according to Rass there is now two x Conservatives over Liberals

Not really true; if it were Hussein never would have been elected; he won North Carolina, Virginia, Ohio, Missouri, Nevada, and Colorado. No way the USA has a 2 to 1 margin of conservatives to liberals. He is the most liberal Democrat nominee in our lifetime.

I don’t think there has been. No one has excited us for a long time, even when it came down to voting for Bush the first time I was ho-hum at best over it, I was actually more fired up after his election when Gore was such an ass and kept Bush from being able to actually celebrate his win (the same thing Kerry denied him in 04) and the longer that ran the more I grew to hate Gore and like Bush, by 911 I was grateful Bush pulled that win out, even if it was in SCOTUS, I shuddered to picture Gore in charge that day.

I received an RNC fundraising letter from Michael Steele.

I wrote on it in big letters with a black marker “Sarah Palin in 2012 or not a dime!” signed, and dated it, and sent it back to him in the postage paid envelope he provided.

And, in honor of Sarah’s new beginning today, I made my third donation to Sarahpac.

Actually, it could well be true.

Most folks are center right without being Movement types. They are “Leave Us Alone” people.

They voted in vast numbers for O’Fuhrer because Bush was an incompetent git.

Best,

Chris

Thank you, glad you liked it. You may like this one that I wrote during the campaign:

Gov Sarah Palin is that clean Breath of Alaskan air that is foreign to the smog gaspers in DC and just can’t handle. No, they are so used to inhaling the smoke they’re choking down like it is for everyone. Well America knows when they see the real thing and long to taste that cool breeze. We don’t like the slick rehearsed bilge but prefer common sense and American values. That is why the Libs hate politicians like Reagan, Bush, Thatcher or Truman since they don’t have complex answers trying to message their lies. No, the Palins of the World just tell you what they think from the hip and let the PC ninnies feign outrage.

Gov Palin irritated the ruling class of elitists both left and right when she said she didn’t care what they thought. That stuck her in the class of Bush/Reagan since she clearly embarrassed the Chablis sipping Republican avant guard. These so called conservatives who live in either DC or the Upper East Side claim to be conservative yet attend all the A list parties, don’t want to have to explain Gov Palin to their smug friends. They have to try to explain what it is to hunt or fish as well as tell their friends that there is somewhere besides the NE corridor. No these conservatives are more like Hilary than Sarah. Their idea of camping is having the windows open at the Hamptons, where they call fishbait; Sushi.

Most Conservatives who are unashamed pro-life, hunting, fishing, drilling for oil, raging heterosexual hayseeds; enjoy leaders who have backbones. We love Gov Palin as well as heroes who will sacrifice their freedom for ours and don’t need some sweet talking metrofag telling us why we should be ashamed of our Country. No we love our wives, families and Country just like Gov Palin. We respect and thank her for the fact that she is willing to risk her son for her Country. That is a sharp stick in the eye of the Cut&RunocRats. She’s not bitter that she’s an attractive woman and is wise enough to know what a gift that is. She is us and we are her.

Gov Palin is a leader in the mold of Harry Truman, willing to go after corruption wherever that may be. She found Republican dirt in Anchorage and made sure it was eliminated and now she is ready to take that Columbo Overcoat to the District of Corruption. This is the rare breath of crystalline air America has lacked, making the Establishment nervous. Many of those elites know that if corruption is seriously rooted out, their friends could be in prison. So like always, DC circles the wagons, wanting to kill the calvary, which is their Stalincrat way.

The sad part is that some of our token conservatives like Georgie Will and Peggy Nooner are being tools for their liberal colleagues. You know, those Poopitsir Prize scribes who haven’t had an original idea in 20 yrs. They are the porch monkeys for the DNC as they turn their backs on Conservatism to be allowed on the veranda. These conservative Uncle Toms know that if they attack a Republican they get instant cred, a couple of back pats and an extra helping of brie. At least Judas got 40 pieces of silver.

Gov Sarah Palin has brought a freshness as well a fun ladylike charm to a Party that has been lacking for the last few decades. The femihags have told us that women can either be successful or have a family. Oh yeah, they reluctantly agreed that you could be a Hilary and have one child if it is raised by the state. They showed their true allegiance when they supported BJ and slutted every woman he assaulted. Gov Palin destroys feminism by being a happy wife, mother and Governor w/o nepotism. A self made woman in a manly man’s world was the feminag dream and now their worst nightmare. She makes the National Organization of Broads obsolete. So what if she doesn’t speak DC spin fluently. She ain’t there to woo the self-absorbed pundicRats.

Gov. Palin will drain the trough in the District of Corruption and root out the Hogs that caused this meltdown. Of course there will be resistance, but even though she’s hated by the usual enemies, as a woman she will be harder to attack politically. Unlike Obummer who is up to his feminine neck in corruption, deflecting his guilt like Jackie Chan some will stick. Sarah Palin and the Sheriff can throw these corrupt politicians behind bars although Dodd, Frank, Raines and Johnson would look good decorating some DC Lampposts. She can start naming the crooks now and give them a taste of what they are in store over the next 4 years. Then there will be an crisp Alaskan Breeze blowing over the gaseous swamp bringing a breath of fresh air from Foxy Lady Palin.

Pray for W, Gov Palin and Our Troops

I apologize...If it wasn’t clear to you. Some people refer to population or “most populous state” when they use the term “largest.” I am not.

While Alaska’s population is much less than other states its size, it is still a massive state to manage effectively; with thousands of miles of coastline, mountain ranges, the energy industry’s vast natural resources — all and more that must be managed by many state agencies and their employees.

Spread out over about 1/5th the size of the entire Continental United States and more than twice the size of Texas, the Governor is the direct manager of our largest oil reserves and natural gas reserves. Oil/Gas, Fishing, Tourism and Government are the largest employers throughout the State.

Compare Alaska to blue states with big cities in near proximity where travel times are more efficient versus all-day travel to geographically-sparse parts of Alaska is not a part-time operation. The sentence stands alone on its own merit in the context given. This subject was also exhausted in the GE. I hope the rest of the post was more clear.

Well, Carter won election and then was followed by Reagan. Not sure it can be said that a country is left or right based on who the current occupant is. Too many factors go into choosing a President. Instead I’d look to where they come down on issues both politically but in their own lives. In that sense I have no reason to believe the US does not still lean conservative. Too bad neither party can honestly lay claim to that designation right now.

I cut off McCain a long time ago, too, and just have Palin on my car. I have a nice keyed area and a dent right below it. Proud to have that keyed spot and dent,too ;) (my car is a 1998 Suburban so I am not too bothered)

I saw this at a friend’s house, and even though it enraged me, I had to buy it when I got home.

There is an extended interview with Sarah Palin, where John Ziegler shows her various clips of news items from the election, and there were a few that she didn’t see, and you can clearly see she is upset.

But even being upset, she was eloquent and classy.

In the documentary, it shows how the Katie Couric interview was cut up and spliced together to show her in the worst possible light (they show the original uncut footage, and contrast it with what America saw)

Very well done.

Why do you think time is on her side?”

Because after resigning, she now has the time she is going to need to raise the hundreds of millions of dollars she will need to battle the probably over a billion dollars that -11bama and his minions will throw at her or whoever the Republican candidate will be in 2012 (that is if she does indded decide to run).
She also has the time to go round the country, campaign for conservative Republican candidates, let the people get to know the real wonderful Sarah, launch a full time counter attack against -11bama’s professional assassins, smear and slander merchants, and go full out on a counter attack against -11bama himself, for the many crimes he's already commited against this country in just 6 months.

In just 11 months she's managed to alienate about half the American public.”

Now why don't you look at it the other way. In just 11 months, she's managed to get the strong, support of nearly half the country, undying support from most conservatives, and is more popular amongst Republicans than anyone else. Remember, she had zero name recognition, or support outside Alaska, before she broke into the national scene 11 months ago. How many politicians can go from zero to such national heights in just 11 months?

Her base is finite, isn't reproducing very fast, and it isn't large enough to win a national election.”

You could same the same thing about -11bama. -11bama has 97% support amongst black voters who are by far his strongest base. Black woman have more abortions than anyone, so blacks are no more reproducing as fast as Latinos, and blacks by themselves are not large enough a group to win a national election. Now if you look at the latest Rasmussen pools, you see that -11bama’s poll numbers amogst whites, is dropping like a stone, after his let the mask slip off, and showed what a rabid black racist he is, over the Gates arrest.

Republican nomination yes, election no. Reagan didn't have her high negative to deal with,”

Reagan had some pretty poor poll numbers at some times during his presidency too. He was under constant attack from the very same liberal media who constantly tried to make him out to be a dunce and an idiot, kinda like how they have been attacking Sarah.

and didn't have ACORN or illegals or ex-felons voting like the Democrats will bring us by 2012”

There have always been felons voting illegally, just not in such numbers as in the recent past. ACORN and felons voted in the 2000 elections too(we all remember Florida don't we?), and the Dims still lost. Same in 2004.
At the rate at which the dear leader is going, his poll numbers by 2012 could be low enough for him to be so thoroughly beaten, that even stealing votes by ACCORN can't save his sorry butt.
Meanwhile, the fightback against the criminals from ACORN has already started. The Republicans on the Hill just released a report calling ACORN a criminal enterprise. It's up to Republicans to keep an unrelenting, unremitting, steady attack against the ACORN vermin at a very high level, and shine the light of daylight unto their criminal activities, till 2010 and 2012 elections, and get as many of them prosecuted as possible in an effort to frustrate their ability to steal votes as much we can.

That was JUST AS GOOD! Keep it up Bray! Sarah is one of the FEW who makes ME want to throw my hat in the ring and enter politics. I have had more than a few friends say they would support me, ‘cause once I get on a rant and start spewing facts, it’s hard to stop me. My sister in law (who is WEALTHY and knows even WEALTHIER people) said she would help raise funds for me. Makes me think sometimes....especially with being self employed in the housing/construction industry, and not much happening lately. Wonder if I could take on Dave Reichert (one of the 8 repubs who voted for Crap-n-Tax)in the primaries? Problem is... no one knows who I AM! Could a guitar playing Mom start something? Don’t know....
