Stumping to keep Obama’s veto proof majority? Wonderful.

Oh please... She said that she'd stump for those who share her ideas and values, regardless of party.

You can imagine that there aren't too many of that, and that the DNC will keep them from associating them with her in any way.

But what she does by saying this, is signaling the GOP that she isn't theirs.

Given the demonstrated ineptitude and corruption of the GOP, a conservative GOP/Blue Dog coalition makes a lot of sense in bringing sanity back to the House. It is clear that the RNC by itself has no interest in recapturing the majority, so why waste time on losers?

Your concern is valid.

That said I can't think of one Democrat in the Senate and the House who shares her values on "limited government, strong defense and "energy independence."

Can you?

No, stumping to show herself committed to issues. Remember, she has always said, “........, whether you’re a Republican or a Democrat or of no party at all, .........” And she’s changing the rules of the game. She has apparently read a book called The Thumpin’, some kind of a companion tome to Rules for Radicals, and has learned to live the anti-The Thumpin’. Good for her.

Consider, also, that it will rile up the ultra-leftist, America-hating base of the Dumb party and cause fissures therein. The persons might abandon the party and reduce its members to only bipedal mammals. There are still entirely too many of them, but any start is a good one.

You see, here is the disconnect; Some “Conservatives” are still wrapped up in the GOP vs Dems war, when in truth the American people are SICK of political party BS! It’s NOT GOP v DEM, it’s CONSERVATIVE v NON-CONSERVATIVE! Until you understand that, you will continue to be quite happy with a GOP that is AT BEST DEM light.

The Democrats she’d support would be the sort that would never side with Obama.

Or could we finally be seeing an alternative to the false choice between the Stupid Party and the Evil Party?

That was the first thing I thought, but, why should she work for the GOP anyways, the way she’s been treated?

Do you blame her?

I sure don’t know of any Conservative Democrats, but then what do I know.

As for keeping the veto proof majority, that’s an interesting observation.

How many Democrats have we seen jump ship to defeat things like the Stimulus bill?

I don’t know who is giving Palin advice, but they should be on the DNC payroll. I wouldn’t give them a dime for the direction they seem to be urging her to go in.

The veto-proof majority will be enabled by the likes of Collins and Snowe rather than every Blue Dog voting in lockstep with the commies.

Promoting principle over party, as it should be.

Most excellent.

True conservatism. Pay attention, you might learn something.

I guess you forget that Ronald Reagan was hated by the Republican establishment as much as Sarah Palin is now. Reagan reached out to blue dog democrats and that is the only reason he won.

The Republican establishment is no different than the democrat establishment. I hate the Republican establishment and I suspect there are a lot of democrats who hate the Democrat establishment.

She's building a values and ideas movement that America has been waiting for. When did you of all people become obtuse? We saw what good a Republican majority did. Now we want a conservative majority.
