out to her legal defense fund. I busted my ass for a week in Nevada right before the election out of my regard for Sarah Palin, not John McLame.
However, it’s yet early to be bickering over 2012. Sanford or someone unsuspected may prove to be a stronger candidate. For that matter, Sarah may not even run. Perhaps her destiny is to be a Senator or Secretary of Energy prior to shooting for the Presidency. Maybe she’ll go ahead and do the commentator thing for a while. Maybe she’ll never even run for the job.
I think we can all agree that whatever she does, she is going to be a powerful voice for fiscal restraint and Constitutional government, and a mighty kingmaker in the Republican party. Her values, by and large, are my values, and I will support her career in support of my values. But it takes nothing away from her appeal and accomplishments to recognize that she may not be the silver bullet to beat Obama. Let’s cross that bridge when we come to it.
