Would you support Sarah Palin should she decide to run for the presidency in 2016?
Let's see. How does she compare to my litmus checks:
What's not to like?
Oh, yeah. That thing about not reading newspapers and also seeing Russia from her house. That's just too dumb to be true. /s
Well, but she did resign from her office, so I guess that's one thing not to like. But they all have at least one thing not to like. How does she compare on all the major conservative issues?
And the left absolutely hates her.
And Tokyo Rove and the GOP-e absolutely despises her.
But tea party conservatives like her. A lot!
And so do I.
How about you?
Are you ready to turn this country around with an honest to God pro-life, pro-family, pro-gun, God-loving, America-loving patriot and grassroots conservative favorite who we can all be proud of and for whom we will work overtime for a change?
Yup. That’s the reality.
it might ~ you know the Yupik live on both sides of the Bering and have done so for thousands of years. They can tell you what illegal aliens do to the neighborhood.
Yes. Talk her in to running, JimRob.
I can see Palin in the mix if she likes. I would hope if she is interested that she would consider the best preparation.
Face slap.....of course, I forgot my towel when I went to vote, that’s what happened.
If Palin is the nominee, yes.
Alan West makes a lot more sense.
Right now we are in desperate need of a battle tested warrior.
Wouldn’t the corruption in DC just follow them whereever they move? Just curious about your idea.
Whoops. That was supposed to be for the general thread.
That photo cracks me up, Palin just seems to enjoy life and the battles with the left, Cruz seems to be digging it also.
“I would not be in the U.S. Senate today if it were not for Governor Palin,” Cruz said in gratitude.
Cruz said Palin, like him, drives the mainstream media “bat-crap crazy” because she is “fearless,” “principled,” and “courageous” while the mainstream media wants conservatives to “shut up and accept defeat and be timid.”
Cruz also simply said, “Sarah Palin picks winners,” in reference to Palin’s early support of candidates like Sens. Marco Rubio (R-FL), Rand Paul (R-KY), Pat Toomey (R-PA), and governors like Nikki Haley (SC) and Susana Martinez (NM), and former Rep. Tim Scott (R-SC), who is now the state’s senator.”
The question is, has the tipping point been reached?
Are there just too many low-information dolts out looking for “free stuff”, who believe every word put out by the lib media?
I’m beginning to wonder if a conservative, or even a RINO, can win a national election, considering how the demographics in this country have changed.
Yes
Really good question.
I’m in that position as well. Palin or Cruz. Better be one of them or someone very much in that vein, or I’m fully through with the GOP. I’m already half-disengaged from the Party via the last election. All my life, I used to go down the ballot, checking each and every “R” candidate. But last year, I only voted for three or four solid pro-tea party names, leaving the rest blank. I can VERY easily imagine not even showing up at the polls in 2016. The GOP has really lost me. Their disgusting, backstabbing treatment of Palin was a watershed political development for me, ending my decades-long enthusiasm and support.
Yes. You need a poll so you don’t have to try to count yeses and noes.
Another RINO keeps dems in power. No way around that. The GOP has infuriated the base since the election. Another RINO is a landslide for the Dems. A Palin type conservative has a far better chance of recovering what the GOP threw away.
Holy cats, he is smokin’, isn’t he? Yow.
Its about 25 to 1 now. Bo point in counting. The PDS wing lost big.
Oh yes I vote for Sarah enthusiastically! Running to the poll booth in fact!
BTW I didn’t look at one single comment but I’m sure there are some of the ‘tone of her voice’ crowd out there and i will say this: Get a life! We have a country to save! Get over yourself
There may be a tipping point if they pass immigration reform that opens the door to tens of millions more. Free stuff people here might complain when the quantity of their free stuff dwindles.
