Palin needs to either get in or get out then shut her mouth. The party needs to stay united to win the battle. Ronald Reagan felt strongly about this principle. Don’t act like your a Reagan believer then break his rules.

“The party needs to stay united to win the battle.”

So you are for Crony Capitalism as long as its your Crony Capitalist?

Now is the time to muck out the barn. Its the Primary. No more political cashing in on the government from anybody! If the Republicans are just another flavor of cronyism, we will lose!

Why does she need to get or get out? Is this not America, where we have freedom and freedom of speech? Are there not millions of her supporters and millions more who might want incite from her? Oh, wait, you advocate that those who don't do as you wish to shut their mouth. Then you go on to state that the party needs to stay united? Hypocrite.

What really galls me is you, then, go on to bring Ronald Reagan into it. Reagan himself spoke out BEFORE announcing. He was a commentator on more than 600 radio stations. Guess what? Gov. Palin, like Gov. Reagan is a COMMENTATOR also. And, Reagan didn't announce until November 13th of '79. Remind us again, what month is this?

And, don't even lecture her (or anyone) about breaking Reagan's rules. Do you not even know his history as Governor? The scandal that his approving the abortion bill caused? Reagan broke his own rules, several times. Did you not watch or listen to the debates and stump speeches and editorials he penned? Anyone, put under a microscope, is flawed to some degree. It's not the mistakes or even appearance of mistakes that defines a true leader, it's the "footprints" that they leave behind. Reagan's have never been filled, but, I believe Gov. Palin might be able to grow into them, 'cause she certainly has the "feet" to do it with.

Gov. Palin was honest, temperate, principled and brave in her comments. Exactly the qualities I wish for in my POTUS. And, so that you know, unless and until she does announce a run, I'm in the Gov. Perry camp.

If we transposed Reagan's times to now, he would have stil been un-announced. But don't let history get in the way of your PDS...

The fear is strong in this thread...

Run, Sarah, RUN!!!

Bubba Clinton announced in October

Ronaldus Magnus announced in November.

The GOP is still trying to get Chubbie Christie to run.

Now some dingbats are operating on a double standard and attempting to force Sarah to announce now.

Reagans rules?

Ronald Reagan CPAC 1975

I don ‘t know about you, but I am impatient with those Republicans who after the last election rushed into print saying, "We must broaden the base of our party"--when what they meant was to fuzz up and blur even more the differences between ourselves and our opponents.
