Whatever entertainment value I provide to you, believe me when I say that it pales in comparison to what you provide to me.

BWAHAHAHAHAHA

Struck a nerve, did I? Oh, DeckHand, you're just the gift that keeps on giving. And since we're back on the subject, explain to me how it would have benefited Sarah Palin and the people of Alaska for her to have finished out her term. In the process, convince me that you understand her tactical situation as it existed at the time. Still waiting.

Nobody’s ever gonna confuse me with a blue-blood. Trust me on that. I did go to an elite university way back when and escaped with my values intact. Pure luck I guess. Plus, I studied technical stuff. It was back when the geeks carried sliderules on their belts, not iPhones. LOL.

If we can’t even win Texas then we are in serious trouble.

I’m glad that you find it so amusing that I’m not familiar with the term. This is the first time I’ve heard it.

What a hormonal simp. Don't worry, soon you'll be able to rent a functioning brain you can use when discussing serious matters with grown-ups.

Thank you, Captain Obvious. I never indicated otherwise.

Any idiot parroting that tired old bipartisanship saw has zero credibility.

Republicans lost big by following that advice. They just won big because they are not democrats. Somehow I think that implies that enabling the democrat agenda might not please most americans.

Please, be sure you don’t miss a one of my wonderful posts. You might have missed a couple, so you’d better read the entire thread. Don’t bother to read the article we are supposed to be discussing, though, heaven forbid.

Al,
I would actually like to hear what Rollins’ mentor Lyn Nofziger would have said about Sarah Palin. Nofziger was brought into the campaign in 1980 by Nofziger, I believe, after Reagan had the nomination and Rollins’ role was to manage the convention in Detroit.

His next big assignment was to manage Regan’s reelection in 1984, perhaps the easiest victory lap in U.S. history. He stiffed Paul Laxalt (whom Rollins himself called a “true friend”) in 1988 in favor of Jack Kemp. He next surfaced in 1992 to manage the whack job Perot’s campaign for about 15 minutes. Then he signed on with Huckaphony.

Nofziger is one of those people llike Noonan, who attached himself to Reagan AFTER the Gipper had it already won, and now claims intimate knowledge of Reagan. I trust people like Mark Levin more that Rollins and wouldn’t mind hearing what Ed Meese has to say.

People who actually knew, supported and worked with Reagan BEFORE he was President have been very circumspect in using Reagan as a cudgel to beat other conservatives with, especially Palin.

I didn’t particularly respect Rollins before this attack. Now....

I know you meant Rollins, not Nofziger, BC but just for the record I'm mentioning this. Nofziger was a TRUE Reaganite like Mark Levin, Craig Shirley and others.

Ed Rollins -- like Pat Buchanan, Haley Barbour and others -- started their careers with Richard Nixon. After the 1984 no-brainer, he "stepped up" to Ross Perot. LOL.

If Sarah announces, get ready for a LOT of conservative leaders to begin making their opinions known about what they think about Sarah Palin as president.

Lets see how quickly current conservative leaders jump on her bandwagon.

Let’s see if they go (lady) gaga over her announcement.
