Now what would you do, considering, in all likelihood, she would not endorse your candidate of choice?
Let’s see:
Reagan ran three times before prevailing so we just keep propping her up until we get what we want.
Let’s do this, if Sarah loses and you can’t support any of the established potential nominees, who would you support?
If the Republicans put another RINO up then I’ll be sitting out 2012. And I’m not a “Palin supporter”.
I’m just sick and tired of voting for progressives with an “R” next to their name.
“This is a “what if” question.”
So is this;
What if chickens had lips instead of beaks. Would they whistle instead of cluck?
If Sarah Palin wants to run, she’ll win.
If for some reason she doesn’t run, then I’ll go with whoever she supports.
WE THE PEOPLE are going to choose our 2010 and 2012 Candidates and the Media is going to be spinning in their seats. We let them choose McCain for us without realizing what was going on. Or most of us, it seems. Never again.
We will NOT let the Media choose our Candidates in the Future.
And Bob J, you can tell that your buddies over on HuffiePost.
It depends on who it is, Bob. I don’t hitch up to any single politician to the exclusion of all others. As things stand today, three years before 2012 election, I like Sarah. I liked her before McCain (the Arrogant Loser) picked her for VP.
My first Presidential election was in 1956. I voted for the lesser of the two evils then and my choices haven’t been much better since. The next election (2012) may well be my last and I’ll be damned if I’ll go down that “lesser-of-two-evils” road again. I will vote for Sarah and I hope she’s on the ticket. If she’s not then most will think I’ve thrown my vote away. I alone will know that I’ve finally voted my conscience as the founders thought we should.
I don’t intend to support any of the namby-pamby, wishy-washy, corrupt lying republicans.
If they don’t nominate a decent, good, honest person with a will to fight, then they will lose, and they will deserve to lose, because they have learned nothing from the utter and crushing defeat in 2008.
If they nominate Palin, great!
If they nominate Romney, or Huckleberry, or Pawlenty, or Jeb Bush, OR PRETTY MUCH ANYONE ELSE WITHIN THE PARTY BESIDES BACHMANN, then say hello to four more years of Obama.
Whatta dumb question.
From the same minds that brought you
Dole
McCain
We now have the old - where else ya gonna go mentality setting in again.
Look, it DOES NOT matter what we do, it matter what the likes of STEELE and the Power Brokers in the smokey rooms full of cash do. They had BETTER START listening to the PEOPLE instead of the PUTRID PUNDITS ON TV
We don’t need another RINO - the only time the GOP wins is when they run a Conservative.
Tell me with certainty the world events
that will transpire next week.
This is a pretty dumb question. There are too many scenarios to cover at this stage:
1) Palin runs as a conservative, GOP selects a RINO before Super Tuesday and
a) Palin gives up vowing to return in 2016
b) Palin goes 3rd party after the start of primary season
2) Palin drifts away from conservatism to chase after the mythical “independent swing-voter moderate”
3) Palin is driven away from the GOP early enough to force her to go 3rd party before the primaries and
a) GOP runs a conservative
b) GOP runs a RINO
4) Palin decides to become a talk show host and drive the discussion and form policy
...and those are just the first scenarios to pop into my head.
We’re all tired of having our candidate “selected” by the left-wing media and a party that has lost its soul before we even get to vote in the primary, so let’s see who rises to the top before we start annointing them.
I make my fight in the primaries.
I will support the candidate that emerges from the primary.
I may not be happy but I will not throw my vote away on a third party candidate with no chance of winning.
And I never stay home on election day.

Second, I'll probably vote for the Republican candidate, regardless. The alternative will most likely be unacceptable, whether it is Obama or somebody else.
A third-party candidate would have to represent something really substantial, like the 1856 Republican candidate did, to pull votes away from the Whig.
A very important part of this puzzle will be to put some sanity into the primary process, to avoid the year-long circus and to avoid the spectacle of people like me in Illinois. I had the ability to vote early, weeks before the actual primary date. The person I voted for, and the first alternative I had, both dropped out by the actual primary date. That's a bad way to make an important decision; it's like voting in health care change that starts taxing now and providing benefits 3 or 4 years later.
Bottom line; I will vote for the person I consider to be the best candidate at the time. Hopefully, that will be somebody I can agree with, and somebody I can respect when I don't agree with them.
i will hope for a true conservative candidate. however if i do not get one that is exactly what i prefer, i will hold my nose and vote for anyone but the jackass in the office now.
I sincerely hope (but also doubt) that Sarah goes third party even before the primaries, I am done with the Steele and his RNC RINOS. In reality I assume she will run in and win the primary, in which case it’s obvious who I will vote for. If she does not win the primary I hope she goes third party, in which case I will vote for her. If she doesn’t, and the Republicans run a true Conservative (even more unlikely than Sarah going third party) I will vote for the Conservative Republican. If a Republican RINO runs I will either vote third party (I’m sure SOME Conservative will run) or if a Conservative does not run I will vote Obama to help destroy the Republicans. Downticket I will vote nothing but Conservatives, I don’t care what party they are on.
