Did you donate to SarahPAC? McCain, Graham and Hatch want to thank you...
Texas for Sarah Palin | 8-28-09 | Texas for Sarah Palin

Loved this...

"While some conservatives are sure to be disappointed by the donations to two pols they consider to be Vichy Republicans, the relative few who will be genuinely outraged probably weren't that firmly entrenched in the Palin camp to begin with. On the other side of the coin, the donations will quite likely sit well with moderates and independents, two demographic groups which Sarah Palin knows she must improve her standing with in order to win a general election."

So if you are against helping RINO's get reelected, you "probably weren't that firmly entrenched in the Palin camp to begin with".

One has to laugh...har har.

From Jonathan Allen’s Notepad at CQ Politics:

“Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin’s SarahPAC has donated money to the campaigns of Sens. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina and Orrin Hatch of Utah, as well as to Republican Ohio Senate candidate Rob Portman, according to a Friday filing with the Federal Election Commission.”

“The exact amounts of the contributions were not reported, but Palin had to list the names of candidates she had financially supported to make SarahPAC a bona fide political action committee.”

It had already been widely reported that SarahPAC contributed to Senators John McCain and Lisa Murkowski. Former Governor Palin’s PAC recently had to reduce its donations to each those campaigns from $5,000 each to $4,800 each in order to qualify as a “multi-candidate” political action committee, but the technicality has now been satisfied:

I have never given a dime to any campaign save for the money given out by the NRA political victory fund that I give to around election time during presidential election seasons and mid year elections.

other than that....I vote..that is my job as a citizen in a constitutional republic.

Graham and McCain helped SarahPAC get started. The money from SarahPAC was payback to them.

Similar to paying off a bank loan.

Everyone who donated to SarahPAC already know about Sarah respect for Mccain. Its unrealistic for ppl to expect Palin to turn on Mccain. It goes against her character

If McCain and Graham don’t IMMEDIATELY leave the GOP and go Third Party, then they’re nothing but RINOs!!1!!!

Oh wait, they already are RINOs. Nevermind.

This just sounds like one more “I’ll make you hate Palin” thread.

I’m still not voting for Romney.

You and the haters have screamed that Sarah needs to broaden her base, and when she does (in your eyes by misinterpreting a loan payback as "donating") you still scream bloody murder?

I wish I could put it into words but I’m not that eloquent.

The strategy we see coming from the “moderates” and left is to find an issue that Palin supports but many of her supporters are likely to oppose. Then they keep reminding us of it in hopes that we’ll be the single issue voters they accuse us of being and we’ll dump our support of her. Then by some kind of magic, they hope we’ll go to someone even more moderate like a bunch of morons.

These folks have a serious case of cranial-rectal impaction.

Looks to me like you’re walking on thin ice with the FR boss, Bob. Digging up old news to try and stir the pot is not going to impress anyone here.

100% correct sir! And it appears to be a Romneyite strategy, one which is going poof in yet another epic fail from the RINO element.
