The Tea Party won’t stand at all if it alienates Palin’s supporters. I’m beginning to think the whole movement is just a ruse bankrolled by liberals to try to split the conservative movement.

The Tea Party won’t stand at all if it alienates Palin’s supporters. I’m beginning to think the whole movement is just another ruse bankrolled by Soros to try to split the conservative movement! (I'd give that a 20% probability) I agree with this message

“Little newbie, why don’t you take a hike on over to GOP.com where you can apologize for RINOs to your heart’s content instead of cluttering up FR, a conservative Web forum.

SNIFF x2 “

Shut up you right wing tea party extremist, you!

You are a RINO. You call us right wing extremists, just because we won;’t support McCain? McCain is a one man wrecking crew on everything conservatives hold dear.

“How is she being used if she’s going along with it? “

Because she has no option, if asked to support him. If she declines, she looks like the most ungracious person on Earth and STILL loses. So, he’s using her because he knows she can’t say “no.”

“You Palin haters always compare Sarah to a prostitute when she stands on her own. You are a bunch of woman bashers.”

Woman bashers?

This alone tells me you are a troll.

I LOVE Michelle Malkin. If she ever ran for public office I would walk over hot coals to help her win.

Is Michelle a woman hater too?

She has an option now. With the recent 'coming out' so to speak of Cindy and Meghan McCain and their pro-homo agenda for queer marriage, all Sarah has to do is have a quiet one-on-one conversation with McCain and say:

"John? You will always have my admiration and respect, but the blatant support that your wife and daughter are showing for gay marriage, and their sharing YOUR name makes that support very high profile, I'm just not comfortable signing on to your re-election campaign, I will be happy to stand by my statements about how I admire your military service and how you have served our Nation, but I think the time is now here for the people of Arizona to have a full and unfettered discussion about the issues without my becoming an issue, a person who doesn't even live in your State, so good luck John, and my best wishes to you and your family."

See? Problem solved. And I wouldn't even invoice Sarah if she wanted to use my hypothetical scripted conversation to get herself out of this mess!

Now now, don’t go confusing the troll with logic when she has none of her own.

“Oh does it? I saw here on FR just the other day about a Democrat starting up a Tea Party party in Florida no doubt to split the conservative vote in November. So who is ignorant? “

We ALL know about that lawyer DNC plant in Florida, and it has nothing to do with the discussion here.

You made 2 big mistakes.

1) You suggested that tea party people were being taken over by “RIGHT WING WACKOS”

2) You called FReepers “WOMAN HATERS” if they were angry at Palin for bucking up scumbag traitor McCain

You are NOT a conservative, but you ARE a disruptor.

That part would be good enough. No real need for homo part of it.

Palin has, apparently, decided to start playing the game. I have a feeling she feels the need, or has been convinced that there is a need for her, to ingratiate herself with the GOP establishment. Frankly, after this I don't want to support her for any office. We'll see.

“The only people McCain ever fights are Conservatives. Frankly, Gov. Palin is being played here. She’s expected to be gracious and kind and show eternal fealty to McCain, though that loyalty is a one-way street. McCain has no loyalty to her, madam, he has absolutely none.”

Winner!

So because a candidate is supported by the RNC, they are not worthy of our support?

I did not say that. I like the RNC picks in NH and CO. The worst GOP candidate in the race is not worth our support, in the case of Florida and AZ they want to nominate Crist and McCain. If you support Rubio over Crist why in the world would want McCain over Hayworth? Crist and McCain are very similar.

Did you support Scott Brown?

Yes. And what does that have to do win this?

McCain is far from perfect, but that is no reason not to support him now like we did in 2008,

If JD Hayworth runs there sure is, THERE WOULD BE SOMEONE BETTER IN THE RACE. Duh. McLame is not entitled to support. Remember we are talking about the primary here. It's not McCain versus a rat it's McCain versus a conservative Republican.

Did it ever occur to you that Sarah has more knowledge of the situation than you or I?

Still presuming she just must! be right. No I don't consider that an option. From a conservative perspective she should be urging Hayworth to run not endorsing McCain, that's a no-brainier. I also maintain that I have a better take on bailouts than ex-President Bush did because despite his superior education and experience compared to me to his stance was obviously wrong. (ain't I arrogant for a peon)

She either A)Does not have superior knowledge of the situation B)Is backing McCain purely out of loyalty even though she knows Hayworth would be better. Or there's a possible C)She's not as conservative as we think. I don't think it's C.

Whatever the reason, enabling McCain is a mistake. If you don't think it is I don't know what to say.

We don't need to and shouldn't support every move Palin might make even it's the wrong one. Don't feel you must. You can think she's not perfect and doesn't always make the right decision and still support her.

RE :”Did it ever occur to you that Sarah has more knowledge of the situation than you or I?

Of course she does. She gets it from above just like GWB did.

And it was Sarah's facebook message that got all those MA liberals to vote for Brown. She killed Health Reform twice, once with 'death panels' and a second time with Brown. No human could do this alone unless they were being guided (wink, wink)
Those that deny that it was Sarah's message that won the MA Coakley/Brown senate race are ‘Palin deniers’ and are either liberal trolls or Romneybots! Only one force could have got the liberals in MA to elect Brown, Sarah!

The plan is president Palin will get illegals to vote for Republicans after she legalizes them(McCain will be her chief of staff). She did it in MA Senate race and will do it with illegals.

Palin is even stupider for campaigning for Rino's like Mccain and Perry.

Even a RINO like Perry is preferable to a 'rat. As I have said before, I could handle Sarah's support of Juan McLame if he were running against a 'rat (but not against a better republican). Unfortunately in the Texas Governor race, we don't have a better candidate who is viable.

Tea Party activists are rightly outraged by Palin’s decision to campaign for McCain, whose entrenched incumbency and progressive views are anathema to the movement. At least she has an excuse: She’s caught between a loyalty rock and a partisan hard place.

If Palin campaigns against Hayworth for this RINO fossil I'm done with her. That would be a tragedy but if she hasn't got more integrity than to support this old fool I have no use for her.

How is she being used if she's going along with it?

Not only is she going through with her support for Queeg, she's doubling down and reaffirming that support emphatically.

Sarah just crossed her very own bridge to nowhere. And she did it willingly.

I truly believe that Palin is actually telling McCain that she will support him as long as he continues to stand up against Obama and not try to compromise with him.

I think this is a smart move personally.
