Bothers me that we have basically two camps of people, instead of one, who supposedly are on the right side of all issues in their feelings of a Sarah Palin candidacy.

One camp agrees and likes her and feel that of the all the potential candidates out there, she speaks for us, and that she should run for the presidency. That’s the camp I am in.

The other camp may agree with what she says, but find her disaggreable as a candidate. They criticize anything and everything they can about her and find her a weak presidential candidate. Charles Krauthammer is in that camp along with several others that have commented on the thread that is a few print feet below this one.

There is a third group, and I'd be willing to bet they are the largest.

Please don’t make this a Sarah Palin thread. I don’t see anything in Jim’s post #1 that says “You must be on the Palin bandwagon to be a Freeper”.

...including Newt Gingrich, who imagines he has a shot at the nom. As if...

My position on Sarah Palin is the same as any other candidate. I will look at each candidate's pluses and minuses. If she's the most conservative on the field, she gets my vote. If not... she won't.

But whatever happens in the primary... if she's the one left standing to go to battle against 0bama in November 2012, I'm behind her all the way.

It’s called political discourse. It needs to happen and if it doesn’t, we have mob rule. (or a democracy, if you will)

You may find that Republicans like Krauthammer agree with you a good deal less that you think if you sat down and had dinner with them. They are essentially progressives. I like Sarah Palin. I am concerned about her ability to do battle with one nearly as slick as Clinton on a national stage. However, I'm completely unwilling to compromise on the issues to field a "slicker" candidate. Compromising on the issues for decades is what has brought conservatism in America - if not the nation itself - to death's door.
