Sarah Palin,
You gave up running to spare your family the liberal media smears.
But you think your family will be prosperous or even safe the way the U.S.A is going toward socialism? Think again. Please reconsider and run and win the presidency. Only you can save the U.S.A. from becoming a socialist hell hole. You think your family will prosper in socialist U.S.A? think again. When the socialists(democrats) achieve total power then the democrats/socialists will come after people like you who have money and are conservative first. Mark my words. think it can't happen in the U.S.A? think again. And the marxist/democrats hate you most of all because they knew you were the only one that could stop them from achieving their goal so they will come after you first.
If Palin had been in the race, the smear tactics would have failed...
***********************************************************
Assuredly the most absurd statement to date about the media and Palin. The reason Palin is not running this time is because she herself believes she cannot win in this enviromnent.
Ditto and Amen to that!!
No matter how it`s spun, Palin`s backing was simply too confined to her fan base. Voters beyond that group weren`t going to throw their support behind her.
And, yes, the “media” will dutifully serve their masters in the DNC by going hard into opposition research against Cain. As with they did vs. Palin, what they can`t find, they`ll invent. They`re going to want to throw Cain off-message as much and as often as possible.
One narrative the “media” will trot out is Cain`s history with cancer.. they`ll frame it around whether it`s “wise” to elect someone who could “die in office in this unstable and challenging time.”
As for Romney, the “media” attack dogs have a special plan for him. Once he secures the nomination, watch for widespread attacks on his Mormon religion. Those attacks won`t subside until The onslaught produces a comfortable double-digit lead for 0bama.
I`ve always maintained that..no matter his poll numbers... while an almost perfect campaign could result in a win for the GOP nominee, 0bama is going to be extremely difficult to defeat. The forces in the “media,” the mobs he`s currently field-testing, the likely $1B he`s going to have at his disposal, and .. through it all.. a lingering desire of Americans to find reasons to like him are all powerful advantages.
And let`s also not forget the “0bama-killed-bin-Laden” propaganda movie (one that would make Leni Riefenstahl proud) slated for premiere in mid-October next year.
Without the financial crash which conveniently happened in mid sept of 2008 McCain would have won. He was up 5 points at the time and the crash, which has still not been explained, is what turned the tide.
The GOP insiders have won, unfortunately it is a Pyrrhic victory. Perry and Cain are not devils but are simply not first tier. They have shoved Bush, Dole, Bush , McCain and now Romney down our troats - all RINOs.
I am as conservative as it gets. I will not vote nor will I work for Romney. Many others will sit home as well. The insiders have little idea what they have just done.
The financial problems of this country are so overwhelming that only a true outside reformer could have changed things. Romney is not that outsider.
You all seem to be caught up in personalities. You all don't seem to understand the rate the U.S.A is declining when we should be rising. The country and so the world is in deep trouble.
That's nonsense.
That was NOT the source of her power.
Her power derived from being practically the only one to get up and actually say from the heart what so many people who love this country feel -- speaking for those Americans who work hard and play by the rules and do their best to raise their children properly and have watched the Ruling Class do their best to destroy the greatest nation on earth with the poison of secular progressivism and statism.
She still speaks for that soul of America and I predict she will be the second most effective campaigner for the conservative cause in the coming campaign.
Why do I say the second?
One single poll gave that result. No others showed her within single digits.
She would`ve had to reach to the indies and moderates because the conservative base doesn`t hold sufficient numbers alone to pull off a victory. They were more anti-Palin than they are anti-Obama. We can visualize all we want about Palin “wiping the floor with Obama,” but the consistent stats say otherwise. Ron Paul`s backers say the same thing about their guy, too.
It’s possible a yet unknown will step in. Maybe Sarah knows something that we don’t.
Robert Eugene Simmons Jr. wrote another American Thinker
article “The soft dictatorship” A very scary read and I believe he was an avid Palin fan! He is expressing his
disappointent and revealing a fear I think we all have to some extent. The fear being that if Obama does not go down in utter defeat and a true reformer becomes president then we may be witnessing The last days of a free America. He best get on The Cain Train an fight IMO!!
“I will not vote nor will I work for Romney. Many others will sit home as well.”
So, you are voting for Obama, and the Destruction of the United States as we know it, then?
however, I don't think Palin could have won, not even close....
“Once he secures the nomination, watch for widespread attacks on his Mormon religion.”
I personally couldn’t care if the Republican nominee declares he’s a PASTAFARIAN, and declares that he worships the Great Spaghetti Monster next year.
America cannot survive another 4 years of this race to totalitarianism. Remember something, Hillary Clinton was TOO CONSERVATIVE for the Chomskiite disciples we now have in charge of our government.
Which is why the Left may be preparing a switcheroo, to replace the Chicago Boys with a Chicago Gal instead (Beastwoman).
One thought about Palin's reneging that keeps rattling around in the back of my head is that she saw this coming: that if she joined the fray, she might get nominated, only to see the Dems respond by ditching Obozo for Hildebeast, which would be an imponderable matchup, woman vs. woman, Beast's experience vs. Sarah's, and so on and so on.
Too, she might have figured that one more conservative in the race would guarantee Mittens the nomination (this is why the RiNO's and MSM encouraged Perry to run in the first place, IMHO: as a divider on the right, and as a Judas horse who'd play ball in the end, trapping the conservatives).
“I’d say you are right...Although Cain has a lot of positives, I can’t imagine the Republicans picking him in the primary...And with the other two, it doesn’t much matter which one gets the nomination...They won’t generate enough interest for enough people to go vote...
One thing about Palin, love her or hate her, there would have been a genuine excitement in the race that is lacking now.....Cain will not get the nomination....If he does I will support him.....The rest are just recycled McCain’s.....Out of the millions of citizens in this land this is the best conservatives have to offer?.....Love Palin, but right now struggle with resentment towards her decision.....
It takes two for lies to work. One to tell them and one to believe them. We can’t just say we are doomed and give up. They threw everything at Bush and at Reagan. What counts is how effective the response is and how vocal the support is.
I think you underestimate the moral arrogance of white-shoe Establishment Republicans and their insistence on nominating "People Like Us". Social and cultural belonging are the most important characteristics a candidate can have, to these people. Right schools, right clothes, right accent, right finances, right references, right people.
They're bigots and snobs.
No way were they going to break for Perry -- he's a cracker from Paint Creek. Look how fast that "N*ggerhead" thing came out -- the other RiNO's were painting Perry as a barely-redeemed Klukker from socially unredeemed Kluxerland. That's what the senior Bushes think about all those people -- they despise them.
Christie or Huntsman might have been a different story: even RiNO's can recognize the weaknesses in damp-squib Mittens. But they will not, WILL NOT, ever, ever, ever give up their "standards" -- snob standards. No Perry, no Cain. Hick schools, hick accents, Waffle House manners -- no way.
