Is there an emerging Palin-Steele alliance?

First, I agree with your gay/straight assertion. Nope....no more Gays to head the GOP. The marriage issue is just too damn sensitive.

But more, I think the GOP knows, for God’s sake and it ain’t rocket science, that Palin INFLUENCES elections.

Yes she does and I guess they had to get over it.

The Republicans stand to be in on a rout in these upcoming years. Let us get the most out of it and let Palin be trained and ready to pick up the mantle in 2012.

It’s my story and I’m sticking to it.

That steele guy is annoying

[barbarianbabs]

Who?????????????

[Diogenesis]

Perhaps. Few.

Many spoilers like Ron Paul and backstabber Mitt Romney.

[vortigern]

Feel like naming a couple?

Since I don’t think they should even be able to vote, what makes you think I’d want one as CIC.

There are much better candidates.

Oh yeah! There's Sarah Palin, and there's Michele Bachmann, and then there's ... uh ... well, that's about it.

???

whoa

“You people?” ** snicker **

You obviously have confused me with someone else; someone who cares about your ... baggage.

I live and vote in Florida. Charlie Crist would have been the “Republican Candidate” for Senate here, but for the fact that he hit the panic button after reading a few polls. I will not insult you by implying that you would have been just fine with Mr Crist.

And, frankly, if the GOP “crashes and burns” to use your language, I’m not sure that I really care. They sold out a long time ago, and at the moment they are simply the least bad of two abysmally horrid options.

Oh, and I will respond to your “stuff it” by echoing your wish - go stuff yourself. Please do not post directly to me again.

[pissant]

That’s what a feminist would say, anyhow.

“No, she doesn’t. There are much better candidates.”

I’ll bite, name three!

[pissant]

DeMint and Pence and Hunter and Rounds and Bachmann and King and Arpaio and Inhofe and Bolton and Cain and Franks and North and Barbour, for starters.

[stockpirate]

Well I must admit those are all pretty good picks. A couple I haven’t heard too much about.

By North do you mean Ollie North?

What's interesting here is that when we fire Pelosi, Reid and their running dog lackeys and take back the Congress, Chairman Steele will have been associated quite closely with one of the great turnarounds in politics in American history.

DNC Chairman Kaine will be on the other end of the stick ~ one of history's big losers.

[stockpirate]

BTW- I’d like to see Bachmann and Palin on the same ticket.

Sarah Palin is simply showing that she is a loyal Republican and not a Third Party wacko that can be shuffled off to the sidelines. By propping up Michael Steele, long considered by conservatives - this Freeper included -to be ineffective Palin stakes a claim to power within the GOP. She can continue to prop up Steele during the party election in January or try to take the RNC Chairmanship, herself, which is possible but in my opinion, not probable. If Palin supports Michael Steele for re-election, he'll owe her. If she doesn't but refuses to oppose him, he'll still owe her. Either way, Sarah Palin is showing her intention of being more than a bystander in Republican party politics.

She knows the conservatives have to take the party back and if they do, her nomination for president in 2012 will be relatively assured. By supporting Steele, Palin is cementing her position as kingmaker and a powerful influence in GOP infra-party politics. Sarah Palin will not be maneuvered as she was in 2008. Those days are long gone for the former Governor of Alaska. She is a powerhouse and she will go far, despite the mewling of some conservatives who refuse to accept political reality and still expect a Deus ex machina to produce a combination of Barry Goldwater and Ronald Reagan as a viable Republican presidential candidate for 2012. Get real.

Crist decided that he'd been given a message by the Obama victory in the just then recent past so he sought to dissociate from the Republican party.

Crist typifies the type of Republican who's ready to turn his back on other Republicans over a single word in a Leftwing periodical.

I don't swing that way. You shouldn't either.

[Jack Black]

How did Bohner fail? He wasn't speaker of the house or even whip when the GOP lost them. That was Hastert and Delay, who are both already gone. Bohner came in to lead a GOP minority that was 50 votes shy of majority. Given this I think he's done a superb job of keeping Nancy and the Donks off base, slowing down their rush to socialism, and basically doing what a minority leader does.

Now the House is going to swing wildly to the GOP. I'd say he deserves some of the credit. For the life of me I can't uderstand the "Failed" comment.

The same is even MORE TRUE of McConnell. He had a fillibuster-proof Dem majority opposed to us. Despite this he managed to flumox Harry Reid over and over again, delyaing votes, finding the one Dem traitor needed to scuttle Harry's dingy plans. A weak hand very well played, in my opinion.

Boehner also made a very good speech a while back: Boehner Contra Obamacare, March 2010

[Jack Black]

So can we expect McCain and Steele in a Palin cabinet?

[onyx]

Right you are, Diogenesis, Sarah is running, and I must ask, "is everyone stupid, including the idiots at the Daily Caller?"

What is "going on here" is simple: Sarah is helping the RNC because......

KARL ROVE & HIS GROUP: AMERICAN CROSSROADS

hope to empower and influence election 2012 by backing and selecting their own candidates in direct competition with the RNC! (DUH)
