I am a Palin supporter because of her conservative position on political issues.

Sorry, but I don't really see much evidence of her conservatism. Yeah, she's pro-life and pro-gun. That's about it.

I have yet to see a single instance in which she makes a coherent case for conservative economic policy.

She failed utterly to do that during the campaign. Worse, she kept on repeating leftist platitudes that the financial crisis was due to "greed and corruption on Wall Street."

I'm sorry, but I expect better than that from a GOP nominee.

“I’m sorry, but I expect better than that from a GOP nominee. “

Your strong support for Mitt Romney contradicts your statement.

You can support who you will, but don’t attempt to give the impression that you don’t have a dog in seeing Palin put to sleep.

Then you're either not looking, willfully ignorant, or don't understand conservative issues. Besides being conservative on pro-life and Second Amendment positions, she is for smaller federal government. She has a very strong stance against corruption in both business and government, and her record on this is further strengthened by going after corruption in both parties. She is for a smaller federal tax burden and a simplified tax code. She is extremely pro-small business. She supports a very strong national defense, and she is against nationalized heathcare.

OTOH, Palin is in favor of developing America's domestic resources in the Oil & Natural Gas areas. While here overall economic philosophy needs "fleshing-out", she beginning at a strong starting point. The Dems seem to think that you can run an expanding economy on windmills & solar cells.

I hate to break it to you, but the Wall Street firms that were greedy and corrupt were Dem/Lib supporting machines. And thanks to the bailouts, Goldman and the rest will have plenty of money to continue to fund the lib agenda.
