One of the favorites floated by this crowd is Senator Jim DeMint who, like Sarah Palin, is a rock-ribbed Conservative. Others are Ron Paul supporters, a few Mitt Romney backers, and a handful of local-Congressman-X-for-President folks.

The problem is that most of them have gone so over-the-top in their criticisms of Sarah Palin, demands for absolute perfection, moving of the goalposts, and impossible standards, that nobody could pass their test(s) anymore. Heck, DeMint tried to give us all Romneycare, and was pimping Grahamnesty on America back when we had a shot to oust him in the primaries. He just helped recruit RINO Dino Rossi in WA to defeat tea Party favorite Clint Didier. Inhofe was early and fast behind Fiorina in California. Ron Paul? Well......do we even need to go there? The list is endless....why? Because nobody is perfect.

These candidates, however, will all get as many “mulligans” as required from this same crowd that won't accept anything less than godlike perfection from Sarah Palin. She can't have any “mulligans,” though, no sir! But let's get real, the exact same people would still be blasting Sarah even if she had endorsed Hayworth, because they just don't like her, period. It's just that the McCain endorsement lets them pretend they have an actual justification for their PDS.

They'll quickly forget their litmus tests and impossible standards, and suddenly adopt a new level of forgiveness, if/when “their guy” is in the running. Grahamnesty could be the filibuster-breaking vote that puts a 5th Communist on the Supreme Court, but you can bet your ass they won't hold it against Jim DeMint.

It's personal, and it's personal against Sarah Palin.

I think a lot of them have the pissant disease, since she’s female.

People should read your words again, because they are entirely correct.

Yeah, well said. As for me personally, I declared two things, and I stick with them.

1. I will never again vote for a RINO, and I get to decide who is a RINO.

2. If Mrs. Palin runs, she has my vote UNLESS someone comes up who can make me believe that he/she is the better candidate. As of today, I don't see anyone out there.

I am just fed up with the PDS crowd slapping her around verbally on every thread that has her name in it, and some that don't. The same things are said by every one of them like clockwork. I understand dissent, but this is getting old and irritating, so I decided to ask the question: “Who is your possible candidate ?” Not one word, just more pontificating BS and no answer.

So, I took the offensive and stirred that ant's nest a bit. I intend to keep doing that and by now, thanks to the constant yammering, we all know who they are. So let's see who is for whom, and let's remember that this is not a one way street.
