BINGO! We have a winner.
The one thing that really gets me and makes me think that Obama and Kerry might just be right about the American people being "stupid" is reading comments such as the ones on this thread.
The elites are playing three dimensional chess and you all are playing Tic-Tac-Toe. The elites are reading Sun Tzu and you all are reading the manual to World of Warcraft. If you want to truly win back this country you are all going to have to quit thinking, acting and (most importantly) reacting like a bunch of rank amateurs. The world you have ventured into is the world of hard core politics-the forces arrayed against us are strong, well seasoned and are not willing to give up power without a fight.
In case you have all been too busy looking at bright, shiny objects to notice the sell job is already ramping up to push Romney to the forefront for 2012-he is, after all, a member of the elitists club and the most palatable to them. Already it appears they are doing an excellent job judging by some of the comments here.
They would LOVE having him as the 2012 Republican nominee-he would be a win-win for them. The majority of conservatives/"teabaggers" would not support him because he is a RINO of the worst kind-a Massachusetts one with his own Romneycare albatross hanging around his neck. If he gets the nomination you will end up with Obama or Hillary as President. If Obama is gone or if he survives to run in 2012 and loses to the likes of Romney the bicoastal elites will be happy because they will have their best option of continuing "business as normal".
In order to make him the "obvious choice" they have to destroy everyone in the way and the one they fear the most IS Sarah Palin. Why do they fear her? For the same reasons they feared Ronald Reagan-they know that it is "game over" for them. Sarah has already shown that she has no problems with kicking the entrenched elites of both parties to the curb, shining a spotlight on the cockroaches in the woodwork and cleaning up government-she did it in Alaska. The greatest fear of the bicoastal elites is that she wins and rides in on another tsunami like we saw Tuesday. If that happened the elites know that they can kiss all their policies and agendas they have worked so long and hard to put into place over the last 70 years goodbye. THAT is why they need to destroy her.
BTW-in case you all have not noticed they are saying the EXACT SAME things about her in the EXACT SAME arrogant, condescending, snarky way that they said about Ronald Reagan during the 1960's and 70's.
You call a winning comment and then proceed to outdo it with a brilliant essay, LOL! You have articulated my thinking in a way I never could. Thanks.
Here’s hoping everybody reads that post.
