Hatch can be counted on to suck up to those in power the majority of the time. The trick is to be in power, wield that power and you have a solid vote. If your power wanes, Hatch wanes with it.
As the prevailing winds blow, so goes Hatch. There are far worse RINOs. This one you just have to understand and use him to your advantage. The Maine twins are the opposite. When you have power, they will go against you more often than not to show their ‘independence”.
Personally I wish they’d primary him, but if they don’t, he CAN be dealt with as mentioned above. If Palin can handle the CBC, Hatch is a walk in the park. Orin likes committees and power.
Is it possible not to play the game?
Uri'el-2012, I do not know but, Thank God, God knows. I know Perry is bought, Sarah is a mystery to me yet.
As you know I put no faith in the world system. I would love more information or even misinformation about this. The Spirit can discern the truth.
btw, Chaffetz has already endorsed Mittens for 2012 on MTP recently.
Palin is making lemonade while hobbling Mittens.
It’s a pragmatic move in order to keep energy, time & resources for more important fights.
It also lets a few key people know, that a steamroller isn’t necessarily in your future as long as you don’t break fiscal faith.
Palin is trying to co-opt the GOP establishment, a-la Shadow/New Party, instead of the establishment co-opting her.
just muh 2 cent.
tD
Why is this a problem? It’s politics, not religion. If Palin won’t speak against Hatch, maybe it’s because she’s picking her battles carefully. Maybe she is planning to run for president and expects that Hatch will be a useful endorsement. Maybe she plans to win and expects Hatch to be in the Senate ready to deliver positive or negative payback, and she’d like to insure she has an ally in him.
This is where the KAD factor shows up, people. You think she’s the sweetest thing since George Bailey’s angel. She’s a solid conservative — with charisma beaming out of every pore — isn’t that enough? Does she have to come with magical powers to change the very process of politics?
Magical she is not. If this helps her govern later, let her be.
This actually renews my hopes she’ll run. No reason to cultivate the political landscape if she isn’t planning to be POTUS.
Like good generals are good at killing, good presidents are good at politicking. Never mind that in Heaven, killing and politicking are bad behaviors. When you need a general or a president you need the best you can find.
Spot on correct.
The only posters who are really getting bent by this are those who keep a candle burning 24-7 in front of the Palin shrine in their living room.
They're all politicians, folks. Sooner or later every one of them will take a position you disagree with. It's better for your mental health to accept and deal with it, rather than trying to twist the facts in an attempt to keep your idol stainless.
INDEED.
Took me a bit to figure all this out, I back Sarah, Hatch and Greta, not Malkin
The ‘BEST’ person for the job won’t win, that’s why we need to compromise and settle for a lesser qualified candidate who can actually beat obama.
I’d love to see Sarah win the general but too many hate her with a passion, they’d come out in droves just to vote against her.
It would take an act of God for her to win.

It was because of Palin I was actually ‘EXCITED’ to vote GOP last election.
Yeah, there are ways.
If true, Is the American system and culture responsible for this in any way?
“We are all Bildaburgers now!!!!!”
Just a subset of the Illuminati. Remember their objectives are to trim out the lesser quality individuals through disease, starvation, disasters, etc.
Masons, CFR, Trilateral, Rothschilds, Rockefellers are all subsets of the Illuminati. Get in the Illuminati and you’re in high cotton.
Chafettz has endorsed Romney and worked for Huntsman.
Would that make him more conservative than Hatch who is a RINO in my book??????
I think Greta throws a lot of baited questions at Sarah Palin nowadays.
What would those ways be be? Remember we are talking about Satan's kingdom AKA the world. I do not know but, Thank God, God knows
Its a good thing I got my membership card in the mail last week, then.
