The point that you seem unable to understand is that the second part of your post 124 was a ridiculous comparison.

Your holding on to Pence as winning a straw vote is silly too, straw votes mean nothing or Ron Paul would be President forever. Your claim that DeMint has equal or even better support than Palin is absurd also, DeMint is popular, but not in the Presidential standings.

The weird strategy is your obsession with that throwaway statement of Palin’s, what are you going to do, sue her in court, because you claim that now she cannot run for President because you prefer one of the guys, and that your lawyer can prove that they fulfill Governor Palin’s internal vision of who can fulfill her goals for President?

The point was that your comment was very ironic. Let it go now.

I merely pointed out that it's absurd to suggest that Pence or DeMint can't win and that based on her own comments, she would not run if they did. Given her negatives, they would have a better chance to win the key independent and moderate democrat vote. To clarify, I also said that DeMint had equal or better support within the TEA Party and among Conservatives. You haven't been paying attention if you think otherwise. The straw poll that Pence won mattered in as much as it was a social conservative vote and a good indication that he can appeal to them, key constituents to Palin's base.

What is weird is your insistence that Conservatives shouldn't hold their candidates to their word, or that honesty and integrity don't matter to Conservatives. Good luck with that strategy...
