Thing about what really happened.
I believe the style of the attacks and the personal nature of the attacks caught Sarah Palin off guard. Not only Sarah Palin, but the entire campaign Steve Schmidt and others.
Steve Schmidt called Mary Matalin upset and had no idea what to do.
Schmidt didn’t care for Sarah Palin personally. But he wanted to win and there was nothing in the playbook to deal with those type of attacks
What happened to Sarah in 2008 was not normal.

KARMA will take care of things. I dont have to do anything.
You remember that kid, when a fresh load of KARMA shows up at your front door in return for your posting threats like the one you made in post #91.
I KNOW you won't do anything, because you never HAD the stones to do anything, you don't have 'em now, and you never will.

“Schmidt didnt care for Sarah Palin personally. But he wanted to win and there was nothing in the playbook to deal with those type of attacks”
Some of the most disheartening attacks after the election came from Schmidt himself.

You are delusional. After 8 years of BDS, none of those people expected anything other than what they got.

You are nobody important. As I said. People need to be upset about what happened to Sarah Palin in 2008. The only way to correct it is for her to succeed.

I am not delusional.
The Campaign had no idea how to deal with the attacks on Sarah Palin. They were caught off guard. That is the truth.

“We need to realize that Huck, DeMint, McLame, Jindle, Newt, Romney, Pawlenty, Rudy, have no chance to beat ZERO whatsoever.”
DeMint does, the rest are clowns.
” Thune has a lot going for him. “
A possibility....still way too early for a choice yet.

... she had with conservatives, and we will not forget. Palin is finished.
When pigs fly, maybe. Sarah Palin is for America, and not just in it for herself. She also showed loyalty, and bravery, in supporting McLame.
"...the important thing here is that John McCain and I, we share a vision for America"
- Sarah Palin
a.) John McCain's vision for America is not a conservative vision.
b.) Sarah Palin has stated in no uncertain terms that she "shares John McCain's vision".
c.) Sarah Palin is no conservative if she "shares" McCain's liberal-progressive agenda for our Nation.

Right and im not defending him at all. hes a joke.
I am saying that the attacks on Palin were not “normal”. I have never seen anything like them before. I don’t think most people had.

McCain was boring, old, a RINO, and GWB redux.
Sarah gained him votes.
McCain “we have nothing to fear from Obama”
Sarah: “Obama pals around with terrorists”
TELL ME WHO WAS THE WEAK LINK THERE?

” I think most conservatives still support Sarah Palin. She is still invited to tea party events,..”
I disagree. I would need real proof of this. Conservatives here in Arizona, by and large, don’t support her.

But Schmidt sure did know how to launch attacks on her after McLame’s failure of a campaign didn’t he?
The guy’s job was to see this stuff coming. And Palin is a politician. Maybe she didn’t get that kind of treatment in Alaska but to defend her by using the excuse that she just didn’t know that would happen makes her sound stupider than she is.

John McCain. by far.
I wish she wasn’t supporting him. But she has her own reasons to make her own choices.
I would put her record up against Obama’s any day.

You are nobody important.
I never said I was. And if I am nobody important, you are even LESS important, because you're just a big talking punk.
As I said. People need to be upset about what happened to Sarah Palin in 2008. The only way to correct it is for her to succeed.
Well then by all means, let Sarah be Sarah, and let Sarah succeed then! She shouldn't need the likes of you making threats to people who are not supporting her that they need to "leave a light on" at night, or suggesting that someone may be digging through their trashcans and closets, now does she?
You do Sarah a disservice with such threats.

It doesn’t make her sound stupid. It means that she had a more positive opinion of people and our society.
I don’t think she believed they were going to attack her children. She thought most people were better than that.
naive. not stupid.

She’s a smarter person than that.
She should have known that her 17 year old daughter being pregnant would be an issue. Was it right to make it an issue and attack Bristol personally? No. But this is politics. And she was going up against the biggest thugs in the game.
The campaign knew it would happen. Sarah knew it would happen or else she wouldn’t have informed the McCain camp about the pregnancy during the vetting process.
Point is, simply because she was viciously attacked in 2008 doesn’t mean we should automatically elect her to vindicate her. That is not going to help this country.

She deserves our support. She is one of us. She represents regular people.
The attacks on her family were worse than anything they did to the Bush family or the Dole family.

I haven’t heard anybody say or write that Sarah should be the 2012 GOP presidential nominee to VINDICATE her for the 2008 campaign. Certainly I have never used that argument.
I simply believe she is best prepared to take Obama on one-on-one and that it will take someone with superstar abilities to defeat the Messiah. Having said that, that is why the GOP has primaries, to separate the wheat from the chaff. If Palin doesn’t pass muster so be it.
