Sarah Palin, New Party ?????
vanity | 07/03/2008 | taildragger

Like many here, I am a political prognosticator. I followed Sarah Palin here for almost 2 years and told friends last May if McCain only chance is to pick Palin. So what does Sarah Palin's latest move mean?

“But then they lost it all once she started talking to the media and embarrassed herself.”

If you really believe that tripe, you are denser than I previously thought in your undying support for FLIP Romney.

I’m all for (1), (3), and (5).
However, I think (2) may be unconstitutional.
And (4) isn’t necessarily a recipe for conservatism. We tried this approach when we brought a certain squadron commander back from Vietnam. That didn’t work out so well, did it. And then there was that swiftboat commander who ran 4 years earlier. Neither of these guys are posterchildren for conservatism.

Keep in mind kids, Not even Jimmy Carter lost by 10 million votes.

How badly did Jimmy Carter lose the 1980 election? Really. .... I believe he lost by 49 states.

It doesn’t matter who Palin is surrounded by.
People vote for people, not campaign.

Sarah Palin doesn’t have enough people who want to vote for her as a person.
That’s why she lost to 0bama once already, and will lose again if she goes for a rematch.

“There was NOBODY there.”

Not EVERYONE could make the drive to Wasilla for a previously UNKNOWN announcement. When they know she’s in town, do you honestly think they are sitting on their couches waiting on the RINOs or LIEberal media to tell them what happened?

If the media wants to focus on her, then fine—let them do this as she relates to the events of the day as a much-needed counterpoint to Obama and the Media.

If the media ever get to the point of playing fair in the politcal circus - Sarah can more that handle whatever they lob over the net. When they start on the family crap, she needs to smack 'em down the second it starts oozing out their mouths. Do what Dims do and just say the kids are off limits. End of story.

Carter only lost by about 8½ million votes.
That’s fewer than McCain-Palin lost by.

I saw the interviews when she did them.
I was embarrassed for her.
It’s not what I believe, it’s what I saw.

I’ve got no agenda beyond analyzing the current situation as it is.

More wishful thinking than analysis, since no one knows her plan.

The next battle in this country is for the salvation of the Republic, either lead or get out of the way. Useless ankle biting does not help.

When one of your picks can attract 20,000+ without giving a free pop concert, then I will respect your choice. Until then cork it.

When we bring commanders home from Iraq and Afghanistan we should seek out the best to run for public office and clean out the leeches.

I stated that we should be selective.

John Fnnnn Kerry should have been court marshaled. He was and is a total fraud.

As far as the tele commute thing. They currently do not vote in the chamber in all occasions. And it is done electronically. I am not a constitutional scholar, but to me it makes a lot of sense to move the power center from DC. I feel the survival of the Nation depends on it. The Constitution could be amended to allow it.

the Duncan Hunterites, the Alan Keyesters, all the crybabies who say they’re going to pack up their toys and not be team players if they don’t get their no-shot candidate.

So they didn't show up, even after all your non-condescending encouragement. Sad day for you, huh?

Yes, it does matter if Sarah, or anyone else, has people around her who want her to succeed or to fail.

Sarah wasn’t the loser on that ticket.

She hasn’t done her homework and she’s turned herself into a one-woman media circus.

And how many votes did you get in the last election? And you are so wise, shame.

It’s a safer bet than the Palin juggernaut.
By about 2 million votes.

Bingo!!! I think we have a winner!
