I have NEVER seen such blind allegiance to a candidate until encountering Palin’s followers. (Other than Zero disciples).

I'm a Ron Paul guy and well aware that people can go overboard on the hero worship thing. At least with Paul, however, we have a candidate who has taken specific stands on a range of issues such as auditing the Fed, TARP, foreign wars, the war on drugs, aboltion of the Department of Energy, and Department of Education, etc.

Where does Sarah stand on any of these issues? She has an attractive image but beyond that all I see yet are slogans, soundbites, and generalities. Her relationship with Billy Kristol is also far too close for my tastes.

Captain, what is it like to get beamed up to the starship? I mean, do you get all tingly inside?

Sorry for making fun at your expense, but all I needed to know was that you're a "Ron Paul guy".

Ron Paul, although I disagree with him MOST of the time, is knowledgeable, intelligent, and can back his positions up with substance. I just don’t see that with Palin. I think she’s sharp on energy and some social issues, like abortion and gay marriage. Other than that? Not so much.

Nor does Ron Paul bring a circus side-show of ethical and personal controversy to the table.

You better look again. Sarah doesn’t use sound bites. She states what she stands for. Look at what she has done for Alaska. It is plain as day for anyone who wishes to really know what she stands for. You don’t, you just want to attack her and put in a word for Paul.
