I am not re-arranging the words, I am being consistent. Sorry if you find that troublesome. I am driving the same point home, without talking points, because what I saying is true. And I understand perfectly well what I am talking about. As far as Romney goes He was very articulate about conservative principals. And I know that he said he had a change of heart about a few issues. That’s about as complicated as it was for me. I liked the guy, but he was slandered and we ended up with McCain. It’s important to have articulate leaders. The bottom line, Romney did a pretty good job upholding conservative principals in a very liberal state. I wouldn’t blame Romney if he never wanted to run for office again. He tried. He was a true servent. He didn’t need the money, he wasn’t an opportunist. He really wanted to help. Palin is not a servent, she is an opportunist. All she has done is been on the government payroll her entire career. She is not a good conservative spokesperson.

uhm that is because palin did not go in to politics with the plan to make it a career. she began as a pta mom, like many of us have done. she was ENCOURAGED to run for mayor and again for governor. her “career” was not planned. she is not nor has she ever been a “career politician” as much of our party is now.
she did not seek out a VP slot, again she was approached and asked to serve her country. a opportunist seeks out these positions, not the other way around.
you may claim to know what the “moderates” want, but you are wrong. my husband, as well as some friends and family could be classified as moderates or “swing voters” and they LOVED her.
most if not all peeps i have talked too that like her say the main attraction to her was she was one of us, not a another lawyer, not part of the “machine”....despite your claims otherwise that it has to do with her looks or feminine appeal. that is more liberal BS.
despite how hard the msm and the left AND those in our party try to say otherwise she has broad appeal. had our party voted or not voted third party we may have won despite the immense dislike for mccain....

"I'm not running as the Republican view or a continuation of Republican values.
That's not what brings me to the race.

I'm very clear I think, to the people across the Commonwealth
my "R" didn't stand so much for Republican as it does for reform."
