Just start saying, “I haven’t yet figured out if he/she is a da**ed RINO or not.”
It is the illusion of choice.
Totally agree.
We have rhe power to change things!
Ya know, if Jimmuh Carter were to utter the words, “Birth Certificate”, there would be a gaggle of FReepers spamming every thread DEMANDING that we all drop everything and make him President..
Okay - I’m exaggerating, but only a little, to make the point that our enemies would probably be pretty hard-pressed to get any kind of accurate ‘read’ on our thoughts and intentions by reading what some of us post....
;)
Does that mean we have permission to hammer the “Palin is unelectable” trolls?
Grassroot conservatives have one chance, and that is to shape and win the Republican primary against any RINO! This is now the time to come together to muscle in our guy/gal. If we can not win on our own side of the fence in the Republican primary, then we shape nothing after that, as everything moves along into the general election to attract the Independents.
If we keep the Independents, UBAMA is left with only the marxists, and the illegals.
As far as voiced policies are concerned, Sarah Palin is probably as good as it’s going to get, McCain dalliance or no. I’m getting nervous at the number of her enemies that are not on the left, however. I wish she’d declare a candidacy and make some actual campaign promises, which should either clear up most misunderstandings with her non-left enemies or else show her to be an unviable candidate.
I expect the democrat turnout for the upcoming primaries will be the lowest on record and the republican turnout will be the largest thanks in a great part to democrats that switch just to vote for the worst candidate we have.

Hey, if you can get her even interested in running we can talk.
Hells bells, if you can get her interested in even forming an exploratory committee or anything that remotely resembles a future campaign effort, I’ll talk.
It’s not our fault she isn’t running.
There’s a discovery process because we don’t have all the information up front. Then there’s the arguments over whether that info is true or not. Then the nitpicking since nobody is perfect. If they are a perfect candidate then the “too extreme” arguments get dusted off. Of course there is always the “only a congressman so not viable” argument.
I think we have the right to tell the Palin trolls to wait till Palin has declared a 2012 candidacy and has made some substantial campaign promises specific to that candidacy. If after doing so she is still scorned by many major conservative pundits, then the search will have to go further. She’s a good enough sport that she would help most reasonably conservative candidates.
Nice touch of drama.
Two years of vanity lectures like this should be fun.
But what if what the Rats think is the worst Republican, really is the best one?
LOL! I love your post. If you’re exaggerating, it’s not by much. If any Dim campaign strategists are doing opposition research by lurking on FR, they will probably conclude that it’s a lot of fringe truther-type conspiracists. Then they’ll go looking elsewhere. Hmmm... maybe it’s not such a bad thing afterall. Still drives me crazy though.
Permission granted. Go to town! ;-)
I don’t know any major conservative pundits that have more credibility than she does.
What is the point of all this, "I'll vote for him if he gets nominated stuff"? Are people who harp on this trying to prove some kind of party loyalty?
Stand your ground, demand that we be heard.
There is no reason to negotiate terms of surrender in the middle of the fight!
Um... I that’s “close to the vest” not “chest.”
