I was making a pun (a pretty good one, I think, considering it was totally spontaneous)
I just looked up who EV was, never having noticed his name before: yeah, looks like he’s into self-promotion of an indirect sort, kinda like he wants you to click on his name and go to his AIP/FR homepage and get seduced/
I avoid labelling anyone a troll, and I know pissant from having read many hundreds of his posts/replies. He’s just opinionated, like most here on FR.
On the “who will be the nominee” front, it’s been clear to me for a LONG time, that the ONE person that gets all the flak from every conceivable direction, of course, is the person who’s got the broadest and strongest appeal, and that’s Sarah Palin. Both the Left and the RINOs should know it by now: the more you attack her, even in ‘subtle’ ways, the more popular she becomes, and the more likely you will be facing a VERY formidable candidate about a year from now, when all the dust settles. It’s her inner strength and convictions that carries her forward, and growing numbers of people have come to respect that, even if sometimes grudgingly, above all else.
