Good grief! This kind of thing happens every election cycle around here and is applied to all candidates and their supporters. You need to develop thicker skin if you’re going to stick around here.

I realize that some are a tad over the top but so what? If it gets too out of hand, they are shown the door.

Also, if Palin supporters bug you, don’t got to the threads about her. Simple, huh? You won’t see me on Ron Paul threads.

By the same token, you could be called an obnoxious Perry supporter. But that’s okay.

Yes, yes. Now considering Palin *ISN'T* a candidate... it's a bit creepy.

As to a messiah complex, I could make a better case that anti-Palin folks suffer from that. Their fear of the Great and Powerful Obama is so strong they are willing to "settle" for a lesser candidate because they are so afraid of losing. They lack the faith to back the best candidate because the left lives in their head and has them scared sh!tless. It's sad, really.

You know, that does cover some of the anti-Palin folks. How about the other ones? Certainly thinking conservatives cannot have a problem with 90% of her strong conservative positions. Her written and spoken words show a true conservative...so why all the disdain?

I believe most other conservatives not covered by your post strongly dislike her because: (1) jealousy...She is a strong woman who appears to have it all (looks, strong character, fine family, money, physical strength) (2) Some just don't like woman who are leaders and (3), she is an outspoken Evangelical Christian.
