They are.

Very simple. Sarah will Run. Sarah will be nominated. Sarah will Win. Period. If somehow, Mitt gets the nomination I swear I will vote for Obama as a protest vote. Unless of course, Sarah runs as a third party candidate. Why would we want a liberal that BOTH the Democrats and the RINOs would back to the hilt. I would rather have a rat in there so that at least the Republicans would fight on some things.

Palin is unelectable? That's debatable, but if it wasn't for obama, no republican would be electable.

The rinos have polluted the so polluted the GOP well, that it takes 2 years of an unabashed socialist president, speaker of the House and leader of the Senate trashing the Constitutional process and the country for the republicans to stage a comeback that they can't claim for themselves.

We hate the republicans about as much as we do the demonrats, but we don't fear them as much. Sorry, but that's not enough of a reason to keep voting for the GOP.

Honestly? I like the fact that Sarah Palin loves the country, loves being an American and for some reason I trust her judgment to do what's right for us more than I do any rino or demonrat. Those are more reasons than I have to vote for any other potential candidate at this time.

>>She expressed a wish she would keep working behind the scenes to wind the left up. The

Palin is a lightning rod for left-wing hate. She’s also doing a great job of making the RINOs unmask to attack her. She can help us more by staying very visible and drawing their fire. But if a true conservative with the gravitas and experience doesn’t stand up soon to be our leader, then she’s the candidate by default.

I’m not saying that she’s bad or dumb or any of that. The leftwing media machine has already written their version of the Palin Legend and they’ll shout it from the rooftops, and the sheeple will believe it. You know what I’m talking about if you’ve ever had the “Sarah Palin said she can see Russia from her house” argument with a Republican who doesn’t like Palin:

“She said she could see Russia from her house. She’s so dumb.”
“No. Tina Fey said that.”
“But she was making fun of Palin.”
“But Palin never said it.”
“They why did Fey say it?”
“Because she was making fun of Palin.”
“So Palin did say it?”
“No. It was over-the-top satire.”
“Well, it sounds like something Palin would say. She’s so dumb.”
And it goes on and on.

If the new Congress doesn’t do something about this alleged Net “Neutrality” BS, there won’t even be a counter-media left by 2012 to offset the leftist propaganda machine.

The argument won’t be left vs right anymore, but just which flavor of Marxism is best.

The Republicans are going to shoot themselves in the foot again and give the 2012 election to Obama. I have not voted for a Democrat for President since JFK but the Republicans will not get my vote because of the elitist running the Party. I will write Palin in or vote Third Party. I am not a Republican but I cant vote Democrat for President.

I’m afraid to ask what “DSDT” means, but I think I already know...

Women critics I can sort of understand. Lots of women secretly loathe other popular women.

Rove I can kind of understand. He's a Bush guy, but I'm bushed.

I can't understand why other male Republicans hate her so much. Do any of these Bozos think Romney really connects with anyone outside of New England? So far the only other Republican I've seen on the national stage that could excite me is Barbour. Will these people try to tear him down as well?

That’s too bad. Lowers my opinion of Ann several notches.

I would have still had respect for you. Now you are the enemy.

Oh, she's not the enemy, she's just a stupid, senile old woman looking at a much younger, smarter, and prettier woman.

I can hear the slogan now: “Tired of the establishment screwing with America? Then stop voting for them! Palin, 2012”

I won’t vote for Mitt. Im sick of compromises. Better to just vote for the dems directly, rather than endure the death of a thousand cuts ill get from a Mitt, another of the Bush clan, etc,,,

At least then we might get to a true change for the good, way faster. People get these RINO bozos, and think “thats conservatism”, and immediately lose interest.

Ann Coulter is a typical Northeast New England Yankee Republican who faked a conservative personna for a good number of years in order to sell a decent number of books. Now that no one’s buying her books anymore, she’s showing her true New England RINO self. I think a good part of her anger at Palin has to do with the fact that conservatives don’t buy Coulter’s books anymore.

I see your point, but to worry about the MSM narrative on Palin is unwarranted. They pull this crap every cycle since Reagan’s 1980 run. Bush got slammed for being stupid as well. The only one that didn’t was GHW Bush. He was a wimp. The Lamestream is as irrelevant to elections as they can be. Nobody is watching/reading them for their news. Look at ratings/subscriptions rapid decline.

They slammed Palin as hard as they could and she is still a top contender for ‘12. They have no more ammo to hit her with and the public doesn’t care. The sheeple buy her books and watch her show in record numbers.

On the other hand look at how the MSM glows about Oummer for everything. His latest poll numbers are at 38%. The MSM is more irrelevant than you think.
