I would say they have pe*#s envy, but she's a girl.
But if she doesn't get the party fired up, than nothing will.

The stars may be aligning for a successful third party. Conservatives, both Rat and Pub, are both disatisfied with their parties. No doubt many so called moderates are also disatisfied with both parties. BO and the Rats are running the economy into the ground. As the PTB in the Pub party are dissing a political superstar, Sarah might as well go third party route. Most likely, whatever is left of the Rats and Pubs would merge into the elite statist party.
third party will be the only legit way to win in 2012
You said — I didn’t like this guy before and there is nothing recent to change my mind

Ummm..., well I would vote for Huckabee and Palin or Palin and Huckabee... LOL...
Given the history of third party movements,
anything that is really popular will be absorbed by
one of the major parties, nullifying the third party.
This is what is happening. All this talk of third parties is just a warning shot to the GOP. They will eventually embrace the issues and ideology of the popular third party, because they know it is mutual suicide to do otherwise.
And what good exacytly is it being in the RINO party?
Actually I think a third party, if big enough, can control the landscape. Lets say Palin gets 20% of the GOP, takes their balls right off.
Which is what the RINOs want to do to Conservatives.
Palin as spokesman would be nice ... put the moose back in Colonel Obama’s shorts.
Change the definition, and the perception,
of the battle to what it is in reality.
It’s elitists vs individualists.
There are elitists in both parties. Palin, in her offer to campaign for like-minded ‘rats and their subsequent total rejection, has outed the ‘rats as the party of elitists.
Beware of “former Governors of Arkansas” bearing gifts.
You said — I tend to agree with an earlier thread that argued that if Sarah goes third party it would almost guarantee zero a second term.

Yep! The H. Ross “The Boss” Perot syndrome... :-)
It’s a no-win scenario for conservatives.
Nope. I will defintely vote for Pali. I will sit out anything associated with Huckabee. All the folks who told me how bad it would be if Bush lost -— well it got that bad in a hurry with W. and the RINOs. Not going to do that one again
When I look at the Democrat Party (especially in my state) all I see are competing Trotskyite and Stalinist factions battling it out among each other. We haven’t had a conservative Democrat officeholder in LA since Sam Yorty was mayor 1961-1973.
The comments come days after Palin told the Washington Times she intends to spend her days out of the Alaska governor's mansion campaigning for both Republican and Democratic candidates whose ideas she supports.
Uhhh... I just read the Washington Times article again. She didn't say that. They worked really, really hard to imply it, though. Lazy journalism involves paraphrasing other lazy journalists.
Well, did you vote for Palin or did you vote for McCain... LOL...
I would prefer to see Mitt Romney walk off into third party oblivion.
I'm about as happy with abandoning it as making it better. If we don't get a real conservative as the nominee this time. I will abandon it. And I sure don't consider Huckabee to be the one to help lead the RINOS out of the wilderness. If Sarah leaves the republican party, it will crash and burn. Perhaps, out of the ashes, a conservative party can rise up. As it stands right now, I (and most conservatives) won't move left, and the liberals won't move right. That kind of leaves it BROKE...
I was waiting for someone to answer that as well. She hasn't made all that many statements and she has been very careful to sidestep any such talk from what I have seen. Unless Governor Huckabee can come up with a direct quote this is a political maneuver known as 'slipping the knife in smoothly.'
Huckabee is a typical RINO. Like the Gipper said, he didn’t leave the dem party...it left him.
Easy. I voted for Palin for president as a write in. So effectively I sat this one out
