let’s roll...
How can people claim to be common sense conservatives, then turn right around and perform unbelievable acts of mental gymnastics in order to justify her walking out of office?
COUNT ME IN, I don’t want to be a party of any party that has Lindsey Graham as a member. Just look at him today slobbering over Sotomayor.
The threat is there, why do you think Steele at the DNC is groveling now?
I am not sure that is the best approach, it would be easier to do it within the party. That said there are still many southerners who will “never” vote Republican. I know some, sad but they would knowingly vote for Satan himself first. (sign of ignorance)
So the real question is what is left of the Republican Party if the Conservatives bolt, and how much of the Dems realize that they have been taken for a ride by the Commies. (or care)
Next 6 months will be interesting. Dems imploding by failures in the “economy” and the public in open rebellion against their policies. And at the same time the Conservatives in a full frontal assault on the Left. It can happen.
I’m in!
I don’t have to do any mental gymnastics. It is my opinion that she pulled off one of the most brilliant political moves in modern political history.
Count me in. Tired of sissies and crooks.
ditto - the article nails it - she could sit and get hammered and not do her job as Gov or quit and start hammering back from a free position. It was really the only good move available to her.
It’s time to work outside the parties. Money and dollars can be targeted to support conservative candidates and challengers. The war between the R’s and D’ are a distraction to gin up campaign dollars, when they have the same goal and are arguing about how fast to drive to get there.
Brace for your inevitable disappointment.
I think it should be a prty within a party with its own funding and its own primary candidates and its own rallies.
Is it time to form our new party?
No, it’s time to form a shadow party. I can see Palin taking the first steps.
They’re the same people who made excuses for Pat Buchanan when he put a Black Power, lesbian Marxist in charge of his campaign.
She’s not looking to start a new political party or run for office.

I’ve never been a big fan of the third-party idea (after experiencing Ross Perot and a Canadian party that called itself C-CRAP). However, the two parties that we have at present are both looking increasingly hopeless.
Yeah, there won’t be any “sissies and crooks” in the new party. Everyone will be of one mind and there will be no disagreements or varying degrees of conservatism. Just like the Reform party. Whatever happened to the Reform party?
The Tea Party?
The fundamental problem is that on the central moral issue of our day, she is like Stephen A. Douglas, not Lincoln. She takes Gerald R. Ford's position, not Ronald Reagan's.
This thread is a case study in this problem.
However, since the Republican Party has quite obviously Whigged out, I agree that a new party is needed if we are to save the country.
That's why we founded America's Independent Party last year. If you click on my screen name, EternalVigilance, you can learn more about it.
