The Palin or nothing crowd Such a group on FR does not exist.
There are a few misguided, very passionate folks, that say they are, but when it comes down to it, they will support whomever is the (R) nominee, and so will I.
the Palin-bots and Paul-bots, and have an entirely different mission, ie., To Boot All Our Other Contenders Youre wrong. Just dead ass wrong.
Strong support, hooray, yeah, yeah, yeah, cheer leading, for sure (and why not?), but still its not like we/they spike personal attacks like the supporters of some other candidates do.
Dont do that. Do not throw out ad hominem and circular logic in a weak attempt to raise the value of your candidate.
Its always like this before the primary for every General and Mid term. THIS is the time for it. After all, we circle our wagons and solidify our support for the (R) NOMINEE after the Primaries. Dont we?
Gov. Palin is honest, temperate, principled and brave in thought, word and deed. Exactly the qualities I wish for in my POTUS.
And, so that you know, unless and until she does announce a run, I’m in the Gov. Perry camp.
P.S. Romney, one a good day, with the Sun shining over his shoulder, and with the Blessings of God, might, maybe, make a fair Commerce Secretary, but POTUS? Fuggetaboudit!
” There are a few misguided, very passionate folks, that say they are, but when it comes down to it, they will support whomever is the (R) nominee, and so will I. “
It is painfully obvious that we are all passionate. And I appreciate your scolding. I have not used ad homenim attacks, I don’t believe. The facts on the ground speak for themselves and there is little need to get personal. I hope I have not gone personal. I also hope you are correct, that these folks will get behind Rick, or we will all be living with Romney.
It is unhelpful to have a candidate who can not keep us on the same page by sharing his command of the issues, the tools to properly defend him on the facts of the case against him, one by one, as they come up. It goes to his competency to lead and our ability to defend him while he is leading.
I am not using circular logic to see clearly that we have threads here today that are off in the weeds, ignoring Obama, because we are left without enough information to properly defend Rick and battle against the bots of all stripes, who are on here today bashing Rick, promoting some yahoo candidate, or yaking about some other non-candidate’s high principles. Was “yahoo” ad homenim? Maybe I do use such devices. Hmm.
Like the snark tag, it would be helpful if the bots and the Perry brigade would once in awhile tag, or add a comment that we will each be supporting the best nominee for the general election. So, I hope you are right and that in the end we will.
