The GOP leadership/establishment class has shown nothing but utter contempt for both Palin and Cruz since each first appeared on the national scene.
With Palin, it even goes back to the wardrobe flap in 2008, which was a false story and false meme that the GOP election managers could have cleared up in heartbeat, but they wouldn’t. They deliberately let it just hang out there for weeks, letting the media get away with endless smears and falsehoods to tear Palin down.
They didn’t utter a word of outrage or support for Palin when her church was torched a few weeks later, nor defend her when her family and children were attacked, nor when Dem political operatives tried and were succeeding in financially bankrupting her and her family with bogus lawsuits, nor when the media was laying total blame on her for the mass-murders in Tucson, nor when Hollywood spent millions to make a movie to smear her, etc., etc.
God, how I’ve grown to lose all the faith, respect and confidence I used to have in the GOP!
And they wonder why donations to the national GOP are down.I just received a donation request. I may use the postage paid envelope to mail some junk mail.
I volunteered at the county headquarters in Iowa for years, wouldn’t do that now.
True, I agree.GOP establichment shown nothing gut contempt for Palin and Cruz We need third party
