This is why they keep getting clobbered in elections. Then when clobbered they say the candidate isn't conservative enough. Amazing.

You doofus. I guess that's why Ronald Reagan won two landslide elections. I predicted the other day that there would be trolls trying to diss Governor Palin.

First I'm not a doofus and certainly not a troll. You really need to get a hold of yourself and not get too excited when someone disagrees with you. That's what debate and dialog is all about. You win on the basis of your arguments and not insulting those you disagree with or shouting the loudest. What do you think this is a Moveon.org blog or the UC Berkeley Campus?
As for Reagan's victories, this was accomplished by bringing together a whole assortment of different groups. RR united many groups within the Republican Party and brought in some residual Democrats (so called Reagan Democrats). No one group was responsible for the Reagan wins. I personally know several Democrats who voted for Reagan.
Finally I don't remember where I "dissed" Governor Palin. Can you show me where I wrote this? I like the woman. I'm just not very sure she is the best candidate for VP. I'd prefer someone with more experience and more presence. The fact that she hunts doesn't mean Jack to me. I would have liked to have seen the offer go to Romney even though I'm closer to Palin on the issues. How do you like that? It's just that I think the VP should be selected on the basis of who would be the best person to step in if God forbid something should happen to the president.
