Great points :)
Hmmmmmmmmm well Romney is Romney, the huckster is a vile slimeball, Pawlenty wants us to forget Reagan, Barbour has lost ouch with reality, Thune is too DC and so on.
None of these goofs are in the same class as Palin or the conservative base.
I AM a voter in this district and I'm leaning toward Dan Mielke. Sean Duffy is a slick double talker and I don't trust him.
As far as looks go in this district, have you seen David Obey??
That's why she would make a great Senator as presidents come and go.
(((PING)))
These are my sentiments exactly.
Honestly, how much "charisma" does McCain have?
Hunter's problem is that too few people know about him. We rely on the media too much. That's the reason we got McCain as our candidate in 08. The GOP must go back the basics and promote a candidate who represents true conservative values. Then we need to promote this candidate via alternate media sources.
The media will start by ignoring this candidate. When that fails, they'll try to destroy this candidate. Meanwhile, they'll promote the worst possible choice for conservatives.
During the primariees, a lot of FReepers called for us to support McCain because "the media likes him."
No More "Maverick McCains," please!
Palin’s sense of timing and political strategy and her ability to handle the hostile elite chattering class remind me of what a great General once said: “Always mystify, mislead and surprise the enemy.”
He went on to say (and this pertains to how I bellieve she would govern as well): “When you strike and overcome him, never let up in the pursuit.”
Palin is constantly outflanking and surprising these pantywaists and Ivy League cookie pushers. They can’t keep up with her so they just hurl their insults from the cheap seats. It is like firing artillery when you are out of range. They don’t hit her, but they let her and us know where they are, so we can return the fire.
I would endorse that ticket.
More correction, a one time change in position is called a "flip".
LOL!
Anyway the climate was warming up through the 1990's and since then, it is getting cooler again. I would correlate the changes in temperature to changes in sunspot actively and not due to any so-called greenhouse gas concentrations. And I don't see Sarah blaming greenhouse gases either, at least not now.
There are a few others we might elect who would do something to move us in the right direction of cutting the size and reach of the federal government, but there isn't anyone on the national scene at the moment who so clearly articulates this as an unwavering goal.
I don't trust any other potential presidential candidate to work as hard as Sarah Palin to move this country back toward a strict adherence to the Constitution and sound fiscal policies.
You posted my preferred ticket! I couldn’t agree more with the original post, either. Just saw that Huckabee had a Michelle O interview on last night that will rerun today. Does he think he’s going to score points with that? What the heck is that all about!? Sheesh!
I particularly like the way she boldly remained in office.
Political psychopaths from the Democratic party were using cowardly and nefarious means to sabotage her governorship, so gave up executive power because she believed it was best for the people.
This brilliant, selfless and courageous move ensured fulfillment of her gubernatorial obligations to the people of Alaska by handing the reigns to a trusted conservative lieutenant governor, thereby cutting down the Democrats’ attempts to defeat her.
I want you to sit down somewhere comfortable, and conceptualize what it says about Sarah Palin’s character and leadership ability that she would relinquish that much personal power for the sake of the people of her state.
Let’s examine Palin’s entire political career in general, during which she has consistently refused—despite the daily temptations—to give in to corruption, and always put the interests of her people before anything else political.
This makes Palin a better leader and more qualified for the presidency than 99% of all the politicians who have set foot in Washington for the past two centuries.
I think her resignation from the governorship will finish her off. Her opponents can label her a “quitter” and ask why she couldn’t handle the governorship if she expects to “man” the presidency. Another serious problem: jealous women won’t support her.
