He was clearly talking about McCain. Golly.

I fear there is a cult of Palin forming. There seems to be a sort of religious fervor for her...the same sort of reaction that Democrats had over Obama...very disturbing.

You are absolutely correct!!! Clearly Rush was speaking of McCain, not Palin, and just as clearly Rush has been unapologetically enthusiastic about Palin.

I like Sarah Palin very much, but I will not cease asking questions of our candidates simply because I like them. They must prove their worth and their mettle before I will bash everyone who asks a question or dares question their knowledge and ability. I leave that to the irrational, emotionally driven Left.

No candidate owns my vote, they must earn it. Sarah has plenty of time to do so and she begins with a head start, but questions like these must be answered, not beaten down. I had enough of that out of the Obama Campaign. If the Palinistas begin that, it will be a huge danger sign and I will avoid her like the plague.

Conservatism is Reason, not emotion. Conservative principles are arrived at through careful consideration, not knee-jerk reactions and heated emotionally charged language.
