Scarborough: Behind Scenes, Top Conservatives Frustrated With Palin
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 02/08/2010 4:51:53 AM PST by governsleastgovernsbest

Joe Scarborough was surely right about one thing: he's going to take some flak . . .

On today's Morning Joe, Scarborough said that Sarah Palin has been "lowering the bar" with her public pronouncements, asserting that she hasn't done the necessary homework to permit her to speak seriously on the issues.

Joe also claimed that while "top conservatives" are afraid to take Palin on publicly, they express views similar to his "behind the scenes."

They are just jealous that she is getting more attention than they are. This is way too early in any game to call any plays.

Well, Joe, get back to me when these “top conservatives” crawl out from their holes and smack the Obama Administration around like Sarah Palin is doing, bringing in thousands of people to her events in the process.

You can tell any story you want with unnamed sources. This is the same tactic the tabloids use when they report that “scientists say” to support some nutball claim. Nice try Joe, but unless you produce the goods the story is bs.

Loser, liar RINO Scarborough intentionally confuses “Conservatives” with “Republicans.”

If top pubbies *weren’t* frustrated with Sarah then Sarah would be doing something terribly wrong.

But I see no evidence whatsoever that *conservatives* are frustrated with Sarah. Only RINOs.

Palin IS the top Conservative.

Not that it takes much to be more Conservative than Scarborough.

Hey Scarborough, I'd worry more about Mika “My favorite founding father is Abraham Lincoln” Brzezinski's homework if I were you.

What’s the difference between Jesus and one of Joe’s “top conservatives”?

One’s his imaginary friend...and one’s the Lord and Savior of the universe.

Until conservatives (or whatever you want to call them) quit eating their own, we’ll never get anywhere in this country.
