DeMint: Give Palin Major Speaking Role at Convention
NewsMax ^ | July 20, 2012 | By NewsMax Wires

Posted on 07/21/2012 3:57:00 PM PDT by Jim Robinson

Powerful conservative Sen. Jim DeMint, R-S.C., thinks former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin deserves a prime speaking position at the Republican convention.

"I'd love to see Sarah Palin have a big slot — as far as speaking — because there's no one still in America that excites the base of conservatives and even libertarians as she does,” he told Fox News Thursday.

“She can draw a crowd more than any other Republican, and I think has more influence in primaries than any other endorsement right now, so I think she'd be good."

Demint lost me as an special authority when I saw him on an interview say that SS has no solvency problems and is fully funded, which is exactly what ALL the libs on MSNBC claim.

SS is running huge deficits now and the worthless SS IOUs are being swapped for new US treasure debt, much of which is being bought with made up money from the federal reserve. But he joined them in saying it solvent, I saw it myself.

At some point the voters need to be told the truth, still waiting for someone with guts.

Incidentally, I picked up “The Real Romney” at the library. According to some of his aides, Willard is so, quote, “patrician” that he’s uncomfortable even being in an elevator with regular people.

I am very disappointed if you believed this. It is a hit piece pure and simple.

Let Gov. Palin give the speech nominating Gov. Romney.

I AGREE!

On another note I was devastated to see Palin's last book at the Dollar Store today.

Books at the Dollar Store offer those who can't afford full price to buy it. It's the American way. Perhaps she needs to write a new book. . . .controversial of course.

and the last sentence of the referenced NewsMax article

Palin hasn't been invited to the convention yet, but the schedule still hasn’t solidified, so that oversight may not mean very much at this point.

This entire thread has been used only as a Romney bashing thread.What is happening here?

If I can get $15 book at the Dollar Store for a $1, I'll buy it plus 14 additional ones to give to my friends. Genius marketing plan for Sarah Palin.

Because their true agenda comes out. Mitt can say things I agree from time to time; like Barry must go but will NEVER really agree with him. I know better to agree w/a PROVEN LIAR on what he plans to do. I see what he already did and his lies trying to wiggle out of taking accountability for it. And how he LIES whenever he damn well pleases, like when he breaths.

If one can’t admit to the obvious, no matter how it grates them, then I have nothing to say or plenty to say to them. ;) Depending on what I chose to do/have time to do/or want to take time to do.

The fact that the GOP gave us this lump, they show they could give a flip about America/about winning. They expect we will do the caring about America while they dissed us for 4 years. Rove has made that obvious especially in 2010 and Romney, his contempt for anything good for America! Rotten behavior never changes with rewards, it only condones it’s behavior.

Dollar Store has really nice gift bags (in all sizes), wrapping paper, bows, and gift cards...all for $1. You can't beat the prices.

Mitt needs to get his book at the Dollar Store too. PERHAPS THEY CAN HAVE A ROMNEY/PALIN 2 for 1 sale. I'd get 30 books then.

“I can tell conservatives from my perspective is that, I’m not only comfortable with Romney, I’m excited about the possibility of him possibly being our nominee,” DeMint said

So, tell me: Were you one of the many who disrespected Sarah unmercifully when she endorsed John McCain for reelection? The RINO John McCain with a liberal, snobby witch for a wife and a slutty daughter? I stood by Sarah when she endorsed the sorry s.o.b. and gave her the benefit of the doubt even though I can’t stand him. So, where were you on that? Do you have the guts to man-up and tell us? If you hated her then, don’t pretend to love her now. If you thought her endorsing the old fart was perfectly fine, then you’re a big hypocrite. Because, I’m not in love with Mitt Romney, but John McCain wouldn’t make a decent scab on Mitt Romney’s a**. At least Romney has the guts to take on Obama and fight for the Presidency; something McCain didn’t have the ba**s to do.

And, btw, say what you want about me, but at least I’m smart enough to come up with a screen name.

Since you support the utterly weak Myth Romney,
can you explain why his wife has to defend him.
Has he no shame? he should drop out.

Why is 30%Romney, Author of DEATH PANELS,
never able to get about 30% (that is why he
is THE CHOSEN LOSER). Romney Should drop out.

Cowardly Romney sent people out to attack Gov. Palin
AND NEVER spoke up for her. Scum, is he not?
He should run with Obama, should he not?

Obama/Romney 2012 TRUTH in STATISM and DEATH CARE

Any conservatives —— THE WINNERS.
