But if she wore an Arlen Specter mask at the rallys she might do some good.. and get JD.. elected..
McCain dislikes conservatives and only seeks to use them. If he is re-elected, with Sarah’s help, he will waste no time helping the Thug-in-Chief get Amnesty to Illegals passed. Sarah is now the enabler.
Wrong.
This McCain issue will fade into the background, no matter what happens.
The antiPalin psychopaths will need to find another argument, this one is on its way out.
Sarah’s a free agent and can do whatever she wants to at this point. I’d rather believe that she’s campaigning for McCain because she truly admires the man and agrees with his stances. That is the honorable explanation. If that is the case, it’s good that we are learning more about her before we invest too much of ourselves in her stock.
On the other hand, if the reason she is campaigning for the lying SOB is because she is only doing it out of some perceived “loyalty” and “indebtedness” to him, and that she doesn’t really agree with his stances - well then - I think that is dispicable and paints her as the kind of “professional politician” that I tend to despise.
As far as thanking Sarah for “lending us her name” in the Tea Party movement - the movement is independent of any one leader. In fact, the only time I have seen Sarah at a Tea Party event was at that convention in Tennessee. I didn’t see her in DC when the healthcare thing was going down. I’ve seen Michele Bachmann at several of them - on the front line of the battle, fighting the good fight, but not so much Sarah.
We had better get both of our feet planted firmly in the ground, because we’ve got a huge fight ahead of us & we can’t afford to be placing our faith in people that won’t deliver when it comes to crunch time.
Another Freeper, JohnHuang2 ( :^) ) also writes extraordinary essays and political commentary that just make ya want more and more.
You two should collaborate sometime..my guess..you both could write for Sarah when she takes the White House!!
Right, but you have to recognize what is useful and what isnt.
Palin is still very useful to the conservative agenda. This McCain thing will wither away and be gone while Palin continues her fight for conservatism.
Party support????? What about Scott Brown. He won on his smarts. Half the time I think the party (Rep) is the problem.
Exactly. John McCain picked Sarah Palin for one reason and one reason only. Political expediency! Without her, Obama would have trounced with a major landslide. And for you republicans who do not understand this go look at the history of what John McCain has done to the republican party with his backstabbing antics!
McCain hates conservatives! McCain, Snowe, Collins, and Graham all rinos need to go, or sit down and STFU!
There is no argument against Palin for supporting McCain, because there is no way to make the claim that if Palin hadnt done this transient little favor for McCain, the attacks against her wouldnt have been a lot worse. (Not to mention the blow to her conscience for betraying her promise.)
The argument falls flat.
“though I personally am not too impressed with J.D. Hayworth”
I find myself agreeing to some extent, although it’s based only on what I’ve seen in a handful of cable network interviews of Hayworth.
Yeah but the point is she ACCEPTED his offer to run with him in 2008, she could have said no, she did not have a gun put to her head, she said it was an honor to run with him, so was she a RINO then, where was the outrage then when she ran with him, is there really any difference between then and now..so I don’t get this phony outrage stuff(Not from you, just saying in general) like “How dare she support him” and “I am shocked shocked that she would do it” please, she ran with him in 2008, she said in her book she would always support him, what shock, anyone that read her book knew she would support him because she always said she would
If he is re-elected, he will help bring our country down totally and she should by now be able to see him for what he is.
I would rather write her off, sad as it is, and concentrate on getting this 0bamacare atrocity brought down and support real conservatives like Coburn, Ryan, Imhofe, Pence, DeMint, Bachmann, Chuck Devore (to unseat Boxer), Myrick, Steve King, Darrell Issa, JD Haworth, good grief there are lots of them!! We are not so bad off! Oh and Paul Braun of GA, too!
Haven’t you asserted that God is directly intervening in Sarah Palin’s life right now and that His hand is guiding her?
>> This McCain thing will wither away
I agree.
Thanks for the post & the ping.
Okay, John. Thank you.
Now go away forever.
There's an old saying that goes something like "You dance with the one which brought ya."
Hardly anyone on FR knew who Sarah Palin was before John McCain picked her to run as V.P. and the fact is we do owe him a thank-you for picking her. She's done more to unify the Conservative base across the Republican and Democrat parties than anyone else, and brought the Independents into the Tea Party movement. NO doubt that there wouldn't be as many people "awake" today without her.
Congress declared war on the American People last week by seizing control of our Health Care system. Sarah's leading us into battle. Some just need to cut her some slack. She knows exactly what she's doing.
You mean Ryan who endorsed McCain for president?
DeMint who endorsed Gramnesty?
Bachmann who endorsed McCain?
Hayworth who endorsed McCain?
I believe Inhofe and Pence also endorsed McCain.
Write off Palin and you will be forced to write off many, if not all, on your list.
