“I do disagree though with you regarding Palin as the best hope. In order to win the majority of votes the candidate has to appeal to more than the base. Palin does not fit that criteria no matter how much the base loves her. It’s just not reasonable to believe that she ever will unfortunately.”

Forgive me if I am incorrect here but did not the RINO wing of the GOP just get it’s collective ass handed to it on Teusday? You want to go through that again in 4 years?

The way the RINOs and "moderates" been huffing and spluttering their worthless blather over these boards, the past few days -- "Now, here's what you stupid conservatives ought to do next time," blah blah blah -- you'd think they'd actually won this last time out, rather than getting their @sses handed to them by an empty suit robotically mouthing the words "hope" and "change" over and over again ;) Crazy! Absolutely delusional!

Yes, no question there. Palin was a part of the problem. She had zero credibility with the majority of Americans. In order to win an election one has to resonate with more than the base! I’m being logical here, step back and truly analyze what happened. No blame on the media etc etc etc just logically look at the campaign and the choices they made without emotion and consider it.
