Erick Erickson: “moving on from Sarah Palin is like leaving Scientology” (Erick, grow up!)
Legal Insurrection ^ | 9/7/2011 | William Jacobson

Posted on 09/07/2011 10:18:27 AM PDT by Lakeshark

I guess that makes me a Scientologist, because I’ve posted repeatedly that Palin holds a special position because there is no one — not even George W. Bush — who has been the subject of the Democratic, mainstream media and left-blogosphere smear machine to the extent Palin has.

So yes, I do take it personally when conservatives lash out at Palin not because of her policy positions or what she’s done or not done in her career, but with personal invective.

It’s not religion, its a cold hard understanding of what is to come, and how those who call Palin a diva or a tease or any of the other names coming from media conservatives do damage to us all. Palin is simply the test case for how the Republican nominee, whoever that person may be, will be treated, and we pile on her at our own peril.
**snip**
Simply by waiting to announce, Palin has driven media conservatives mad. It all seems so familiar.

The ultimate winner was in the top three of those polled in the fall. This is true going back for decades of presidential runs.

So, what is our top three right now?
Perry, Romney ... who is third?

Idiot, there was no debate.

There were a handful of unqualified, but declared “candidates” being frog-marched by the far left mediots.

Common sense stopped Palin from declaring last week; she’s the only one that makes her own decisions. The rest are mindless sheep, as the false “debate” has proven.

Absurd is your name.

And the primary starts the first week of February.

When do you think someone should start raising the money for it? Or start the paperwork necessary to declare their intent to run? Or collect the required number of signatures in every territory of the USA necessary to be placed on each’s ballot?

And remember, the is Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year’s in between, where nothing is going to really be processed or completed. So, cut out three weeks in between now and February.

Bears repeating.

Don't say "worshipping" is too strong a word. When not one negative thing can be stated about someone without a loyal herd pouncing on you, it's worshipping.

This is why Sarah will never win - people like you keep insulting and pushing away the very people she would need to support her if, miracle of miracles, she could actually win the nomination. Oh, well, continue on in your little fantasy world.

A self avowed hater, who will actively campaign against her, and sit out the election if she gets nominated.. that sort of person? She actually needs those people?

Coming from you, that is rich.

Proving my point once again. If you can point to ANY post I have made where I hade said I hate Palin, or even where I said I didn't like her, do it. You can't. But you cultists think that anyone who doesn't believe she can win hates her. And quite honestly, if you are the kind of people that support her, I don't think she SHOULD win - and I think you will do a good job of persuading more people to think that way. People like you will do more to insure Sarah's defeat than I ever could.

.....to where I will actively oppose her nomination, and if she wins the nomination I will sit the election out. And it is because I don't want her supporters anywhere near the levers of power.

Bullshit the baker you get a bun. Bullshit here, you get none.

Is that supposed to prove I hate Palin? Try again - that just shows I oppose her candidacy - and that I’m not too fond of her supporters...
