Sarah Palin Is A Republican Who Speaks At Tea Party Events Occasionally
Liberty Pundits ^ | May 7, 2010 | Melissa Clouthier

Posted on 05/07/2010 12:08:46 PM PDT by FTJM

Many Sarah Palin devotees seem shocked that Sarah Palin endorsed Carly Fiorina for Senator. They believed Sarah Palin to be representative of the Tea Party–who all endorse Chuck DeVore.

Sarah Palin is first, a Republican.

Sarah Palin has shown loyalty to John McCain and Carly Fiorina is a friend to John. Perhaps she feels it’s only right.

Sarah Palin speaks at Tea Party events and likes certain principles, but by her own admission she does not represent the Tea Party. In fact, she arrived late to the Tea Party–it had been growing and thriving for months before her first speech at an event. She then signed on with Tea Party Express, whom many Tea Party activists view as a Republican organization (as opposed to a grassroots organization) to speak at the anchoring events.

Was it a good political move to endorse Carly Fiorina? Not for Sarah…and maybe not for Carly. This is California, after all, and Chuck DeVore has the Tea Party and serious conservative vote wrapped up. Some have speculated that this endorsement was a desperate move to shore up a failing campaign. Although, it looks like many big donors are going to move in to help Carly because they believe she has the best chance against Barbara Boxer.

Once more, I believe the establishment is wrong. First, they’re misjudging the grassroots sentiment. A Sarah Palin endorsement won’t win Carly Fiorina votes. It just won’t. And it’s condescending and tone-deaf to believe it will. Second, Carly Fiorina is not the best candidate–in the primary or the general.

The tea partiers themselves are more accurate than your 2,000 year old poll

The only collection of their views is the poll.

If you have something besides you imagination to use as a source, then post it.

Yes, to know the views of a group of people on a subject, someone has to question them and collect the information, so far, only field poll has done that.

That is called a “source”, your personal opinion on the voting percentage breakdown of a group scattered all over California, is not a “source”.

Well everyone is entitled to their opinion

Polls are so accurate, and the questions are perfect so the results are accepted by many people as gospel

Having been on the ground of the tea party movement I have seen different results from the polls.

Impersonal biased polls are your reference, tea partys and tea party members are mine

If you want to base all your knowledge of this issue on one poll, fine.

If you do some research you will find a different result

LOL, it's clear you don't want a different result, so keep up the ostrich act.

I have checked my own character and I’m good with it.

So, you see nothing wrong with Palin’s character. It’s ok by you that she’s going to bat for RINO’s? The same RINO’s that has cursed us with the current administration.

There are a lot of liberals who see nothing wrong with nObama’s character either.

We have California polling data, you have nothing to refute it with.

How much hot air can you keep blowing, you said you don’t like it, you don’t accept it, fine.

Well you got me with the finger thing. Great comeback.

Again with the caps, you are angry. Calm down, have what ever soothes your nerves, it’s the weekend enjoy it.

I don’t ever remember telling you that you couldn’t have Palin. Just don’t get pigeon holed into believing she’s the savior. If you do, you’re no better than the Obamabots.

Who the hell do you think you are w/your asinine comment- "I couldn't have Palin". YOU telling me what to do? Get lost you piece of crap - you are an obamabot and you display it with your stupidity and your thoughts of anyone being a 'savior' - STRICTLY LIB TALK!

Yes you do, and that's all you have and all you want.

I have real life data collected on the ground.

Show me anything else proving your point besides your poll if you want to show that your poll has any validity

Your poll doesn't show that any of their TPM choices have been at or any teaparties or been endorsed by any tea partiers or tea party orgs.

This is fun!

This will have to go down as one of my odder experiences here, good luck with your California wide, “data collecting”.

Calm down, have your mommy make you some warm milk. I haven’t told you what you can or can not do.

You really shouldn’t use profanity and please put the caps key down. It makes you look dumber than you probably are.

And maybe just maybe, since you’ve picked a fight with more than just me on this topic, and are losing the argument with all of us, you are the lib talker. Since you don’t have a screen name yet, it seems to fit. Try it.

According to an article accompanying a Washington Post/ABC News poll released on Wednesday: “About 61 percent of tea party opponents say racism has a lot to do with the movement"
Poll proves Tea Party Movement is racist

Think about that a little more.

Read the sentence again and see what it really says.

“About 61 percent of tea party opponents say racism has a lot to do with the movement”

Boxer’s not the problem.

WRONG! She is precisely the problem. Focus, focus on the big picture. We have a chance to send a Caifornia GOP senator to Washington for the first time in 22 years. Palin is right. Unite early and beat Boxer.
