You couldn’t get a clue if your name was Colonel Mustard...

I’ve heard her and she’s unimpressive...

Let me ask this of you, if McCain does win the nomination, would you support him or the Democrat in the general?

Very good question!

[Cboldt]

-- would you support [McCain] or the Democrat in the general? --

To this straw poll, I answer "no."

More specifically, "neither." Exactly the same choice presented in the presidential election of 2008, McCain v. Obama. The only reason I didn't no-vote for presidential elector was the presence of Palin's name on the ballot, and in hindsight, it is a mistake to decide the presidency based on the VP candidate. Never again.

FWIW, I also no-vote Susan Collins and Olympia Snowe.

More trollbait questions. Tell me, why did McCain throw the election to the Marxist Zero ? Y’know, the same liberal puke you’re shilling for ? The difference between a Democrat and McCain is that the Democrat is honest about their political affiliation.

It would depend on who is more conservative. If it was a typical liberal 'Rat vs a 'Rat collaborator like McStain, I would write in J.D. Hayworth.

And if McCain IS re-elected, Sarah Palin will bear the responsibility for any and all of McCain's liberal-RINO behavior for the next six years, and any presidential aspirations she may have had will progress from swirling the toilet bowl as they are right now, to being flushed right on down to the septic tank. And she will have no one to blame for it but herself.

All Sarah Palin had to do in this Arizona election was to state that she would always 'admire' and 'respect' John McCain, however she would respect the wishes of the GOP voters of Arizona and allow THEM to decide who their Senatorial candidate will be and that it would not be proper for her, a non-Arizonan to insert herself into a purely Arizona debate. Wish McCain good luck, and then GTFO.

Endorsing McCain was a lose-lose proposition for her and it doesn't speak well of her political savvy.

But what the Hell, she endorsed McCain, and that's all that matters to you anyway. If she endorses Sunbeam bread, you'll be running off to the grocery in a few hours to pick up a half dozen loafs.

[Sarabaracuda]

Have you never voted for someone whom you didn't agree with 100%?

For the record, I do not support gay marriage.

[Sarabaracuda]

In what way is that statement an ad hominem? I didn't call anyone an idiot, a troll, or a jerk. Those arguing with me do have a very narrow definition of what it is to be a conservative at least according to who they will and will not support. rabscuttle has attacked both Sarah Palin and her supporters her quite viciously in the past. Why does he get a free pass?

[Sarabaracuda]

Then you are allowing even worse candidates to become elected.

[fieldmarshaldj]

They get scarcely worse than traitors like John McCain.

[mkjessup]

Rabscuttle’s posts are based on FACTS and hard cold data.

Unlike you, whose posts are the results of an emotional mixmaster of ‘feeeeeeelings, whoa, whoa, whoa FEEEEEELINGS’.

You have been utterly dismantled and discredited in this thread and exposed for what you are. If you had any self respect at all, you would quietly move on along to some RINO-lovin’ website, which IS NOT Free Republic.

But you’ll hang on until you get the big lightning bolt, and I’ll enjoy it when you do.

[b9]

You are by far the LEAST trollish, MOST polite, and most good-natured poster on this thread. Speaks volumes about your candidate.

[mkjessup]

Good news for you b9, Pearle Vision Centers are having a special this week, get those eyes checked today, ‘B4’ it’s too late.

[Sarabaracuda]

Other than special cases like NY-23, if you do not vote for the Republican you are aiding the Democrat. Third party votes and write-ins are worthless.

Sarah has a unique insight into John McCain and I am sure that she is doing what is best for America by endorsing him.

Sorry, I prefer Mrs. Baird's though if Sarah was a baker instead of a stateswoman, I would certainly consider her opinion.

[taildragger]

When is the deadline for Hayworth to sign up? It'd be fun to show up at rallies with Hayworth signs.

Which is why the Senator has asked Gov. Palin to put in a good word for him.

IMHO 2010 is going to be a rout for any incumbent.

2010 will be the penultimate throw the bums out event, and my guess is the Senator senses it and that is why he asked Gov Palin once again to help drag him across the finish line.

Let us hope it doesn't work this time either....

[Sarabaracuda]

Thank youn

[Sarabaracuda]

Thank you.
