Being a conservative does not require support for Sarah Palin (who, by the way has not even announced if she is running in 2010), anymore than being a conservative in 2008 required supporting McCain in the primaries. This is our little spot on the web where we vigorously debate the merits of those who would like to get the GOP nomination. Many on FR supported Fred Thompson early on in 2008. There were a few Romney supporters, even a few Rudy fans, lots of McCainiacs, a small but vocal Ron Paul minority.
Expect much of the same from here on out. We ARE the vetting process, or at least a key component of it. It's far too early, and Palin is still (in my opinion) far too unknown as to her beliefs to require unreserved support, as you are trying to enforce.
Lighten up. It's a long way till November 2012!
Nobody has, you know that so why post it, and your man is the moderate Tim Pawlenty isn't he?
