McCain was the candidate for the Presidency, not Sarah.
Sarah can write her own ticket. She is the only reason McCain didn't just sit down and quietly wait for the election. Without her Juan would have been visibly and demonstrably finished in October.
Sarah still draws crowds and continues to receive donations at her PAC. This with little or no advertising. People, I included, are willing to promote her.
We even go so far as to say “Run! Palin, Run!”. That's grass roots baby and not the political machine so many of us have decided to opt of, in terms of support.
She has conviction of principles that I admire and may very well be of a mind to promote those principles as President.
If we can elect some ghost on the basis of Dope and Strange, then why not someone who says “Yes, you can”.
Screw that yes we can. It is socialist pablum whereas You can elevate the individual and promotes individual responsibility.
That other guy say we all have a stake in failure which is stupid. If my neighbor fails how is that my problem and why should I be responsible for bailing him out.
Conversely, if my neighbor is self determined and takes responsibility for actions and outcomes, blaming no one, why shouldn't I respect that person.
If that person is also successful and we share similar interests, shouldn't I be a cheerleader for them.
I would rather have a person of conviction rather than a person of convenience.
How many Democrats do you think Palin will draw in now? How many Independents do you think will be drawn in now?
Look folks, you can sit there and root for her all you like. I don’t think you’re going to find that people are going to be drawn to a person who allowed words and false ethics complaint drive her from office.
I’ve said it a number of times, how does this bode for her running for the Presidency or even winning the office? What happens then when criticisms, ethics complaints, and her children are the butt of jokes?
It’s not my opinion that counts. You’re going to have to deal with others on this matter.
