Stick With Sarah

I agree. It is very important to fight back; probably Bush’s greatest fault was his failure to fight back when attacked. People would have been behind him, but he never gave them the chance, and the left got to somehow rewrite not only the past but the present with their 24/7 lies. Their easy success emboldened them, and what they are doing now is the result of the fact that they have gotten away with it for years.

(I hope McCain isn’t even thinking of getting rid of her, btw.)

Here in New Zealand, the left are howling with rage over Sarah. You see, they had already selected their boy Obama as your next President: you guys just hadn’t ratified it with your votes yet.

Good to hear the report from NZ! The left seems to be the same throughout the world.

But see, Teddy Kennedy never got a DUI so Palin is fair game. And BO only said he got drunk at that same age - never caught either for that or pot smoking or cocaine - all admitted. Todd Palin is more qualified for POTUS than BO is.

These ‘Stick with Sarah’ stories are stupid. The one, overiding element of John McCain’s character is loyalty.

If anything happens to Palin, he will go down with the ship, and at her side.

Which is why the stories aren't being written for McCain. They're for the rest of us.

I have been reading the Team McCain strategy as ambush, give ground and ambush again. I’m looking forward to the next few days. I hope that I’m right.

[SMARTY]

I agree.

Democrats are shooting themselves in the head.

They really ought to aim for something vital.

Precisely. It is the rank-and-file who abandon the ship. Conservatives shoot their wounded, Liberals promote theirs.

Remember, the Mark Foley fiasco WORKED for the Dems - just one cycle ago.

The Establishment press needs to be vetted for lynching a 17 yr old girl. If they hate her, then I love her. Anybody who doesn’t realize they are shilling for the DNC hasn’t been paying attention.

Pray for W, the Parins and Our Troops

I do not think that John McCain has any intentions of dropping Sarah Palin. Now as McCain keeps Palin as he always intended some irrelevant people will tell us that it was their pressure that forced McCain to keep her. This is the same when McCain never intended to choose a pro-abortion VP but some irrelevant people on our side created a story that he was going to choose a pro-abortion VP and then when McCain chose a pro-life one as he always intended the irrelevant people told us that it was their pressure that forced McCain to do so.

On Hannity and Colmes last night, Dick Morris was actually snarling at Skeletor in what seemed to be genuine rage and disgust.

Morris said that American women love McCain for choosing Palin, and they will love him even more for sticking with her despite the (entirely false) impression the media are trying to create that she’s a disaster.

This is all theater. McCain and Morris are using the complete insanity of the leftists to their advantage.

Of course McCain won’t dump Palin. But if people think he might, and then he very firmly says “No way,” it’ll be a huge PR victory.

In his prime, President Bush was a judo master, using his enemies’ forward motion against them.

McCain is a master of The Force. He can make his enemies actually destroy themselves.

Who knew?

Um, W has the lowest approval rating in history.

The Libs will not wilt from the heat of this battle; Conservatives have a long history of doing so.
