Hey Reagan...

I completely agree with your post and understand where you are coming from. When the whole “visor-gate” thing happened and Sarah said she supported McC’s re-election, I was so upset. I got on C4P and told them my feelings - that I was very dissapointed that she would support this guy bc he WAS NOT a conservative. I was told that I was a “phony supporter” because of how I felt...I thought, WTH? Is no one else holding her accountable?? You hit it right on the head...people’s love for Sarah is clouding their judgement.

After reading Palin’s resignation speech I realized that she didn’t say she would only support “conservative” candidates. She said:

““I will support others who seek to serve, in or out of office, for the right reasons, and I don’t care what party they’re in or no party at all. Inside Alaska—or outside Alaska.”

Now, that doesn’t change the fact that McC is NOT running for the right reasons. If he really wanted what was best for America, he would retire. But obviously, he wants the power and won’t give up the fight. But I don’t think Sarah has LIED to us per say...but I completely understand where you’re coming from. My faith in Sarah has been shaken and it makes me pretty sad.

I live in AZ and have a fire in my belly like never before. Mccain is not going to be victorious in November. His time has come. Sarah can endorse and stump for him if she wishes...but she WILL go down with the ship.

I still love her very much...but I draw the line here. McCain has NOT magically changed his mind and become more conservative. He is what is WRONG with this country.

Well said. I hope someone is successful in challenging McCain. I will gladly and generously support any conservative who runs against him.

Are you in AZ?

You got to consider that Sarah's caught in a jam here. Campaign against the guy who introduced you to the rest of the world? I'd bet it loyalty that's driving her support not politics. I despise John McCain as much as anyone else. I also may contribute to JD Hayworth’s campaign.

“I still love her very much...but I draw the line here. McCain has NOT magically changed his mind and become more conservative. He is what is WRONG with this country.”

At the very least McLame is what is wrong with the LAME GOP leadership that has so abused its conservative base. And that may just be one of the key reasons *why* we’re all in this bind with bammy and the socialist RATS, because of horribly poor GOP leadership.

Does anyone reasonably think that if the GOP had stuck to their conservative principles and mandate in 1994 and truly ramped back government, rolled out freedom and opportunity, that we would have seen Clinton re-elected or everything along the lines of the 1994 revolution go kaput! in 2006?

This failure of GOP leadership and the THREAT of RAT socialism is directly what led to the success of the Tea Party movmement. Sarah ran with McCain before the Tea Party EXPLOSION. Why would Sarah want to jump in *again* with McCain, and be on the wrong side of that?
