Thanks for your comments. I would encourage you to read my comments on this thread and my comments on this tread:

I think these will give you all the reasons why I ‘vented’ as I have.
I believe there are fundamental problems with her political viability from here on out.
You see, it takes more than the ability to attract people who believe as you do, you have to attract people who don’t believe as you do. And you can’t come off as a quitter, a whiner, a person who can’t take it, for that to be as successful as she is going to need it could be.
I wanted her to be president. The chances of that just went from about 75 percent or better to 25% or better.
To say I’m disappointed in Sarah, doesn’t begin to cover it. I think she damaged her future more than she knows.
If she wants to drum up support for others, I’m all for it. We can use good voices. In addition to that, we need people who can’t be badgered out of office.
I’ve made a number of comments on these two threads that reveal in dept what my concern are.
I appreciate the post. Thank you.
DO, I have a different take than on this.
Sarah may yet be President, and you can see by my tagline what I wish for 2012.
But she knows what you and I already know.
The turning point back for America is not 2012.
It is 2010.
If we do not win Congressional and Senate seats in 2010, there will be no stopping Obama.
She will work to get good people elected in 2010. She sees what our failed GOP leadership is unwilling to see.
And she is going to fight, even if it means she will NOT be President.
She has not done the easy thing, nor the expedient thing, nor the expected thing.
She is doing the most important thing, the right thing and the patriotic thing.
We have equal chances of being wrong or right about this at this moment of time.
This is either the dumbest thing she will ever do, or the most brilliant thing she’ll ever do.
It’s too early to decide, DO.
All I know is, like Reagan, she has a rendevous with destiny. The most important thing now is to fight Obama and his Administration, and she will work to see we get enough people elected to do that in 2010.
She is risking it all. On America. On us.
If I am wrong, I will be more despondent than you are now.
Then you can console me, my FRiend.
