It is so pervasive and so continuous that it cant be rogue people doing it without the understanding and encouragement from the candidate herself, a Palin supporter in Iowa told RCP. The entire Bachmann team has gone around the state saying Palin is a lightweight and a quitter and saying that Sarahs about to endorse Michele. Bachmanns campaign is radioactively dirty. They are shameless.
I've heard shameless smack come from Palin's supporters as well as supporters of each and every candidate. Unfortunately, that's the nature of politics. This OP is more of the same partisan smack talk and should be regarded as such.

He is giving his OPINION which corresponded with mine when Rollins trashed Sarah. If Sarah doesn’t run, I don’t know if I will support Michelle or even if she will still be in play in the Florida primaries.

Ohhh secondhand whisper campaign to start a secret war.
Seriously? Is this the narrative? That's the way I see it. It's the old, "Let's you and him fight" ploy. Only now it's "her". :)

This is pure bs. Palin is getting very annoying lately. She knows if she is going to run or not, and its about time she said so. Patience Grasshopper. :)

You forgot to mention Jew, in your list.
I’ve read him from the beginning of his blogging days. He is the real deal, as far as I’m concerned, and I’m as skeptical of lawyers as they come. Mr. Jacobson is to the right of Glenn Reynolds (the Instapundit). He is a big fan of SP, as odd as that seems for his demographic.

Sounds about right to me , we are talking about Ed Rollins , a sleazy operative. The fact that Bachmann hired him should give everyone pause. He operates like this , Bachmann knew it when she hired him. She sold her soul to hire Rollins because he knows how to win in IA , he just doesn't know how to win much anywhere else.

More indecisive Mrs. Palin whine. For a non candidate who has had almost 3 years to change the minds of people, she has spent very little actually doing it. Just talk.
It is always the pity party. Yuck!
She maybe could just grow up and compete with others.
That would be the way to show what you have.

Republicans cannot possibly win by destroying each other. Do not fall for it. The person every Republican has to defeat is Obama, the worst president in history. Keep the objective in mind at all times.

No, instead this is a really bad move by the Palin supporters. Governor Palin would be angry and embarrassed to be associated with these sort of political tactics. Her supporters would be wise to stop using them
As someone who has been involved in GOP Party politics for over 30 years, I have some advice for all the Candidates supporters.
As Pawlenty learned this week, Republican voters are not interested in the least in fighting with their allies. We all know who the real enemies are and don't take kindly to those who do the Dems PR work for them.
Trash talking the other candidate then going to their supporters later asking them to support your candidate is a sure fail strategy. The way to win the Republicans and Conservatives voters is to tell them why YOUR candidate should be chosen.

Trash talking the other guy only hurts your chosen candidate, you do not build anything by tearing down everyone else.

I saw Bachman when she was asked the question about submitting to her husband. She looked like she had been slapped across the face with a wet rag. I think the question was totally out of line and I wish she had slapped that right back at the person who asked her. She was not there to talk about her relationship with her husband!

No one is asking you to sing Kumbya, we do have some suggestions on how to be effective in GOP politics.

I have not researched this Jacobson yet, but my instinct is that a Cornell law clinic professor does not harbor the best intentions for any conservatives or their interests.Well, tens of thousands of the rest of us have been reading him for well over a year now. He's become one of the most popular conservative bloggers around. Research all you want -- but just reading his blog archives will tell you what you want to know.
