I’m completely against it. I have noticed for awhile that Palin is strangely non-committal. I haven’t really seen much in the way of “leadership” from her, but definitely lots of commentary. She says things, but then doesn’t take it to its logical conclusion. She makes points about what candidates need to do, and then suggests that none of the candidates have done them. She bashes Mittens, but she softens it later and doesn’t really stick her head out for one of the candidates. She then promotes the idea that this brokered convention could actually be a positive experience, even though there’s no evidence that some RINO isn’t going to cheat his way into the Presidency. I assumed it was part of her contract with Fox that she had to be utterly objective and avoid bashing any one candidate too much, since I had no other explanation for her commentary. However, the thought did occur to me, even before this rag picked it up, that maybe she thinks she has a chance at the nomination in a brokered convention.
I am utterly against it. I do not believe that the convention is guaranteed to go her way even if she believes it. And number two, I’m against the idea of some candidate getting the nod who didn’t participate in this bloody primary. It seems unethical.
I am not a mind reader so I can’t say anything with any certainty, but her commentary certainly would leave some paranoid people, such as myself, just wondering where she stands. She might not be an evil Machiavelli, (and yes, Machiavelli actually was a supporter of a Republican form of government and a great historian. I consider his Discourses on Livy to be required reading.) but she has a lot of supporters who are in her ear telling her that she can take over at the convention.
Between Soros and his minions, the EGOP, and various nuts ( because what I list below had to be from some evil characters) look at what has happened to her in the last 3.5 years as to prevent her from running...
* Someone burnt her Church to the ground.
* Endless media bashing...
* Going after her kids ergo the bar scene with her daughter.
* Her parents lives threatened.
* Rumors just before she was possibly going to annouce that had her rattled.
* Having McGunniess live next door for a summer...
Compared to this ( and these are a fraction of them off the top of my head ), maybe the Run would have been a cake-walk, but has she not been "bloodied"?
Do you know how many nominees (and eventual presidents) were picked by the conventions, not the primaries?
