I respect Sarah Palin’s “Anybody But Obama” policy. I understand the reasoning behind it.

For myself, I considered whether I would vote for Romney if the alternative candidate were Satan. On that day I think would not be voting, I would be changing my citizenship to “Atlantean”.

Upon further reflection, I thought that if I were the person running for office and being interviewed on TV, I couldn’t possibily give that sort of an opinion. It would immediately tune out all the voters who might still be under some impression that Romney is an R leaning towards conservative when he’s been R leaning to the Zero except for when gusts of political wind blows him every which way.

If I’m right, I think that SP as an undoubtedly strong individual sensed Romney’s weakness a long time ago. And in my mind when she said “Yeah” she probably gritted her teeth and said to herself for the umpteenth time that she hated the bulls*** side of politics.

And on to the next ten thousand questions challenges word traps and just plain freaks that pester her every day, until she hits a tripwire there’s nothing newsworthy.

Yeah, I'd vote for Romney over Obama but then I'd vote for a turd in a suit over Obama [...]

You seem to be repeating yourself...

NO MORE RINOs!

You keep saying that. So who besides Palin is not a RINO?

I myself have participated in a number of discussions with SP opponents where the tome and discourse were totally normal with no hate, accusations and so on. Happens all the time. Don’t equate PDS to disagreement as they are very different things.

Maybe I hang out on the wrong threads, but my experience has been that any disagreement with Palin of any sort, even policywise, is usually jumped on by one or two Palin-supporter "thread monitors" who then ping the rest.

I can't imagine support for Romney Presidency being allowed here given how strongly those running the site feel about Willard.

Have you asked them how they feel about Ozero?

So Sarah says she will not vote for Romney over Obama?

Alright. I guess we will leave it there.

That is the biggest hogwash. Please don’t lie like that. Someone who has a disagreement with Palin is not accused of “trolling”. It is common knowledge to anyone visiting Palin threads that there is a small group of members who visit pretty much every Palin thread to poop in those threads habitually. Most folks who visit Palin threads know who these individuals are.

Yeah, that NEVER happens on a Perry, Bachmann, etc. thread.

Lindy, everyone here is welcome to compare my posting history to yours and decide for themselves who the ‘loon’ is. In fact, I welcome it.

You are a PDS addled troll that shows up on Palin threads, stirs crap and sidetracks discussion. I don’t let you get away with it and that upsets you to no end.

Stop acting like a breath-holding child and grow the hell up.

She didn’t express any support for Romney. That was the whole point of the update — she would have said yes to ANY of the republicans, she wasn’t singling out Romney, and she made that very clear — she would support ABO — Anybody But Obama.

If you want to simplify it like that you are being dishonest. I have nothing else to say to you.

Well, let's see. I can believe you, or I can believe what I've actually seen take place repeatedly.

Guess which one I'm going to go with?

I think you were going to show me you were right. I suppose you have nothing to show.You did find the time to defend the upstart who waited for years to post here.

Figures. You must have missed my defense of Palin a couple times upthread.

Usual and proves how insincere you truly are. Just a pretender.

Wrong. Just watch what happens if any even tries to say ANYTHING less than positive about Palin. The attack dogs come out in force.

I read the article again and nowhere did I see where Sarah Palin stated "Wouldn’t most endorse a rock if it were the alternative to Obama?".

Could you please direct me to that quote?

It's not a Palin quote. It's what Ingtar posted to you in post #131 -

Sez Ingtar - "Perhaps, like many, the two are not that terribly different. Both say one thing while campaigning and do other things when elected. Also, the context here is important. Even in your excerpt, it is the final nominee they were asking about. Wouldn’t most endorse a rock if it were the alternative to Obama?"

But you already knew that, of course; unless you've been smoking crack cocaine. Tsowellfan, are you a crackhead?
