The Ames Iowa Straw Poll is a FUND RAISER FOR THE IOWA GOP!
Had attendees voted for Sarah Palin with tickets paid for by other declared candidates, that would have been mighty dishonest of them!
GOVERNOR SARAH PALIN didn’t spend one dime buying tickets, because she wasn’t there as a candidate!
Her name was not on the ballot and she wasn’t promoting a *write-in* campaign!
Sheeesh. What a red herring.
Sorry, this doesn't cut it. People were not necessarily taking free tickets from those they voted for and besides you could get a free ticket from at least one group because they called my home and asked me if I wanted a free ticket.
Besides, wouldn't you think the Palin supporters should have been willing to pay for their own ticket to support Palin?
What I'm telling you is that I don't think there is the kind of support for Palin many believe there is. Polling is not kind to Palin.
It seems any herring will do with some people. I’ve watched their points be refuted over and over yet they continue to use them.
