I don't have a problem with supporting the strongest candidate. That's probably Fiorina. I believe that the "RINO" term is way overused. And "losing with honor" is unrealistic.

I do find the split between Palin's ardent supporters to be interesting, though. One group is highly disappointed in her. In fact some of them are ready to throw her under the bus. Another group hates "RINOs" but feels that, "Hey! If Sarah says it's good, it's good!"

I haven't seen that split, most every name that I have seen attacking her are the same old names.

Something that many of her attackers have done for months, as you well know, is to always play that "concern troll" act of, THIS time she has gone too far, or THIS time she has whatever, as though in THIS thread, today, I have to turn on her.

Almost every time I look at their posting history, I see the same old, same old, being trotted out.

Is there a split within “her ardent” supporters? That assertion would seem to fall flat on its face. “Ardent supporters” are often described here in unflattering terms, such as “Sarah worshippers” and the like, which for the better part is just silly.

Oh, I’ve seen some vanites that I would call ‘worship-like’ but vanities only speak for the poster and those who agree with the posting.

Everyone has an opinion about Sarah, whether they support or not, and it’s pretty easy to tell who supports her from those who don’t and who never have, but claim they have up until...whenever.

I support Sarah, but I don’t expect everyone here to support her and in fact, I don’t want everyone here to support her. Conservative Republican politics is all about good competition.

I take umbrage only when she is gratititously and hatefully attacked repeatedly by those who seek to bring her down for reasons and purposes of their own, which is almost always in the attempt to promote their third party candidate.

Sarah has earned her voice on the national stage and she can endorse and support candidates of her choice and we are free to vote for whomever we please.

I applaud Sarah Palin for all of her hard work on behalf of our Conservative cause.

GO SARAH!

A few who have been taken in by those who have been fooled by Devore will understand and move along.

I also understand some males don’t like strong women and use made up excuses for not supporting strong women candidates.

All or nothing will always get you the liberal Democrat. This time, Boxer.


Carly Fiorina has been endorsed by the National Right to Life, the California Pro-Life Council, and the Susan B. Anthony List. She is pro-life, pro-traditional marriage, pro-military, and pro-strict border security and against amnesty.

She is against Obamacare and will vote to repeal it and prevent the government takeover of private companies and industries. Carly is also a strong supporter of the Second Amendment.

She is a member of the NRA, has a 100% NRA rating, and she and her husband are gun owners. She is pro-energy development and believes as I do in an all-of-the-above approach to energy independence.

She is against cap and tax. And most importantly, Carly is the only conservative in the race who can beat Barbara Boxer
