How's that big tent looking for the GOP today, eh?
With the Republican left out in force sliming Sarah Palin today, we desperately need to keep a record of these treacherous, back-biting vipers who are right now trying to destroy the one good thing to emerge for conservatives during this election cycle.
With any luck, this list can serve as an archive of the traitors in our midst who should NEVER get any support from Conservatives again. With these folks in our ranks, the conservative movement will never make any progress.
The purge should begin right now.
There isn’t much difference between a F and a D-, I’m afraid.
2012 is a chance for a clean slate.
No, you are full of crap accusing someone of bigotry simply because you don't like his reasonable deductions.
Would you have called rocksblues a bigot if he said the same thing about Fred or Duncan?
No, we can see who the real bigot here is.
I would think only a democrat stupid enough to diminish the sitting Governor of the largest state in the Union to "hockey mom."
I’m in and have even already started.

I cannot and will not support a Rino for election ever again.
Why not?
Thanks EE, saved me the trouble.
Real conservatives are expected to rubber stamp "next in line" Establishment candidates like Dole, McCain, and Romney.
Real conservatives are also expected to set their core agenda items of the right to life, protecting marriage, the free market, free speech, and privatizing government aside in order to let RINOs push their pointless agenda of whatever and whatever.
All of that came to bitter fruition in the legendarily poor candidacy of John McCain.
Ironically, the antidote is found with a certain North Star: a gentle Alaskan woman with an enchanting penchant for saying, "You betcha!".
I've said since day one that if McCain won, the republican party would have their excuse to never, ever, nominate another conservative for President.
The only reason I stirred from slumber to vote for this RINO was because I perceived an unspoken offer to the conservative base to make a Conservative leader of the party once McCain left public life if we supported him now.
I specifically went home at noon, called the RNC.
Told them McCainwas not my guy, that I was going to sit the election out, but when he put Palin on the ticket, I started paying attention, especially to Obama, and at that point did every thing I could to get McCain elected and defeat Obama.
I told them the trashing of Palin coming out of the McCain campaign and from RINOs is unacceptable. And that they will never get another dime from me and TAKE MY NAME OFF THEIR LIST.
I'm amazed anyone could be so blind that you would have to tell them this!
It's like having to explain to someone that wind is NOT caused by leaves wiggling on the trees.
I didn’t even need you to propose it. I turned it off yesterday and I am done with the Fox network. Carl Cameron and Fox can ‘kiss my grits.’ TV off.
What if Obama didn't really know how many states are in the Union? What about Biden really didn't know FDR didn't go on TV?
::rolling eyes::
You have absolutely no idea what you are talking about. Palin drew massive crowds and energized the base. But it was an uphill battle all the way for McCain with the September economic battle.
You really need to read FR more and the MSM spin less.
I don't really understand your logic here, unless your quoted "PUMAs" is referring to democrat PUMAs.
McCain would have lost in a deluge without Palin.
I don't doubt that. I think she was an incredibly successful strategic pick, on many levels. However I think the loss was due to the number of Rebublicans who were convinced to deny their support (by not voting or voting third party) to McCain prior to announcing his selection of Palin.
McCain’s nomination was engineered by the eastern urban establishment elites who run the Republican party. The problem is, there isn’t a lot of difference between them and the eastern urban elites that control the democrat party.
I think you’re right, they supported the Palin selection because they thought it would appeal to a certain class of gun clinging, bible reading people in the hinterlands. I don’t think they OR John McCain had any idea that they were going to get the reaction they got at the convention and later by selecting Sarah Palin and I think it scared the {insert anglo saxon noun} out of them.
My question, and feel free to flame away, is whether or not the name at the top of the list of Palin bashers should be George Bush? Maybe I’m just being paranoid but the timing of our recent “economic crisis” seems very suspicious to me. Why was it necessary to react to a crisis that has been building for over a year four weeks before the election?
Talk about your October Surprise, it destroyed McCain’s momentum and brought his campaign to a grinding halt. Could advancing the “bail-out” when he did have been President Bush’s one last swipe and McCain and at the same time damaging Governor Palin enough to make sure that the reins of power in the Republican Party remained in the hands of people who shared his more liberal views?
OMG!!!
I’m glad one you mentioned PowerLine. Has that place been depressing or what. They just gave up.
Oh for Pete's Sake...Use Your Friggin Brain!
Nazis and Communist "purge" with prisons and bullets! Are you seriously equating "blackballing" with communist purges?
“Mitt Romney. Through surrogates of course.”
That is so spot on.
