I was totally in the tank for Palin. I was sure she would run.
I don’t think I’m bitter. I just felt an odd detachment when she decided not to run.
I don’t understand it myself because I was so into her, but she’s just not on my radar anymore.
I still would like her if I thought about her but I don’t think about her.
Fortunately, I had a candidate waiting in the wings who was my second choice and I immediately moved on to him.
I feel sorry for the Palin people who didn’t have a fallback guy because a lot of them flocked to Cain, who self-destructed and was never the man they thought he was.
There were very racist comments on one thread that were generated by (the few but very nasty) Texas Perry supporters. It shocked me enough to tell them how they did not just disgrace themselves and other Texans, they disgraced FR, and I am sure that the DU’ers were waiting to post their racist rants about Herman Cain all over the Media sites. Is it any wonder that Perry got into trouble for that offensive sign? I did not blame him for that,but some of his friends who act like they are still fighting the civil war. Thank God most Texans are not at all like that,just the opposite.
Herman Cain did not self destruct,anymore than SP did, this was the Axelrod,Obummer,DNC,Soros Mafia at work paying people to lie. I am surprised that your bias for Perry has foiled your usual high level of insightful understanding ,especially political “win at any and all costs” dirty tricks. It boggles my mind.
Perry self destructed in dozens of ways, and
will continue, no wonder Newty is getting a lot more supporters, what a contrast.
I supported SP first,Herman Cain second,and Rick Santorum third,Bachmann is fourth. I would never support Gingrich,Perry,Paul or Huntsman. People are so depressed about the really lousy field of candidates that they are shedding all sense of decency in attacking others that do not support their candidate.
Thankfully, I have too much hard work to do everyday that keeps me from the nastiness, and also the non stop BS. Life is too short.
Haven’t you heard the meme from the jilted Cainiacs...if you didn’t like him, you’re automatically a racist. Never mind his million flaws, stupid ideas, lack of general knowledge, and mind a twirling.
The jilted still hate Perry, but Perry is still hanging around and didn’t fold up like a cheap lawnchair like their idols.
My fallback guy has no chance. Rick Santorum. Who, you ask? My opinion of the field hasn’t changed. I don’t think of Sarah much now either, but if I did, it would remind me that we are all screwed. Enjoy life until the catastrophe arrives, I say. Bob
