“Don’t underestimate the stupidity of voters who believe the media hype. Many people hate Palin and they can’t even articulate why. They think she is uneducated and a poor leader.”

Well, like I said, the worst of them would never vote Republican anyway. As for the rest, if they have a choice between Obama, who they probably hate and CAN articulate why, and Palin, I think they’ll choose Palin.

The bottom line is, we can’t make the same mistakes we’ve made over and over again, the stakes are too high. Running a RINO against Obama is suicide. If we nominate some relatively unknown conservative, the media will try to smear them as bad as they smeared Palin. Do you think the “voters who believe the media hype” won’t fall for that again?

Let’s stop catering to or fearing our enemies and start nominating proven LEADERS to lead us.

point well made.
the last thing I want is another McCain / Obama choice. Dear god no. I was hoping for someone Like Thompson but with more fire.

Politics is tricky at best on a good day. Making predictions etc on who would win is always hard. The stakes have NEVER been higher in my life (almost 50 now) that I can remember .. including the cold war.

I only wish that the media would do their job instead of playing the role of Pravda. I would sleep so much better at night with an educated public.
