“But they can stop her from winning the general election. They can withhold their support. They can withhold their money and their friends money. And Palin with need to match up with over a Billion dollars!”
That Billion $ figure is a fantasy the Msmlibs push to instil fear. Nothing more. Where is he going to get it with Palin hounding him for the 08 foreign donations? She already started. He cannot do it again with impunity.
The hometown crowd won’t even show to sell out a smallish fundraiser. This has happened several times now.
As for the Repubs, old boy money and support could help, sure, but the groundswell of people already lining up to donate and support her cancels them out by far.
All the ‘friends’ in DC matter not a whit against the kind of forces that are growing against their same old BS. The people gave up on the GOP. Look right here on FR how many ‘former’ Repubs there are! And we live in a bubble here as I have said before. The gen pub aren’t so committed to party politics and trust the GOP almost as little as the Dems. When we the hardcore threw in the towel, you can bet the gen pub did/is doing it as well.
THAT is where the money/support/ability to overcome regular GOP party hack cronyism comes from.
This is not Ross Perot we are talking about. And she doesn’t seem to be interested in trading them anything for their ‘support.’ I think she learned in 08 how fleeting that can be. Thus, she will owe them nothing - and thus why they will fight to stop her..but they can’t. Never have we the people had a candidate so well placed to genuinely have a chance at turning this disaster/Lib BS around...We know it and they know we know it. If we don’t do it now, there will be no second chance. Ever.
“This discussion started about Krauthammer, Will, and by inference Kristol. Those so-called intellectuals will continue to use every rhetorical trick and Alinsky tactic right through the general election unless they are called off by their masters.”
Let them keep making it up as they go along. I pray they do! People are rapidly discovering they are nothing but Dems in disguise and BS artists regardless.
People are VERY sick of the lies and BS and are waking up to it, regardless of the source. As the attacks grow over the next 17 MONTHS, there will be few left believing any of those idiots - far too few to make a difference.
I sure like your positive attitude! But I stiil think Gov. Palin has a better chance with her Party behind her instead of working against her, and I still think she is working to make sure of that support, behind the scenes, prior to her official announcement!
