Sorry, but I'm not gullible enough to accept any of this. Palin was set-up nicely by the Democrats and by a number of Quisling RINOs during the campaign. Understanding this, and understanding that she is now positioned to be a party leader -- especially if she campaigns for local Republicans in House and Senate races in 2010 -- the long knives are out.
Since no one has the courage to make these claims in broad daylight, it's fair to assume the people most likely to be making these statements are those with the most to lose from an ascendant Palin: either Romney or Huckabee supporters. Huckabee is unlikely because he didn't have access to the high-power consultants and beltway insiders in the same numbers or for nearly the same length of time as Romney. Furthermore, many of the "conservative" journos trashing Palin during the campaign were Romney supporters.
The rumor that Romney's people are behind these deprecations is out there. Those rumors are at least as credible as the rumors about Palin. I note that Palin has denied these reports for her part. Where is Mitt Romney? He is also a party leader with a prospective shot in 2012, and if he isn't culpable, it is long past time for him to step forward and denounce this backstabbing for the sake of the Party if no other reason. If he doesn't, I'll be inclined to find these reports as baseless, and Mr. Romney as a snake.
I hate to sound like a loon charismatic Christian, but someone I know in the UK church had a vision about a “black haired man” fighting over the sick and possibly dying corpse of John McCain with a woman for power.
This was back in Sept/August. This preacher does not know US politics.
I immediately said the black haired man is Mitt Romney...
This preacher has also had alarming visions about nuke attack on the US.
Sorry to scare up Biblical stuff but I do believe Romney is after Palin for 2012 power. They’d like to “Katherine Harris” her now.
