There was never a bigger fan or supporter of Sarah Palin than I......until she politely told us she isn’t running.
But she still keeps “priming the pump” j - u - s - t enough to keep the diehards salivating and fantasising about her somehow still becoming the candidate.
Frankly, I’m getting a little hacked off with her cutesy little hints around the edges about different aspects of several different candidates, but lacking whatever attribute would be necessary to cause her to cut the coquettish teasing and take a stand and name a name.
At this stage of the game, and until she does something concrete; words cannot express how little I care what cute little publicity stunt she comes out with next to make it seem like she’s still a player! She bowed out of the race. Now I’d think more of her if she’d just cut the silliness and go be a housewife.
You know, I hate to agree, but that’s exactly how I feel about it. If she didn’t have the guts to lead, then she needs to get the heck out of the way. I also find myself frustrated by the things she says in these interviews, making these hints, making measured, calculated comments. Newt has been all over the place giving pure policy wonk speeches and interviews, and she still says that no candidate is running a solution driven campaign that is offering what Republicans want? I just don’t get it, and I find it all quite irritating to even think about.
She needs to settle the issue. I don’t really like the way she is playing her supporters... and her last few quotes on Fox were to the effect, if there was a brokered convention, she would be glad to help - that is not how an honest, forthright person goes about things... let the others tear each other up, tear each other down, go through the rigors, lies and defamation of the campaign trail, and then I’ll waltz in, and take it... I really don’t like that, and I don’t know what it means exactly about Sarah. Maybe I am reading too much into it.. it really hurts me to say anything negative about her...
Sarah is doing something concrete. She isn't trying to promote a candidate, she is promoting a set of ideals. Isn't that your goal, too? It's the agenda and ideas that will save our nation(or destroy it, depending on if we succeed or fail), not any individual candidate.
All Sarah Palin is trying to do is get the campaigns focused on the proper solutions. As it stands now, they aren't except for Newt and he is being marginalized by the Establishment Elites WHO DON'T WANT ANY CONCRETE SOLUTIONS that returns power to the citizens.
