And by the way, as much as 0bama turns people off, Sarah Palin does so even more, particularly among moderates and independents, where 0bama is particularly vulnerable.

We ought not nominate the one candidate that turns off independents even more than 0bama. That would result in snatching defeat from the jaws of victory.

Once again your logic is flawed, as well as your stated evidence.

The turn-off of the moderates and independents is not as universal as you paint it.

Furthermore, it is a creation of a media that hates conservatives and conservatism.

So logically, if the candidate is a conservative and holds true to conservative positions on the issues, they are going to receive the same treatment.

So you my friend, are either going to have to settle for a moderate, that will have the same chances as winning as McCain always had, or you are going to settle for a real conservative who is going to recieve the EXACT SAME TREATMENT as Sarah.

Which will it be?

A moderate or a conservative?

The turn-off of the moderates and independents is not as universal as you paint it.

Look at the trend from last week...

You know, the way moderates and independents vote has little to do with policies.
They vote on personality.

And Sarah Palin’s personality grates on most people who are not ideological conservatives.
That’s why she can’t win.
