I am not a Palinista but I love her and appreciaBut she is doing EXACTLY what she needs to do....support other Pubs....
people have got to get a clue about how to get to the presidency, and it certainly is not by alienating the main party.....
she is one of us...her heart is good....but she is loyal and she is reaching out....
if Palinistas want her as president or even a national leader, they must accept the fact that being a national leader carries responsibilities that aren't alway our cup of "tea"....

And how we will wind up with Mitt "Romneycare" Romney.

by the same token, criticizing her does not imply a full denunciation
i see some posters here...some even the exact same ones...who created a cult of personality around Bush and rode herd over no criticism of him especially about immigration now back here doing exactly the same thing over Palin
whom I support...course I supported Bush too
but I also can and will criticize them when I disagree like now
it would not have hurt for Palin to have just waited it out
all this will sure make for some bloodletting here in the nomination process...that is for certain

Party over Conservative principles is the same thinking the OP(formerly the GOP) has used for years in order to expand the voter base. The only result has been incremental socialism and allowed socialists to control the executive and legislative branches of government. It was a losing strategy then and will be again. Palin has been sucked into the same loser mentality.

people have got to get a clue about how to get to the presidency Unfortunately, the 300,000 votes from FR experts don't translate to a 51% win in congressional, senatatorial, and electoral races.
We sure know how to "make a statement", but someone(s) outside FR will have to lead the way to win elections and save the nation.

To 8 - You are correct.
Mrs P has enraged me, but she much more oft instills a feeling of genuine hope, (as opposed to Obama's kind).
Constructive critique of Palin, or any pol, is desired. What taints the Right are those who lie about Palin, insist she has sold out, or call her juvenile; idiotic names.
If it is one's desire to negate and annul what Obama & Co. have foisted on America, then we'd better damn well be wanting Sarah Palin to run for POTUS in 2012.
