This is a message to the RNC and any potential Palin haters. Many of us will look for a 3rd party candidate if the GOP settles for another John McCain or even another "compassionate conservative" in the mold of George W. Bush. We want the real thing this time and Sarah Palin is real.
We will split the vote. And we will take as many of we can with us.
This is not a threat. This is warning.
As for potential 3rd candidates. I would even vote for someone like Alan Keyes if he takes another shot at is. Perhaps Tancredo. Donald Trump has expressed intrest, but I think he is way too left on social issues for me. Maybe someone like John Bolton ?
I will say it. I would rather lose the 2012 election than sell out to the liberals, RINOs and MSM.
I’m sorry, but after the RINOs in DE refused to back her as the elected candidate - and in some cases, even working FOR the RATs - I will no longer hold my nose and vote for a RINO.
Don’t blame me if 0bambi gets reelected; blame the GOP for thinking a RINO would win.
I would hope conservatives have learned by now that the real power lies in:
The US Senate & House
Govenorships
State legislatures
Other state elected offices (secretary of state, Lt. Gov., etc...)
If you stay home on election day because the presidential nominee is not to your liking, then you are also giving all those other important elected offices to the left.
I agree that consertavtives aren’t going to “hold their nose and vote for the Republican” anymore (especially after the elite failed to do that for tea party candidates), but forming a 3rd party will just drain votes away from solid conservatives running in races at all levels.
Lets face it we all need to vote Republican even if they run a corpse. Another 4 years of Oblablah is not an option.
I strongly believe Romney would be a disaster for the tea party movement. RomneyCare; flip-flopping on issues; has a reputation of saying/doing whatever it takes to get elected; a son of political “royalty”; Romney represents just about everything tea partiers have been fighting against.
If tea partiers support him, they immediatly will be labeled as hypocrites (and rightfully so).
If tea parters oppose Romney they gurantee another 4 years of Obama as president.
And there is no doubt in my mind that Romney is the appointed GOP insider candidate this time around.
Really.
Point out a SINGLE instance of such and I will donate one thousand dollars to Free Republic right now.
Further, if you can show one SINGLE instance of such I will request that Jim and the Moderating staff
DELETE my account immediately. Here's your chance. Whack a troll. Back up your spew.
Either that, or sit the hell back down junior.
For such a radical sentiment, you dont define your terms very well. You sound a tad undisciplined.
Your entire shtick is posting liberal disinformation on the Obama eligibility threads. You are a disgrace.
You are the biggest Obama butt kisser on Freerepublic.
Really.

Right.
Point some of that out, too. Other than "I don't buy it", show the "liberal disinformation".
Back up your spew or STFU and sit down.
Still waiting for you to back up your assertion.
What seems to be the hold up?
I’ll get back to you at my leisure. In the meantime you can fuss and fume some more if you’d like.
Translation:
"I was talking out of my ass! I have no evidence!
When faced with providing real proof to the authorities
I run away crying like a little girl!"
Let's just be clear on the facts there, bub.
You are a troll, and a troll of the worst sort. You pretend to be a conservative on a conservative website, when in reality, you’re just crushing on a former Alaskan governor. If you really were a principled conservative as you claim, you wouldn’t threaten to run to a third party if a likewise principled conservative like DeMint or Jindal were to get the nomination.
If being out for revenge against the MSM and supporting Sarah Palin makes me a troll. I am a proud troll living in a troll world eating little troll cupcakes on my troll sofa.
The bottom line is. Sarah Palin deserves better from the media and her own party. You can’t argue with that. I have tried to get your side of the story. It quite frankly makes so sense.

Let me add something. I could support a Jindal or a DeMint if they defeated Sarah in a primary depending on how the primary goes. and who conducts themselves with class.
however there had been so much poison even in our own party that its not something that conservatives should just forget over night. when they attacked her, they attacked us in middle America and it was vicious.
DeMint and Jindal as presidential material? I think not.
Keyes ran for President as third party in 2008, he never reached 48,000 votes.
