“So who is closer to being clinically mentally retarded? Shep Smith or Greta? Or both?

She is so clueless and always has been. Without OJ and incredible good luck with regard to timing, we’d never know who she is. (lot of that going around at Fox come to think of it...)”

Greta is or was a Democrat. You could tell she liked Orrin, like she does Lindsey Graham and Karl Rive, because they are on her show a lot. I understand she might want to put on all views, but she has been actively promoting Hatch. Since she mostly does the show from Washington, she had plenty of segments taped from Orrin’s office. Now it seems she is basically endorsing him.

And she is defending Hatch as well. She is wrong on is record and misguided on him. So there was some bias when she asked her questions to Palin. It’s like Fox News is promoting the establishment guys.

Let’s be fair-Hatch has done an amazing job of getting conservatives on the bench in good times and bad.

And, ever since Bennett got his ass handed to him by the convention, Hatch has both talked and acted very conservative. Like he means it...

Hatch is one of the best arguments for term limits. When you have an yahoo from the other party occupying an office forever, that is bad enough. But when the yahoo is from your own party, its especially hard to stomach.

Palin is just as entrenched in the establishment as the rest.

On what liberal lie do you base that bs?

You really ought to quit holding back, and just go all-in with the complete package of left-wing attack points about Sarah Palin. You know you want to.

Stop being such a moderate, and stand on one side or the other.

When Hatch called into Hannity’s show near the first of this month (to garner Hannity’s endorsement), Hatch threw his support behind Romney (after endorsing Mitt for the ‘08 run, too)!

So, after everything Palin’s done for the conservative cause; after all the arrows she’s endured for the conservative cause (at great expense to her and family), some of you folks want to discount her for this one issue? Are F-ing serious!

So tell us all you purveyors of all that’s conservative and rightous througout the land...WTF HAVE YOU DONE THAT EVEN COMPARES TO WHAT PALIN’S DONE...OR HAS ENDURED?

Sorry, but If some of you folks can do it better than Palin, get your sorry a$$es off the computer and run for President. AND DON’T MAKE ONE ERROR, OR MIS-SPEAK!

It’s gonna take a lot more than this to shake support from Governor Palin.

Come on.

“Is Hatch not a Mitt supporter?”

Considering they are both Mormons, I would say that he probably is.

“Well MIchele Malkin doesn’t like Sarah or Rick so who is she cheerleading for?”
Not sure. I’d say a candidate but I could be wrong.

So? People on FreeRepublic have been having heart attacks over amnesty and Perry and Obama etc...and who do you think is one of the leading Republican Senators in favor of it? That’s right...the Senator Palin thinks is so invaluable. If he can use that experience to clear the way for Judicial picks he can use it for amnesty.

See this is what I’m talking about. They all sale us out on one issue or another. There is no conservative saint and people should stop acting like their candidate is the precious exception to the rule. I’m under no illusions as to the warts of the ones I support and I won’t defend the candidates I do support when they are wrong. At least not anymore.

As for Mark Levin his primary cause is the courts so I expect him to be more favorable to Hatch just as I expect Malkin to rip Perry since her #1 issue is amnesty.

P.S. Palin isn’t even talking of the courts. She is trying to sale him as a friend to the Tea Party on fiscal issues. That is an untrue, it is the mark of a pragmatic politician wanting to earn some chips they can call in later. It’s not the first time she’s done this and it won’t be the last as long as she wants to retain ties to the Republican party.

Sarah needs to stay away from Greta. The sisterly comfort sometimes can lead her astray.

Sometimes I think I can see Sarah’s logic, kinda...McNasty, Gramnasty and Hatch have a how many year toe hold in their ditricts? Most likely a lot of control of them. I think they call it, entrenched. The margin of getting rid of them is like hedging a bet. The odds are high.

By not going after them herself, and by not casting shadows herself, she is some what marginalizing them. They can’t come back and say she’s whacked out crazy if there is the least appearance that of support. They want that support. They think they’re using her, when in fact, she’s just not making herself a good target for them. She let’s the Tea Party go after them. There are ways you can give support to a Tea Party candidate that don’t put you out there as a target.

I know for a fact that a very conservative democrat did this. Used to email our group to put a finger on somebody and move some $ support to their opposition. It almost whacked me out when I realized the person was a democrat. This was early in the game when we were just getting to know candidates outside our own districts and looking at the national scene. I hadn’t a clue who some of these people were.

I support real conservatives. Apparently, you don’t.

Read up. You are delusional.

Malkin isn’t a left wing attacker. She talks the truth.

“Palin is just as entrenched in the establishment as the rest.”

IndyLiny hates Sarah Palin with such a strong passion that she has become totally irrational.

I think it boils down to Sarah's hot. Lindy's ....
