Free Republic’s gone. When someone like Medina can’t even get into the runoff in place like Texas (barely 20% of Republican primary vote), you can (almost) forget someone like Palin making national.

It’s over, folks. Obama knows what he’s doing. My fear is that he knows America better than the rest of us think we do.

He knows that if he can keep 15 million people on Unemployment benefits come November, they will ALL vote Democrat to protect thier checks.

AND HE’S RIGHT...

It’s not over ‘till it’s over. And it ain’t over yet. Don’t go wobbly on us before the most important election since 1860. We’ve still got a decent chance.
Now if that don’t work out, we’ve still got a better than even chance with bullets and bayonets!

Medina had a chance. Then she revealed her true stripes and threw it away. Your argument would work better were she a Conservative.

'When someone like Medina can’t even get into the runoff in place like Texas"

Why in the word would you think someone as criminally inexperienced as Medina either could or should get into a runoff for the governorship of the 2nd most populated state in the union? Medina hasn't run so much as a Taco Bell, and yet she has the temerity to believe she can manage a state with a budget as massive as the Texas budget? It's ridiculous.

The fact that she couldn't get 20% of the vote, says nothing about government dependence and everything about the sanity of the TX primary voters.

People in Texas generally noticed the whack job 911 conspiracy comments (DM).

We also noticed the lack of a border fence (KBH).

We also noticed our spot at the near top of the economic and jobs ladder (RP).

We know what Perry is and isn’t. He was the best option in this election.

Oh please Chicken Little. Medina ran a lousy, underfunded campaign and the truther thing finished her off. Showing up at the Log Cabin Rep meeting didn't help either.

obummer is a THUG nothing more. We can and must fight him off and just as a thug he’ll back off only when and if he realizes power from the other side. We just have to be better at projecting power to this scumbag miscreant. He has a few more months of glory and then party’s over for him and his gang. I have no doubts about it.

Medina has nothing to do with Palin or our dependency nation.

Medina was a terrible candidate. Period. She didn’t deserve to make it into a runoff against Perry.

As to the issue of the USA becoming a welfare state, yes, this is a problem so bad that I seriously doubt it can be undone short of massive social upheaval.

There will be no way to repeal Obamacare. It is too big and will get its tentacles into every part of our healthcare system. It will fail, as I assume we all already know on this forum, but the solution from the US Congress will most certainly be MORE government. The left already knows this, and it is part of their big picture strategy - why by the way, they openly admit when speaking amongst themselves.

We are on the road to Western European socialism. The US has been headed down that path for a long time, and under Obama this trend marches forward. Sadly, Bush was not a whole lot better.

Nope. Real people don't believe what he does. I do believe, however that what used to be a 15% leech population is now above 25% and that is expensive and very worrisome because the real wealth creation power of this country is declining. That means that the pie keeps shrinking like it always does under marxism.

Medina would have done a lot better if she didn't have a "Truther" bumpersticker stuck on her forehead.

Gag, never put Medina, whose entire experience revolves around confusing rectal and oral thermometers, and suing the GOP, in the same sentence with Palin who ran the largest State in the Union and has more executive experience than the President.

Medina is a 9/11 truther. She was a total non-starter. Good riddance.

Over? Did you say “over”? Nothing is over until we decide it is! Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor? Hell no!

Medina, you’re kidding right? She has no one to blame but herself.

The bond market hasn’t voted yet. When it does, it will bring all entitlement programs crashing down. Unfortunately, it will bring everything else crashing down too, but that’s how this gets done, absent some outbreak of sanity amongst our elected class.

Medina is Ron Paul with a yeast infection and as big a liar as Obama.

Your crap would make sense if she was a conservative rather than a LIEbertarian.

Well, many of the Tories in England say that conservatism was pushed to the side when socialized medicine was enacted. The argument became more of an argument between Big Government and Bigger Government. Maybe in reality we lost that battle along time ago. Until this problem really hit its precipice, even the GOP politicized entitlements and wouldn't dare reduce Social Security benefits if it meant angering the elderly electorate. Hell, all the GOP did was pander to the elderly by enacting Medicaid.
