I understand most Palin supporters have already handed her the '12 nomination, but a primary can be unpredictable and bruising. My question is, what will you do if for some reason Sarah does not win the '12 pub nomination? Stay home, vote 3rd party or support the nominee (if it is one of todays potential but established candidates)?
This is a "what if" question. If you don't have the capacity to contemplate a Palin primary loss then please find another thread on which to slobber and slander (although I seriously doubt this request will be honored).
What about Pawlenty or Jindhal?
“Our #1 goal is to send Obama and his cronies packing”
I agree 100%. All I care about is seeing him lose that election. I will vote for anyone who opposes him but I prefer Palin. You know if Obama loses he will basically never concede. He’ll have to be Honduras-ized.
Now what would you do, considering, in all likelihood, she would not endorse your candidate of choice?
I’m not sitting out(I’m in California, this state goes to Obama no matter what) but I am not going to let the media dictate who we vote for. They want Huckabee and Romney for a reason. They keep on saying how they are so popular in the Republican party. They keep on saying how great they are, why. Does the media all of a sudden give a damn about the Republican party. Of course not
Let’s see:
Reagan ran three times before prevailing so we just keep propping her up until we get what we want.
There's a reason commonsense is so named.
Let’s do this, if Sarah loses and you can’t support any of the established potential nominees, who would you support?
Be right back. Going to look for examples.....
If the Republicans put another RINO up then I’ll be sitting out 2012. And I’m not a “Palin supporter”.
I’m just sick and tired of voting for progressives with an “R” next to their name.
Forget which way CA goes. I’m in CA too but you need to get to the polls. Will you stay home on election day if Huckabee or Romney are on top of the ticket?
She’s got several years to get her philosophy out to the rest of the USA and the world WITHOUT the filter of the MSM—I think she’s off to a cracking start, don’t you? :-)
“This is a “what if” question.”
So is this;
What if chickens had lips instead of beaks. Would they whistle instead of cluck?
If Sarah Palin wants to run, she’ll win.
If for some reason she doesn’t run, then I’ll go with whoever she supports.
WE THE PEOPLE are going to choose our 2010 and 2012 Candidates and the Media is going to be spinning in their seats. We let them choose McCain for us without realizing what was going on. Or most of us, it seems. Never again.
We will NOT let the Media choose our Candidates in the Future.
And Bob J, you can tell that your buddies over on HuffiePost.
It depends on who it is, Bob. I don’t hitch up to any single politician to the exclusion of all others. As things stand today, three years before 2012 election, I like Sarah. I liked her before McCain (the Arrogant Loser) picked her for VP.
You are correct, but I hold no hope of that stopping the spam.
I’ll do what I’ve said I would do and hace been doing for a long time.
Work hard in the priamary to get my candidate elected and then support whoever does win.
Huckabee I would consider it. I don’t know enough about him to make a decision. Romney, absolutely not. All I need to know about him is RomneyCare, so no I would not vote for him
My first Presidential election was in 1956. I voted for the lesser of the two evils then and my choices haven’t been much better since. The next election (2012) may well be my last and I’ll be damned if I’ll go down that “lesser-of-two-evils” road again. I will vote for Sarah and I hope she’s on the ticket. If she’s not then most will think I’ve thrown my vote away. I alone will know that I’ve finally voted my conscience as the founders thought we should.
I don’t intend to support any of the namby-pamby, wishy-washy, corrupt lying republicans.
If they don’t nominate a decent, good, honest person with a will to fight, then they will lose, and they will deserve to lose, because they have learned nothing from the utter and crushing defeat in 2008.
If they nominate Palin, great!
If they nominate Romney, or Huckleberry, or Pawlenty, or Jeb Bush, OR PRETTY MUCH ANYONE ELSE WITHIN THE PARTY BESIDES BACHMANN, then say hello to four more years of Obama.
