“Not even Reagan was perfect” Rush 10-11-11

Reagan wouldn’t win in todays GOP.

[sloop]

both she and rush are overlooking bachmann

closest to conservative as far as i can tell

hell - even west sold out and voted to raise the debt ceiling for some phoney cuts in 20 years that will never happen

[IMissPresidentReagan]

This is a toughie because I don’t put much stock in endorsements, even Sarah’s. (She was early out the box on Ron’s son, Rand, in my state. Now, my disagreement with her didn’t mean I thought less of her; but her endorsement didn’t swing me.) I would like to think her followers, of which I’m one, are not “robots” and aren’t going to just follow whatever she says because she says so.

The only thing wrong with Cain is his 9-9-9 plan.

It is a tough line to walk. I want a conservative, but I don’t want to be 100%er, who demands someone agree with me on every single issue (which only sets potential candidates up for failure, imho.) .

Unfortunately, in the zeal to get a conservative, the nitpicking has caused some to eliminate really good candidates and left them standing alone; and has the potential to do so more.

[sloop]

he has another demerit - two state solution

[upsdriver]

What would it do if Sarah were to come out and endorse Cain today? Good, bad?

I look for Sarah Palin to be involved more in electing tea party congressmen, senators and governors.

I love Rush but when it comes to presidential politics, he is exasperating as hell.

Completely agree. He definitely holds Reagan's 11th commandment for just about all of them except McCain.

[IMissPresidentReagan]

That’s because the 11th commandment doesn’t apply to McLame. ;)

[Eagle of Liberty]

This is a toughie because I don’t put much stock in endorsements

I typically do not either for the frontrunners, but for someone like Cain who is making a move, a few big names may bring in some money and Cain is going to need at least a decent amount of money to convince some of the "I like Herman but" naysayers.

[IMissPresidentReagan]

I know Sarah had a net positive effect on McLame’s fundraising efforts, but not sure the impact she would have on Cain or anyone’s. It’s so hard for me to speak intelligently about this, because: A. I really like Sarah so I tend to think she balances the world on her pinky (j/k, but I do tend to think her impact on things are positive) and B. I don’t understand the mindset that waits for an endorsement to get behind someone. (It’s my failing. I’m just a very “blunt” person and if I like someone I support them, to hell with everyone else. lol) Typically, the “I like x, but...” crowd not only doesn’t really like x, but probably aren’t to gung ho to support x verbally much less financially despite endorsements; but that’s just my humble opinion. I am quite often wrong. :)

I agree, the 9-9-9 plan is very discouraging. I sent his team a note to ask why he abandoned the fairtax and went 9-9-9 and have not yet received an answer. I even suggested that they start posting on FR....

I don’t like having a sales tax, income tax and corporate tax. I want it all as one big sales tax that smacks every voter in the face with every purchase.

[skinkinthegrass]

thanks, for the ping. (again :)
