[Lazlo in PA]

It always has to circle back to PDS doesn’t it. I’m sure all the Palin supporters here are already digging through my posts looking for Palin hate. Feel free to. There will be little more than questioning whether she is running. My surprise is why you as a diehard supporter would circle the wagons on this. I don’t understand why everyone shrugs this off as silly when we wouldn’t accept it from others?

[Rational Thought]

I'm a Palin supporter. While I think it's was very poor judgment for Rebecca Mansour to use Twitter to convey her thoughts (as anyone should realize by now, electronic messaging is forever) and she likely will suffer the consequences, I really didn't read anything surprising.

Erickson is a self promoter (which is fine) and a regular on CNN’s John King show. Maybe it's just me, but I do have issues with any “Conservative” who is seemingly happy working for CNN or MSNBC.

The Romney Team has a history of backstabbing and the Palin’s daughter has at times seemed goofy. Nothing new here

I think another dynamic is involved here. I find it interesting that these messages ended up at the Daily Caller. Why not The Blaze, or Townhall, or some Left Wing site? Nope, ends up at the Daily Caller, a site which seems to have a rooting interest for a certain potential Republican Presidential candidate, IMO.

Double standards. What happens when people don't have principles, they have peeves.

Why wouldn't we accept this from others? Someone gave her opinion about some public figures. Who wouldn't we accept this from?
