No sense in letting Rove take all the abuse today among traitorous Beltway RINOs who’ve allegedly never done a thing for “true conservative.” Let’s get Krauthammer into the game. This is actually a useful follow-up to the last post insofar as it’s yet another opportunity to show how Palin implicitly (and wisely) questions the dogma that right-wing candidates can win anywhere, any time, in any circumstances. Krauthammer dares her to go to Delaware to spearhead the O’Donnell campaign. Doubtless many Sarahcuda fans will say “great idea!” but Palin herself knows better:
Palin’s comments came after the last major primary night before the November midterm elections. Palin-endorsed candidate Christine O’Donnell stole the spotlight by defeating nine-term Rep. Mike Castle in the Delaware GOP Senate primary.
But the 2008 vice presidential nominee said that her involvement in races might not always benefit the candidates she endorses.
“I’ll do whatever I can. I want to help, though, and not hurt,” she told Fox News. “And, you know, sometimes it’s a double-edged sword there if my name is connected to anybody.”
Translation: Knowing how much Democrats hate Palin, it’d be silly to hand them a club in a state as blue as Delaware by appearing there frequently. If anything, it’d probably do more to alienate pro-Castle fencesitters, who likely blame her for Castle’s defeat, than to fire up Christine supporters who are already fired up. Krauthammer knows that, of course, but he’s making a point here about true belief in “true conservative.” If demographics don’t matter and it’s just a matter of preaching the right-wing gospel to convert the liberal heathens, let’s send our best preachers down there and let it rip. What could go wrong?
Oh, no he did not..... what is wrong with him?
They may just do that, pansy.
He doesn’t like skirts.
Kraut needs to go to DE and prove that she can’t.
Hey Charlie, have you been too busy to consider that Coons may not be electable without cover the likes of you?
RINO AllahPundit is also on the anti-Palin/Pro-RINO train.
He was openly pulling for Castle. So I’m sure he wet himself putting together this post.
I refuse to click on HotAir. Ed Morrisey is another squish.
He should just go down there and campaign for Coons since it’s obvious he wants Coons to win.
All this free publicity can only help her
could this be their strategy?
Krauthammer and Kristol need to go to Iraq.
That was supposed to be a cakewalk, accoring to these neoCONs. 4,500 deaths later...
Actually, Kraut and Rove need to just STFU and STFD like good little RINO boys.
I don’t think Krauthammer is a traitorous Beltway RINO.
Screw Allahpundit
Krauthammer (taking a break from defending Obama):
"Trust me. You can't trust women. Any woman."
Karl approves of this message...
This is the first time that I’ve had a serious disagreement with Krauthammer. He is extremely off base with that comment. How can he walk it back before the election? She will win. What then?
EyeGuy To Krauthammer:
Prove that the Ivy League, east coast background and connections, you so often seem to feel are so essential, are worth more than solid REAL world work and personal experience.
We agree on that but sad to say that the candidates you advertise, Palin and Bachmann, have been in the hip pocket of the neocons on both the Iraq and Afghan issues.
Same trick Tokyo Rove is playing. Go do this, this and this, to get your candidate who is flawed because of this, this and this elected, then you’ll prove me wrong/right. Meanwhile, he’s careful to blare the supposed bad news about O’Donnell from as big and frequent a megaphone as he can find.
It is a big war against the Republican Establishment. Fortunately, Palin’s already had experience with this.
