My biggest complaint about Palin is that she failed to toss her hat into the ring and fight for the nomination. She missed a great opportunity. More than likely, she would be the nominee looking at the way things turned out.
OTOH why throw your hat in the ring, be attacked by all other candidates, when you can sit on the sideline and accept the nomination for VP at the convention, be rested, ready, reloaded and aiming.
IIRC Sarah did not endorse anyone for the primaries...Closest was Todd’s support of Newt.
SO is her lack of action an action to save her for a nomination with the eventual winner?
Can’t think of any action that would unite the right more. Left would split their gut.
Maybe we should all sent messages to the Romney campaign and demand/suggest it!
I appreciate what you say. As you know, I was never on the bandwagon much beyond Sarah’s magnificent convention speech.
It was a jolt, for me anyway, to see the nearly immediate plummet and downward spiral from magnificence to the total absence of magnificence, or even preparedness for a predictable and guaranteed media assault.
But, your initial comment wasn’t about Sarah, it was about the Left being at fault for the story. It seems to me they reported a fact. Given Palin’s own comments, she has not been invited to the convention.
Maybe she leaked this story, to tap the RINOS on the shoulder and remind them to get on the stick and initiate an invitation. Good for her if she did wrangle a story on it, which I doubt, but this a win for her.
She did say that about Condi, but in the next sentence said she would prefer someone with “respect for human life,” - that after Greta pointed out that Rice was moderately pro life.
My problem with Rice is her call as SoS for a Palestinian state without forcing Palestinians to accept Israel’s right to exist. She can be moderately pro-life but Roe v Wade isn’t changing anytime soon.
