I am a big fan of Sarah’s. I attended many of her rallies in 08 in Pa and Oh. I met some great people there and enjoyed them all. However, I do think we need someone different in 12. She will never be taken seriously by many people in this country. I think we need a new face who wasn’t involved in 08 at all. There has to be a person out there with her beliefs and character without the baggage.
"Ditto's Rush, I listen to you everyday, and I have voted republican my whole life, BUUUUUUT!What is it about you people that you cannot just start by saying what you think? Why is it you feel the need to stress your credentials before you go on the attack? All it does is give away your true nature. You are a Rino, and you think that Sarah is an idiot.
The MSM/Leftie cabal will see to it that anyone who is chosen will have lots of baggage by election day. With Sarah it's all old news and will be even older by Nov. 2012. I'm sure they other side is hoping against hope that we will panic and dump Sarah for a new face. A new face that they can delight in smearing with all new charges from now until the election. Barring something completely new turning up there's not much they can say about Sarah that hasn't already been said, over and over. I think she can hold her own, especially against charges that are yesterday's news.
There's a given percentage of the voters who would not vote for her under any circumstances, then there's those who would vote for her regardless. Between them is that vast gulf of ‘moderates’ who decide most contests. I think many of them will be very tired of of the same old hogwash about Sarah and might even begin to take her side against those who keep harping on the same ol’ same ol’.
"Baggage"? What baggage? I challenge you to name another contender for the 2012 nomination who is more squeaky clean than Sarah Palin.
By "baggage", you can only be referring to all of the lies and manufactured controversies of the left-wing/RINO MSM. Sarah herself has never done anything in her political career, or her public life that a rational person would define as "baggage".
If you fail to support the one person in our camp who actually has the experience, the courage, and the determination to take this country back to where it ought to be, simply because the MSM and the RINOs are telling you to do so, then that's just weak.
America hasn't seen a leader of Sarah Palin's caliber since at least the time of Reagan. We need to get behind her and push - not shrink back because the traitorous left doesn't like her.
