Blah, blah, blah...
Four more years of 0bama and we may not have a republic but go ahead and sit out the election. If he wins do not whine when even more of our freedoms are taken away.

Palin is a lovely person. She’s not a perfect conservative, nobody is. But she is pretty good.
If the race comes down to Palin vs Romney, I’d be for Palin. But she has to run first and there is a very strong case for Perry and some of the other candidates.

You each have a highly principled opinion, but please consider that there is no need to wait for a top surgeon before you stop the bleeding. Our country deserves some first aid from the current trauma.
We cannot allow Obama another term. No matter what. Are you willing to put the country at risk to stand by your principles?
We all would love to have a true conservative as president. But we have to fight the enemy first!

With logon info sadly long forgotten, I've been here since early 98.
But even back in the low '00s this place could turn into a barroom brawl at the drop of an innuendo or an ugly hat.
There's been a lotta ZOT 'tween then and now .. it's my impression that things have calmed considerably the last couple/few years.
But I'm gettin' older and tending toward sometimer's, so who knows !
lol
ps: for those waxing nostalgic, there's still Religion and the Smokey Backroom !

Actually I have nothing against Palin, but the detachment from reality of their supporters, who keep believing and insisting she will run, despite all the EVIDENCE that she wont is getting more than a bit tiresome.
Why don't you let us play? I really don't understand what you are doing on this thread if we are boring you so much. Let us dream and just go play with the "serious" one. We WANT to believe. So what is wrong with that?

There is an error in your calculations. You have failed to consider the Palin quotient.

“Well that opportunity is ours for the taking in 2012 if we stick with Tea Party conservatism.”
I’m for freeper conservatism. Yes, we do have to deal with abortion, gay marriage and Iran. Not everything is about cutting the govt to the bone.

You have failed to consider the Palin quotient. I think I will need to calculate the square root of the standard output of dilithium to derive that factor.
But I do stand corrected.

“We WANT to believe. So what is wrong with that?”
Those who believed in Fred Thompson split the conservative votes, didn’t let any Republican to get traction and we ended up with McCain, and as a result of that, Obama.
Those who are “waiting for Sarah” are trying to stop Perry’s momentum and may end up giving us Romney, who will be beaten by Obama. Your game is NOT harmless, it may give Obama 4 more years.
It’s time to grow up, face reality and work on defeating Obama, not sitting in your fantasy dream world, while Obama destroys the country.

I’ll see your three questions and anti-raise you two questions.
1 question to you:
1. Has Sarah Palin said she is running?
If you cannot answer YES to any of the above questions — well, actually, just one question ... then you cannot say Sarah is running.
Also, regarding the Reagan and Nixon examples ... they may be invalid. May I presume the filing deadlines might be different, 42 and 32 years later, respectively?
Regardless, what’s the point of worrying about it, yea or nay, until the deadline passes or Palin provides a definitive answer.
All I know is Palin would be better than Obama. And so would Perry, Romney, Bachman, Cain, Gingrich, Santorum and every declared GOP candidate — with the exception of Paul.

I'd be interested to hear how things would have turned out otherwise. The only other major candidates to vote for at the time would have been McCain, Giuliani, Romney and Huckabee. If not for Fred Thompson "splitting the vote", who is the conservative in that race that we could have rallied around to beat Obama?

Its time to grow up
You know, people like you who treat Palin's people that way are just proving one thing: you are a rino. We have 14 months before the elections - what I see right now in the field is ONLY rinos. You were of course an adult when you though McCain was good enough against obama. Yeah...I thought so. Well, at that point of the race, I don't see why ANYONE should make a choice. Why do we have to make a choice 14 months before the elections? Sarah said she will declare in September. I believe her. If she does not, then we will see. But for now, I will not push anyone else. I don't like anyone else. So I wait. We have plenty time. And please don't compare Sarah to Thompson...Sarah is studying. She is getting ready. Sun Tzu.
Thompson had no clue what he was doing. He probably thought he could "play" the role. Sarah is much more serious than that. She is learning, watching what's going on and when she finally declare she will have all the cards in hand.

No problem at all as there was no error. Nit pickers always figure out how to talk from the bottom side with no big picture thoughts. The dumb bastards especially think that way. I hope you’re not one of them.

Correct. We will not know Palin is running until she tells us. On the other hand, we will not know that she is NOT running until one of those original questions switch to a YES answer.
Agree with you that all the candidates (aside from Paul) would be better than Obama. Actually I want to say that Paul would be better than Obama too but I can't get around his position that all the countries in the Middle East should be allowed to develop and possess nuclear weapons and implying that Bin Laden had valid reasons for 9/11 attacks (because U.S. was occupying Middle East nations).
