She's a God, Country, Family, small government, no nonsense traditional Christian conservative. She's an outsider not corrupted by business as usual Washington politics. They hate her. She's pro defense. An army mom. She's pro-gun. Hunts, fishes and enjoys the great outdoors. She eats corrupt office holders and wasteful spenders for lunch. She drills for oil. She's a fighter. A winner!
She's the exact opposite to Obama in all respects. She's an American patriot!
In short, she's exactly what we the grassroots tea party patriots are looking for.
If a DeMint sort is willing to have the humility to realize that he needs the speaking savvy that a Sarah Palin team could bestow upon him, he would be OK too. It seems difficult to find today, outside of Sarah Palin and Michelle Bachmann, any prominent GOP politician who can both speak well and who cares about virtually all the conservative issues. Some come close but have troubling gaps, such as Jindal and Barbour.
If you read her book (I have) you’ll understand that she and her family are full free-market capitalists and have been all their lives.
If not Palin, it would have to be a pretty darned good conservative Republican. Right now, with the information I have, and with the candidates that people are saying might run, I like Palin best of the lot.
Count me in.
She has my support 100%.
If she wants to run she has my support.
Its Sarahcuda for me!!!She is going to be battle tested by the time the election gets started. I believe she will come out stronger and more able to deal with all of the MSM bs.
I like Palin.
George Bush said HE was a capitalist, too.
If she didn't understand that bailing out the banksters - rewarding failure - was incompatible with free markets, then she isn't a free market capitalist.
In the Walters interview she said "we learn from our mistakes". Fair enough. Perhaps the fact that she didn't understand that supporting the bailout was anti free market is forgivable. Not everyone understands economics to the degree necessary to get this... although she should have. But evidently even her gut didn't tell her either. That makes her kinda scary. IS she free market, or is she just interested in power?
I haven't ruled her out... but she still has much to show me. I won't be fooled again.
Ok, What in heaven’s name do you want from this woman? She has said it was a mistake, she has said she would not support it in the future and when she was Governor of Alaska she turned down stimulus money. She couldn’t come tight out and say “John Mccain’s stimulus bill stinks, and he’s a moron, but vote for him anyway, ‘cuz he’s less of a screw-up then Barry is.” Not because of power as you suggest, but maybe because she wanted Mccain to win to help ensure we win in Iraq/Afghanistan.
You can always vote for yourself since I doubt you’ll find anyone else that do and say everything EXACTLY as you would like them to do.
Definitely with you Jim. I have never made any political donation, since I’d rather give my money to further the Church rather than politics; I may change my mind for Sarah.
I think her support of the bankster bailout is going to be a political problem. Maybe I'm wrong. It is for me though.
No congressional vote in my lifetime shook me like that one did. The tea parties are a direct consequence of that vote.
Even if it were - so what? And what does it have to do with Sarah Palin
***
Tea Party Patriots is in part of the title and many of the first members of the Tea Party are from Ron Paul group...
I am sure they welcome Palin too!
I’ll pass.
I was getting a little worried about my support for Sarah here on FR, but I feel at home now knowing that you support her as well. Thank you.
So long as she doesn’t make the mistake of splitting the vote running under a third party, she has my support.
Unless something changes for the worse, I can’t see true conservatives voting for anybody but Sarah Palin. She’s bright, honest, candid, telegenic, and shares our values.
Sarah is a conservative and a Republican. She will never split the vote, she is working to reform the GOP from within.
