Sorry but cjeck out some Palin threads...there are 100’s of posts that prove the point.
The "point" being what? That Palin supporters are some sort of cult? That's a pretty twisted view, in my opinion.
The last time a poll of prospective presidential candidates was run on FR, Sarah Palin won it with 81.6% of the Freeper vote. That leaves 18.4% who supported some other candidate.
Now, it's pretty obvious that everyone who supports some other candidate isn't vehemently opposed to Sarah Palin, but some are. Almost pathologically so. In my estimation, they don't account for more than about 2% of Freepers.
You want to talk about a cult? There it is.
Here's my point. There's a reason that so many center-right Americans support Sarah Palin. She stands for, and embodies much of what we believe in. She is a direct reflection of us. She is also someone who has lived an exemplary life, and who has been a tireless public servant for most of her adult years.
It shouldn't come as a surprise that so many on our side support her with great enthusiasm, and that most defend her good name as strongly as they would defend their own family, or their country.
If you cut Sarah, we bleed. Don't be shocked when we react with extreme force and prejudice.
Every candidate has their unquestioning defenders. One can certainly come across them on a Cain or Bachmann thread.
Are you one of them?
