She’s so in their head....even though she’s never said she was running!

but if she did win, would you vote for her?

No, so long as her support of McCain and his un-American agenda is still outstanding at the time.

And just how did the Republican Establishment feel about Ronald Reagan, Mr. Bernstein?

If party leaders don't want Palin -- and I think they'd be nuts to want her, but that doesn't mean they won't -- then they'll have little trouble keeping the nomination from her.

That's what President Connally thought:

...but there's just no way that anyone is going to select her as their running mate after the way she treated the McCain campaign.

How's that again?

So, I’m assuming you did not vote for McCain in 2008..you don’t have to tell me who you voted for as it’s none of my business.

"First, and most basically, voters ratify the decisions of party leaders."

This is 'exactly' how left-wingers/socialist/communist types think - the party 'elites' control the levers of power and the "masses".

An absolute, libtard idiot!

No, I did not vote for McCain in 2008, largely because I don’t vote for liberals, LOL.

I can tell you that I didn’t vote for Obama, though.

Well if the GOP had done their job in 2008 there wouldn’t have been a liberal running for President..actually you know what, I take that back..can’t blame the GOP, McCain won the primaries, people vote for him..blame them for nominating him

I'm curious. Do you really hear Ron Paul talking to you when you wear your tin foil hat?

“but give them some positive buzz from Rush and Hannity and the rest, and that can be created real fast.”

.
In their wildest dreams! (except that Hannity is not his own man, and is the voice box of Rupert Murdoch)

As opposed to Ron Paul and his un-American agenda?

“Can you even imagine what the jourbalists would have said if she’d turned her back on the man who picked her to be VICE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES?!”

Rabs is just a kid; no political experience to draw upon. Give him a few years to see how it works, and he’ll be eating the same brand of crow that all the Jonnie-cum-lately “Reagan fans” that flood this board do.

True dat.

I was really busy at the time so I kinda just sat back and waited for the GOP to put forth a conservative nominee, never expecting that McCain would end up being the one nominated.

Or maybe I'll have figured out that playing the part of a political pawn (as most of us tend to do) is useless (since we are all expendable) and that I should instead focus on extracting as much as possible for myself out of either side.

Foolish reply.

You will regret it...

Classic Palinista come back.

When all else fails (or you can't come up with a rational defense because your IQ is below 70), just attack the other poster.

Riiiight.

My past support of Rep. Paul in a primary election in which the alternatives were Mike Huckabee and John McCain is irrelevant to this discussion.
