Someone is acknowledging that the only chance for the GOP to win is to have Palin on the ticket?

I agree that that gives them a "chance", but look what happened the last time when the top of the ticket wasn't any good.

And, frankly, I don't care how good Jeb may or may not be, he suffers from Bad Last Name. And there's only one Last Name that could be worse (and she'll be running against him).

I love the woman...but she is not going to be elected.

I agree. Her days in elective office are behind her. Palin excels at working behind the scenes and rallying the troops.

As for Bush? Um, no. The GOP needs new blood. I'm really wanting to rally behind Senator Cruz. It seems that I agree with every position he takes.

Love her? LOL You are one of the high-end PDSers. She hasn't been borked at all.

Watch the next year or so -- you will see just how "borked" she is.

In some ways GHWB also “danquayled” Dan Quayle. Those Bushes were outraged when Dan tried to run in 1999/2000. I think he had already withdrawn before 2000.

I will kick that off with 1000 bucks that don’t come real easy as of late so all you need to come up with is 1999000

No that is where you are wrong.

There is a big money which wants amnesty. Big GOP money wants amnesty.

But there is a huge swath of the GOP, also a big supply of money which has been crowded out, and is not currently donating.

THOSE are the people I am referring to.

Palin has those people, they are loyal, and they’ll follow her anywhere.

Even to a new party.

Myself included.

I am currently in the GOP, but will switch parties if Palin does.

I am getting mighty tired of Rove.

I am tired of Amnesty. I am tired of American jobs going to China.

But most of all, I am enthused by Palin.

She has said nothing, to anyone, as long as I have known about here - to change my very strong opinion of her.

Run Sarah.

Mr. Palin, stand beside your strong and beautiful wife, and be with her.

For America.

I’ll do what I can personally, but one of my skills is bundling, which has got a bad name recently. And I’ll talk to you about that donation when she declares. Hahahaha!

If there is a Bush involved, I’m staying home.

That takes a machine and it takes planning way ahead, well, unless you are a Bush or a Clinton.

Spoken like a true elitist. A machine? Yea, the two Statist Party machines have almost destroyed this Republic.

If Sarah opts for a true Second Party, then I and millions of others will be on board 1000%....

Hopefully she can help destroy the destructive GOP-e and their dying party: RINOpublican.

.I love the woman...but she is not going to be elected.....sure, she’s been borked...but it is what it is...

I honestly will not vote for a top ticket if it is not conservative. I'll vote for Palin, not for bush period.

So that ticket just doesn't work.

I have no problem with a third party at this point, but don’t get upset if things go south.

If a Bush or Rubio is on a ticket, I will probably stay home.

But I also know if I vote 3rd party, I might feel good, but I will have to accept that that split will be futile at this time.

Our best chance is to win over many young people. That is the task at hand.

I am far from an elitist. I am a realist. Reagan was a realist. He planned ahead, way ahead. He took a couple losses and planned. That is the only way to beat them. You don’t beat them with good feelings.

Yes, the dumber the idea, the more the sheeple will applaud it.

How did Reagan plan, considering his choices of GHWB, O’Connor, Kennedy, James A. Baker, III???

I would accept the other way around but I’d prefer Cruz/Palin or Palin/Cruz.
