You’ll have to go back 2 years, but you’ll find I was an early supporter of Fred Thompson, prior to him getting into the race, all the way up until after he dropped out. It was a frustrating experience, to say the least. I was very vocal in my support. My view that Romney would have beaten 0bama is based on my observations, not my emotions or preferences. Romney is a finance guy and Was unflappable in the debates. That would have inspired a lot more confidence post-collapse than the frenetic and unstable McCain, who boasted about he didn’t know anything about economics. 0bama won by default. It’s hard not to draw this conclusion when you analyze it dispassionately. Though I understand that is outside the scope of Palin supporters.
Still, the scope of a Palin supporter reaches farther than that of a Gingrich supporter.
