There are those who imagined that "The Huck" was a stalking horse for Romney. Were they wrong? Was he instead a stalking horse for the Time Magazine candidate of the decade ~ McCain?

Or, maybe, as some suspect, he decided to run for President and see what he could do.

Here's another thought for you. Way back in the various primary campaigns over the last decade the Rev. Al Sharpton struck many as the SMARTEST guy running in the Democrat primaries.

Romney is his own blocking action. Guy doesn’t have a chance to get the nomination from Republicans.

He is, but Obaama doesn't want to take any chances!

Cheers!

I agree. Sarah should jump in now.

The current field of “presidential” candidates on our side is pretty grim looking so far without her. Maybe Michelle, but I think she is just not ready for 2012, maybe 2016 if the worst should happen (God forbid).

Would love to avoid Newts and RINOs, but we may have no choice :-(

Not surprised by decision. He is better off not running.

I agree, I don’t think Palin’s going to run either. I think she likes her current job and she hasn’t even set up an exploratory committee: http://blogs.wsj.com/washwire/2011/04/20/palin-exploratory-committee-isnt-on-radar-yet/

I'm hanging on to what Sarah said,"I think it is too early for anyone." I'll be just sick if she doesn't run. I wish the candidates would all realize what dire straits our country is in and that our future depends on defeating the Marxist in the WH.

This is a national security and national survival issue we're talking about here, not some petty political difference between old school, (pre-Johnson), democrats and republicans.

We need to all rally around Sarah early, top to bottom, and that includes the so-called elites in the party and FOX. The internet and talk radio are ours because we expose The Truth and shall continue to do so. It's the Republican Party, the elites, FOX and yes, you too Mr. Trump, that need to support Sarah early if we are going to defeat the billion dollar communist.

Sorry for the rude question.

But what I meant wasn’t that Huckabee gave us McCain (though he helped) but rather that 2008 was an utter fiasco and Huckabee was a big part of that.

Again, pardon my rude post.

Looks like one of the other pesky anti-Palinites (e'en though he runs the Iowahawk ping list) is all choked up over the removal of one of his compatriots.

Evening, try reading post #141 this thread. The ex-troll signed up in 2006 and had literally only six or seven posts to FR in that time.

Then started up to trash Palin, and more or less accused me of wanting to rape him (now-deleted post #201).

...tread carefully and with due consideration, mmmkay?

Cheers!

That would be pissant on the far left and leadertiger on the left.

(...I don't care to describe either of them as "on the right.")

Cheers!

Compatriot? I never heard of landertiger before today.

So what?

And why do you have to celebrate zottings? :(

Huh, then why did you post the pic of The Ox-Bow Incident on this thread after the banning, if not in solidarity with a fellow PDS troll?

Of course, it is a good thing to remain compartmentalized, particularly when attempting to execute the Diamond Strategy.

Sleeper troll. Don't play innocent, Mr. Van Winkle.

Take that up with the VK ping list.

Cheers!

I saw the thread and read some posts. That's how I learned about him.

Diamond Strategy? What are you talking about?

Sleeper troll. Don't play innocent, Mr. Van Winkle.

Sleeper troll? Sleeper troll??? I never heard of a sleeper troll.

Did you even notice that you failed to answer the question?

Diamond Strategy? What are you talking about?

This year, on Free Republic, the site you PDS trolls are infiltrating:

HOW COLLECTIVISTS USE THE DIAMOND TACTIC TO SWAY PUBLIC MEETINGS AND HOW TO THWART THEM

Sleeper troll? Sleeper troll??? I never heard of a sleeper troll.

It depends on what the meaning of the word 'is' is.

Best news since Barbour announced he wasn’t running.

Wish Newt would have made the same decision. He's such a freakin' RINO.

Good for him...an honorable decision.

Otherwise, we just keep dividing up the conservative vote to give the win to a moderate.

You need an anti-earworm song. That’s one that wipes the song stuck in your head out (the earworm), but it isn’t one that stays itself.

Mine is “You Mean Everything to Me.” It works every time for me.

Sing it out loud and clear!
