~25 to 30% of the population is so smitten and brainwashed by Obama, and/or so dedicated to being a leech on society, that they’d vote for a Democrat even if he wore a Klan hood to campaign rallys. So once you consider that un-changeable bloc, Obama only needs to win a third of the remaining vote.
The GOP needs a DAMN GOOD candidate.
Very funny and as much as I hate to admit it, my friends are very taxing at times! No pun intended!
Christine O’Donnell is no Sarah Palin.
I’ll give you that, but the basics are still there - i.e., she’s nowhere near as electable as her supporters think she is.
20% unemployment is depression era unemployment. These people have families and friends who know they’re unemployed and that there are no jobs available. I don’t care how many leeches there are on current society. There are enough Americans left that realize the current admin isn’t cutting it. America needs a whirlwind. Palin is it.
“...when Palin resigned her position as Governor she lost them 100%, no coming back.”
No coming back, my arse. They never were there to start with, so it’s a fake argument!

“Ok I’m going to make a prediction (not that anyone cares).
Palin, Bachman, Cain, and Romney are going to run. Conservatives are going to panic because they are afraid their vote is going to splinter and give the nomination to Romney.
The GOP establishment likes like Rove are going to “save the day” and out will come governor goodhair Rick Perry.
He will get the nomination and beat bozo, and he will disappoint us, but at least keep America from going over the cliff.
I know its a lot to stomach, but I just have that feeling.
Or maybe I shouldn’t eat Taco Bell anymore.”
Your prediction is what I call ‘The Rosy Scenario’.
And Taco Bell is crap, anyway. Binning behind a restaurant would be better eating.
Bullcrap,, SO you opine that some Obama voters were possibly interested in Sarah, until she resigned? After THEY hounded her with a new ethics lawsuit every week?
They also sued her for raising money for her legal defense and insisted she pay it out of her pocket.
Im glad she resigned. It freed her to do what she’s doing now. Imagine the screeching from “your friends” if she started the tour while still Governor. Everytime she left Alaska, they would screech that she wasn’t doing her job back home.
We know the game,,, and your Obama friends were NEVER going to vote for her. She’s the polar opposite of him,,,troll.
I'd NEVER have a "friend" who was a democRAT!
But, that's just me.....
I don’t know that much about you GizzyGirl, but from your postings, DesertRhino is right... You are a troll.
My friends are moderate, and I’m not out here to cause a stir, I just posted a sincere comment. I love Sarah Palin and I personally hope she runs as I’d vote for her in a heartbeat, but some of my friends, who honestly do not like Obama or his hope and change anymore will not go her way. I’ll do all I can to convince them otherwise if she joins the race and gets our nomination, but I won’t win. Maybe as time goes by and listening to me talk about the many many things I’ve learned by being here might help, but I stand by my comment. They weren’t laughing and they weren’t cheering, they just could not see past the fact that she didn’t stay and finish what her state elected her to do. My truth is that I’m highly motivated by every speech Sarah offers so don’t beat me up, but we need the moderate voters and I was simply agreeing with another post that they will not come to Sarah.
Intrade bet for Palin to declare presidential run before Dec 31, 2011.................

If you are pushing Cain then you are going about it wrong.
It seems that you are trying to do for Cain what pissant did for Hunter, manage to turn a lot of his fans against him by attacking the top tier conservative, Governor Palin.
Hunter was my congressman, a man that I had loved for decades, but after a year or so of pissant attacking Palin, it took everything I had not to start dismantling his Duncan Hunter fantasy.
I hope that you don’t force Palin supporters that also like Cain, to get involved in a pissing contest with you, you won’t like the effect on Cain and it won’t serve conservatism.
No honey, it’s not the Fourth of July yet; it’s just the sound of liberals heads exploding.
If FreeRepublic had been around in 1979, I’m sure there’d have been people here backing Lowell Weicker, Poppy Bush, Bob Dole and even John Anderson, because Ronald Reagan was clearly unelectable.
Why do you call it the “Rosy scenario”?
And yes, IMO Taco Bell is crap.
Never doing that again.
Why do you call it the “Rosy scenario”?

Because it assumes the Republican wins, rather than a re-elected Obama.
Looking forward to the bus tour. It would be fitting if she’d announce at a battlefield actually. Don’t know when, but she’s up for it and her strength and tenacity are admirable. Our country is lucky to have such a fearless woman in the mold of a Margaret Thatcher. She’s going to shake it up and they know it.
