I could have told them eight years ago he was a closet socialist (compassionate conservatism is socialist light).

McCain is a bailout socialist too. Central economic planning. From each according to his abilities (taxpayers) to each according to his needs (corrupt and mismanaging CEO and corporations).

The elitist in both parties believe they know better how to spend your money than you do.

I may be registered as a Republican but that is just so I can vote. I am really a conservative.

Please find us another Regan before it is too late!

“Please find us another Regan before it is too late!”

Found. Her name’s Palin. Just a couple weeks ago she proposed a 7% cut in spending with a more than 50% cut in capital spending. S&P a month ago reaffirmed the state’s AAA credit rating and lauded its financial managmeent.

That’s more Reagan than Reagan ever was.

Count me in as an independent since I changed my affiliation as soon as McCain was nominated.

If Palin can roust the GOP in 2012, I may rejoin but they get nothing from me or my support until there are radical changes.

I’m not convinced that GWB is a closet socialist. I just thinks he lives to have a Democrat say something nice about him, and they NEVER do!

One is currently governor of Alaska...I suspect there are others...it would be nice if we could have all-conservative choices in our primaries, then the vision to pick the right one...

I recall that many conservatives realized that, back then, but there was the "he's a socialist, but he's OUR socialist" crowd, too. What blew me away was how people were shocked at his immigration stance, when it was obvious for many years prior!

Many Bushbots self-deluded as badly as the 0bama crowd has...and I fear will do so again.

We had one. Sarah Palin was our Esther for this time in our history and the sheeple wanted a ‘king.’ We’ll pay for it.
