Probably too soon to say. I’ve been hoping that some good conservatives are working behind the scenes, and will come up with a candidate that we can get behind.
Sarah Palin is an obvious name, either as organizer or as candidate, but she certainly won’t say anything at this stage. She did speak up once, when she threw her support behind Newt, but unfortunately Newt just couldn’t seem to cut it, after some initial success.
The difficulty is that, as we’ve seen on numerous threads for the past month, conservatives are divided on what they want, and the media have been pretty successful at playing on those divisions. This won’t work unless the conservatives can be united behind one candidate.
But I don’t see much choice. The Republican party has been getting worse and worse for the past 50 years, with the exception of Reagan, who pushed his way in against the wishes of the party establishment. Romney is by far the worst choice they have ever made. He is very little better than the Communist Muslim illegal Obama.
Romney wrecked Massachusetts worse than any Democrat governors had been able to do, putting through both gay marriage and Romneycare which his Dem predecessors had failed to do. And he did zero to fix the Mass. economy, while appointing flaming liberal judges to the courts.
We just can’t afford to go through this corrupt GOP mess yet again, whether Romney wins or loses. It’s not that they are really the stupid party. They have become the corrupt party. They would far rather lose than let someone into the White House who might try to straighten things out.
Sarah Palin will be supporting and campaigning for Romney. She has already said she is ABO. She has already very clearly said no to a 3rd party bid since she believes it would just help Hussein win a 2nd term. She has already said it is absolutely vital to defeat Obama. Her position on this is not a mystery. Some people may believe that makes her "establishment", but I think that is silly. Palin will support the Republican nominee just like Newt, Perry, Cain, Cheney, Rush, Levin, Hannity, Beck, etc, etc, etc, etc, etc, etc. The idea that we should not support the GOP nominee is simply not held by the overwhelming majority of conservative leaders. 90%+ of conservatives are going to listen to and agree with Palin, Rush, Cheney, etc, and vote for Romney.
