Now I’m off the phone and it looks like I missed something.

We can play poll tag if you want.

52% unfavorable, 40% favorable

I just don’t understand why people are so upset. How about just ignoring Sarah Palin, since she’s not even a candidate at this point.

[DJ MacWoW]

She was an excellent governor. It was the lefty’s with the lawsuits. How can one govern when fighting frivolous lawsuits? The left drove her out and you fall for it. They hate her. Why do you think that is?

[DJ MacWoW]

And, btw, you don’t have any idea the number of private messages I’ve received in support.

So trolls love you. That's news?

[mickey finn]

A big thank you for maintaining a hugh and series ping list!

And more importantly for making the PDS’ers heads explode. I hope they do not blast their computers with a shotgun because of you.

I don’t trust his Conservative principles,

You think Mitt has conservative principles? And with a "C" no less.

I think she is better as an outsider, providing support to candidates, and speaking her mind on Conservative issues.

IOW, Sarah you are more needed helping other candidates than leading our courtry. Speaking 'her mind'? In case your haven't noticed, Sarah isn't about herself - she's all about our country. I'd say you are clueless about conservatism - and it shows. You get a 'D' for impersonating a conservative, IMO

Taking your Comments about Mitt and Sarah together, I believe your made your point - vague but VERY OBVIOUS. It's old, that's why it's easy to see through. Sarah's a leader - she doesn't babysit candidates, she's shown them the way - they can know fly on their own - she's that good of a leader.

I am looking for a NEW fresh Conservative face for 2012, someone with experience and Cons principles.

That's too precious, I'll let it stand on it's own. But I'll add your own words here I fully support Sarah and would campaign for her if she decided to run

LOL!!!! Do you NOW see why Barry needs a teleprompter?? TO KEEP ON TRACK. You couldn't keep on track after a few paragraphs. Go back to your training center - and don't collect pay for today, I'm the one that deserves it - not you!

Results for this Gallup poll are based on telephone interviews conducted Nov. 4-7, 2010, with a random sample of 1,021 adults, aged 18 and older, living in the continental U.S., selected using random-digit-dial sampling.

[trisham]

Imho, they have an agenda, which involves the support of another candidate whose aspirations are threatened by Sarah’s growing popularity.

[wtc911]

They prefer not to be barraged with the name calling like that which you just displayed. So, yeah, you have effectively turned long time freepers off...I know that you're proud of that.

You haven't changed their minds though. That's the funny thing about the name-calling, it makes folks think that you guys are not particularly serious adults.

[DJ MacWoW]

and they lost bad

Angle did not "lose bad". You are uninformed. And you haven't heard about the vote fraud and intimidation? You know nothing.

[onyx]

LOL. Oh, I can already tell you’re truly going to be a ‘grate’ addition to the membership! You betcha! Making PDSer heads explode...lol. (We like).

[onyx]

Oh boo-hoo, pot kettle. You’re a Palin troll and there’s no way around it for you. FReepers are not cowards so I know you’re telling stories (again) and BTW, calling Sarah Palin a “quitter” is “name-calling.” DUH.

[trisham]

Welcome, mickey finn! :)

[trisham]

I’m thinking that you may have had imaginary friends as a child.

[JohnnyM]

Reid beat her by almost 6 points in a race where she was ahead in most of the polls up to the election. She lost bad.

Stop whining like dems when Gore lost and accept reality.

[JohnnyM]

im not sure what your point is

[darkwing104]

Ok, I’m shocked at how sensitive Conservatives are on here.

Because we like kitties? Do you have a problem with kitties?...You hurt their feelings...Zot!!!!

Please let me know if you want ON or OFF my Viking Kitty/ZOT ping list!. . . don't be shy.

[trisham]

LOL! Zombie cat is right!

[onyx]

LOL.
