I take it these are the new RINO talking points.

[Sarah Barracuda]

And he worked for the McCain campaign, just goes to show what kind of pricks McCain surrounded himself with, no wonder he lost

[St. Louis Conservative]

Enough the usual old candidates being foisted on us.....I’d personally love to see someone like Mike Pence or Paul Ryan run....especially Paul Ryan because he has such a strong grasp of the fiscal situation we’re in and what to do about it.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

She's unelectable, don't you know?

[Frantzie]

Anyone interviewed on NPR is shilling for the Dems.

[Texas Eagle]

It’s not a question of which Republican will run against Palin in the primaries, it’s which RINO will run as a write-in or third-party candidate after she wins the Republican nomination.

[EyeGuy]

NPR and the RINO wing working together.

How quaint.

Sarah Palin and the Tea Party are going to clean their Commie clocks.

They can FEEL it, even now.

[Maelstorm]

Mike Murphy is the same genius who thinks if we only have more fags and pro abortion single women then we will win more elections. http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/washington/2008/07/mike-murphy.html

[JaguarXKE]

If Sarah runs (and my money is that she will), these RINO asshats won’t know what hit them!

[Sybeck1]

Romneycare Mitt and Vat Tax Daniels.

"Romney Disses Palin Again - This Time by Proxy"
"Who's Mike Murphy? He's a Romney guy!
He's hated Palin from Day One...when she was announced as McCain's VP nominee,
he was the jerkwad on the air with Peggy Noonan when she made her infamous hot-mike disparaging remarks about Palin...
nd he himself was calling the Palin choice "gimmicky" and "cynical."
They never gave Palin a chance.
They had contempt for her and for the ordinary Americans she represents."

"Murphy is a Romney hack.
Although he worked for McCain in 2000, he switched to help Romney for the 2008 race.
He now works for Palin-deranged MSNBC as a token Republican."

[McGruff]

Never been RINO hunting. Yet!

[Scythian]

I am the king maker here !!! Palin will never be president if I, the 'Magnificant Bastard' have anything to say about it. When I get out me and my FreeMason buddies will fix the primary so that our RINO will be chosen before any of you Tea Party jerks get to vote. Mark my word American People, you're too dumb to run this country and you know it. I'll be back, I am above the law. Just you wait.

Palin is smarter than most of her detractors and has pretty good instincts. She knows how to recover from a mis-step. She learns.

One of the things that make her so much stronger than they expect, and one of the things that make it hard for them to get a handle on her, is that she has a principled core, and she really believes what she says, she really means what she says, and she really says what she means to say.

She pretty much is what she appears to be. Her public persona is pretty much who she really is. I think her supporters always had that sense about her and the more people know her the more they know this about her.

When she said she wouldn’t run unless there wasn’t anyone else, most of us understood that she meant, if there were no principled conservatives running. Some probably thought that was a pose; I think she really meant it. She isn’t looking to see who is electable, she is looking to see if any constitutionalists are going to step forward. And if they don’t, she will. So far, they mostly aren’t.

She won’t run unless she thinks she can win; I think her ego is enough in check that she won’t kid herself. If she’s running, you can bet she is convinced she will win.

And she will probably be right.
