In my referenced source, Gov. Chris Christie of NJ met recently in Manhattan with some business tycoons who were trying to persuade him to run. The next to the last paragraph states that several said that "they are Republicans, but voted for Barack Obama in 2008 because they disagreed with having Sarah Palin on the GOP ticket."
What is frickin' wrong with people? Has this nation gone nuts. I know a college-graduate banker who voted for Obama because he did not like the way Sarah Palin said: "You betcha."

The hell with them. Look where they are now. dont feel sorry for them one bit.
whens the last time the word ‘tycoon’ was used? The 1980s? Who the hell cares who some rich bastard in NYC votes for last time around. Their electoral votes are already long lost. I’d rather focus on what voters in Ohio, Florida, Virginia and Nevada are looking for in a candidate.
Let’s give them another chance to show their “TRUE” colors, (red), by nominating Palin / West.
PALIN / WEST 2012
“I know a college-graduate banker who voted for Obama because he did not like the way Sarah Palin said: “You betcha.”
Educated to imbecility...
Manhattan and Washington DC are dead-zones of group think. They are the absolute spiritual centers of American Progressivism.
It is unavoidable to anyone living there to drink some of the Kool-Aid.

I hope that if Obama is reelected that they lose every frickin’ penny of their money, their wife leaves them for another man, their daughters marry crack-heads and their sons marry crack whores.
“Well, we will get what we deserve.”
Well not always, I was hoping for no bailout. I’m tired of bailing everyone out then watch them stab us back. They created the garbage that we are having to pay for so they can maintain their lifestyles. They were at least honorable in the great crash and jumped.
What is wrong is this notion, spread by the Junk Media, that some how because a person is an "expert" in a particular field, they are "smart". As is seen every day in the US "news": media, a person can be highly skilled in a particular field and be a complete moron in every other field.
The rich will support whichever candidate they think they can control. Usually, this is the Democrat.
They’re complaining about Obama’s “class warfare” - i.e. his move to raise taxes among upper bracket earners. It might not be a bad thing if the Democrats won the trifecta in 2012, if it permanently cured these morons of their illusion that the GOP is the problem with America.
Even the DEMs have major “buyers remorse”, plenty of middle Americans have it, and lots of weak Republicans have it. I am not surprised.
Now if after being burned this bad they do it again.... Then I would say that they are idiots.
I live in the Philly burbs. I volunteered for a GOP Congressional campaign last year. Too many pubbies I met in the area felt the same way about Palin - from the well-connected to the rank-and-file. There is a widespread provincial attitude here against someone who doesn't fit their preconceptions. It is something Palin will have to work hard to overcome if she seeks and wins the nomination - and Palin is my personal first choice for the nomination.
This is Politico remember, pulling up that insulting little nugget to make us crazy, and the Lazone mob of money are democrats mostly who are mad at Obama. Of course they are going to try and throw around barbs against our bases.
However, in 1980 they voted for Reagan anyway because the alternative was Mr. Peanut, just as this year the alternative will be Mr. Just Plain Nuts.
