San Diego – Tijuana border I live 20 miles north of the largest and busiest border crossing in the world. Another reason I want Palin for President. She gets it.

You pegged it perfectly.
“No, I don’t worship anyone, but I do support her, and I don’t understand why you hate her so much. Not agreeing with her I get, but you sound like you really hate the woman, what gives?”
Sarah, The worst I ever said about Palin is that I don’t trust her. I never said I hated her, or anything remotely like it. I appreciate your efforts to find the links. The last one ....I can’t get the video to work, but I will keep trying.
As I pointed out in my earlier post, she might have been caught off guard and just gave a “nice” answer. We don't know if she is going to campaign for McCain, but you must feel good tearing her apart! The email I posted indicates she is going to be campaigning for conservatives. Perhaps if you cared to read my post you would've known this.
That's politics for you. If she disparages McCain, it's a story. If she says nothing, it's a story. And if she just says something nice, it's a story. Some people are impossible to please - it speaks volumes about them, and less about Sarah Palin.
Post 159. Her direct words about illegals.
You are a Conservative Republican
you are not an anti war frned of the Code Pinko crowd.
That is what makes you a target.
Also, if she takes the nomination, she will need support from the center (actually center/left with McCain) and she's smart to keep that relationship as good as possible.
If we don't keep them honest, Who will?? Democrats??? Who kept Bush honest? Levin? Hannity? The Bush-bots here?
I am loving democrats suffering now, I mean REALLY loving it. But unfortunately that could only happen because Republicans lost.
Here's one response I got today: This is a two party Country, get use to it. If you don’t want to work within the Republican Party who has a majority of Conservatives, then join the democrats, supporting a third party candidate is the same thing. As for Glenn Beck, he uses comments and information from others without attribute and is why many Conservatives are fed up with him. Beck’s crap that Democrats and Republicans are all alike is his shtik to push his propaganda. If he thinks Sarah Palin, Jim DeMint etc, Republicans and Obama, Harry Reid Democrats are the same which he states by his comment, he proves he is a dry drunk and emotional basket case who should go back to being a DJ and stop the anti war, Libertarian propaganda.

Firstly those expressing surprise at Palin supporting McCain aren’t real Palin supporters that have listened/read what she has said/written. She has consistently said she respects him, admires him, and Palin has donated to his reelection fund and is positive about him in her book.
She admires him, and has a sense of loyality to him because he selected her as his VP. What is wrong with that?
But just as importantly, although Palin can win the nomination in 2011 without the Republican establishment, it will be far far harder without any political support, and with even more enemies.
Dissing Mccain/campaigning against Mccain would be a huge blow to her support among certain elements in the political class, and many voters (both republican and otherwise).
It looks bad. No loyalty. No gratitude, and really no sense.
Sorry, it’s a no-brainer, and it is based on loyalty and gratitude.

If that is the video you can’t view..just go to that link and scroll down(I believe its the 2nd link) you can click either audio or video..you really dont need the video since its just Rusty talking, Sarah is not in the room
In not going to argue Illegal Immigration policy with you.
We have 20 to 35 million illegals in our nation today. If they get a pathway, then they’ll be able to bring family members over. Each of then will bring an average of four or five over.
You should be able to understand we’re talking about massive numbers here, and that’s not the end of it.
Getting the border under control is a catch phase that hides a multitude of problems. Just one of them is a new relaxed green card that that could easily see up to 2 million people allowed into the nation each year legally, never to leave.
Vague platitudes are not going to suffice here. I want specifics. Sarah won’t be able to go to school on McCain and glide through on this.
You can twirl on that comment.
She is damned if she does and damned if she doesn’t. Just imagine if she had come out and said that she supports JD Hayworth, just imagine what people would say then “Oh she is so ungrateful, McCain put her name on the map and now she disses him” but when she supports him(Which DUH, I mean seriously, anyone with half a brain knew she would support McCain by just reading her book alone) she gets trashed. Nothing she can do will satisfy everyone. I don’t like McCain either, but she will support him because she admires him(as a war hero) her loyalty to him is strong and that is just the way it is
Oh, it's support alright.
The exact quote:
"I adore John McCain, support him 100 percent and will do everything I can to support his reelection."
Now, if she wants to be "loyal," that's fine, as long as she doesn't let herself get blinded by "loyalty" that she does something stupid...like openly support a RINO, especially one like McCain who is one of the worst. The best she could have done was stay quiet; instead she chose to send McCain a contribution for BOTH the primary AND the general and now...this particular shenanigan.
Either she supports McCain (!) or she is blinded by loyalty; in either case, it's a liability if she is unwilling or unable to call out traitors like McCain.
Now, as for the links to the transcripts from Rush and the gentleman from Oregon, thanks to both of you. I am going to take back the amnesty charge and hold it as "I don't know, I need more clarification on her take on the matter" for the time being. If she says something stupid on the matter, then we'll discuss it as the need arises.
The remaining two reasons relating to her support for McCain, however, stand.
I guess we have to wait and see.

Yea...she’s between a rock and a hard place...hope she chooses the RIGHT place.
It would be tough for her not to support him, in spite of her email.
Too late. Her PAC already fed money to McCain's primary and general election accounts.
So far she hasn’t shown that she gets it, and your blind support shows you don’t either. I don’t care where you live.
