I Guess with your logic Sarah should support Charlie Crist, he is a Republican right..let’s all hop aboard the Charlie Crist train, he is a Republican right

First, being governor is different from being a legislator. I suppose it could happen that in that case there could be a RAT more conservative than the Republican but that is highly unlikely.

Secondly, if you're talking about a primary, I have no idea who would be the most conservative but after that, then the Republican is probably the better choice.

But in the case of a legislator, NEVER, NEVER vote for a RAT. They're going to end up voting for the likes of Pelosi and Reid. You can take this to the bank.

From the article:

When a photographer prepared to take pictures of the interview, Mrs. Palin, wearing open-toed shoes, said laughingly, "Don't get my toes in the picture — they are green on the bottom."

Indeed they were. She said the marks were grass stains she had got from her mowing her lawn the previous day.

Priceless

Nonsense. Do yourself the favor and look trought the roll calls of Congress. Not all Dems vote always in lock step. And there are plenty of Republicans voting for liberal issues.

There are now clear-cut party lines.

I am so disappointed in Peggy Noonan as of late. And to think she once wrote speeches for Reagan.

Do I hear the faint whispers of a Third Party in the snow-capped distance?

Notice how Palin is asking Democrats to join her, rather than her “reaching out” to them. This isn’t the New Tone or McCain’s reaching across the aisle crapola. Palin is telling Democrats that if you truly believe in my values and my issues then support me and build a better America. What she is doing is completely isolating true conservatives away from both parties, leaving behind husks of Democrat leftists and Republican RINO enablers.

First of all, I think she was making a general statement. I really really doubt she can find one Conservative Democrat. I have already asked if they even exist, if they don’t, then forget about it, she won’t be campaigning for any Democrat. She was just making a blanket statement, saying if there are any who shares her views she would be willing to support them, but I don’t think she will find any

Both political parties are broken and no longer represent the will of the people of America. They exist only to further their own power. The elites who cling to these corrupt power parties believe they are intellectually and morally superior to the average "dumb citizen" of America. These elites are the equivalent of the upper classes who sided with the French royalty prior to the French Revolution.

Personally, I would rather see Sarah stumping for a true conservative Democrat than see her stumping for a corrupt RINO any day. Both political parties are the walking dead, they just don't realize it yet. True Americans don't need a corrupt political party to tell them who they should vote for. True Americans are sickened that the last two choices in the presidential election were between full socialism and socialism lite. True Americans are ready for a change.

Meant NO clear cut party lines.

Are you happy with what the RATS and Obama are doing to our nation?

There are also Republican idiots voting for Obama/Liberal legislation.

Look through the roll calls:

I completely agree with every word you’ve just said. I was waiting to see her and hear her but she has become nothing but a cult figure. I have lost my enthusiasm. Her followers are as shallow as Democrat voters.

Draw yourself a Venn diagram with Conservative, Republican, Liberal and Democrat. Realize that there are parts where party affiliation overlaps with a belief system and parts where there’s a disconnect.

Palin is willing to campaign for those that fall within the “Conservative” circle, regardless of what party they’re in. It’s not about party loyalty, it’s about belief in conservative principles. She believes in them and is willing to help others who also believe in them.

Staying in a Republican vs. Democrat mindset will ensure that you don’t get her true meaning.

Conservatism is more important than following party dogma. That’s why I left the Republican party in the early 90s.

So we are down to hurling insults, huh? Did you even bother checking through the Roll Call votes I linked for you? How about a little reality check on Republicans voting FOR obama/liberal legislation?

If McCain had said exactly the same thing, what would have been your reaction ?

McCain would be pushing amnesty or some such other nonsense that is anathema to conservative voters. If he's conservative, he's not conservative in any way that is recognizable to me. To his credit, he's pro-military. Beyond that, what?

It is important to have a road map as how to advance a cause and it is IMPOSSIBLE to advance any kind of conservative cause inside the Democrat party.

Please, like you ever supported her to begin with. Why don’t you check out that great Republican list of those who supported Cap and Trade, and the ones who voted for the stimulus package. What great Republicans they are
