At the very least, Gary could have provided a photo of himself, with his article, so we could determine if he looks as stupid as he actually is.
One thing is for sure, and that is that he is going to have a Kool Aid mustache because he has drank a lot of it.
He definitely went overboard on Palin in calling her feckless. That is patently unfair as well as inaccurate. I do think Conservatives need to let go of Palin and stop, literally convincing ourselves she is our new leader well before the time.
That is not Gary’s watch though and he says these things to demean and would love it if all the claptrap he was spewing was true. It is not. I have seen a lot of the Jindal and Palin love-fest going on here at FR and in my opinion it is the wrong thing to do at the wrong time.
That is the problem with the Party. They want to engage in some popularity contest and we want our own rock star I suppose.
What we should be doing now is promoting our ideology and our beliefs, explaining why what we believe is better for America and Americans. Promoting our beliefs and fighting for them is what will win elections. Think about this past election; it was Rudy v Hillary, right? How did that work out for Rudy and Hillary? Seeking out our own Cult of personality three years before the time is not going to be helpful. In fact I find all of this a bit silly. Flame away, but when the time comes for choosing, regardless of whether it is Jindal, Palin, Romney or anyone else; I say to them, “show me”. So far, I do not see it but we have four years and many things can change for better or worse in that time.
It is time for Conservatives to man up and stop indulging in fantasy scenarios and start spreading the reality of our beliefs and ideologies that lie at all our cores. As soon as next Summer, when gas prices have reached $4/gal. once again there will be a nation hungry to hear our beliefs and ideas.
you’re right. We have to put forward our principles first and then we’ll see if the candidates (and their records) can match up to them.
