The europeans accepted him because he was “of color” and the campaign served free beer and sausages. Now they have neighborhoods full of muslims who want them dead.

"palin aint no reagan.

maybe after the coming decade of slapping about the head and face..."

First thing, the names Palin and Reagan need to be capitalized. Have you learned to use the "shift" key? We are not talking about gum drops.

When you write "slapping about the head and face," you speak of a form a misogyny that is prevalent in the Left's attacks on Sarah Palin. The "slapping about the head and face" is an image of female abuse and it certainly describes in a political sense, the abuse of Sarah Palin, which demands that women like her be put in subordinate positions with limited access to power and decision making.

Have you noticed that only women who maintain the male status quo and the Marxist agenda are allowed access to power on the Left? Should we sit on our hands as the Left is allowed to project political abuse like they are running rampant in a political Abu Ghraib prison? No, we should not tolerate this abuse.

Huckabee, Pawlentry Mith(?),are retreads. DeMint, Pence, Palin, Bachmann are fresh with good conservative ideas. I have not made up my mind.

The muslim in the whitehouse didn’t even finish his term in the Il senate, not even half way through it. He quit the senate and began running for the presidency.

“The one characteristic that Governor Palin has more than all the rest, is an unstoppable fighting spirit.”

And that - more than ANY of the rest of them - makes her the winner.

None of the rest come anywhere close.

Not one.

It was “that fighting spirit within” that was so obvious with Reagan.

That was why he won.

And why she will, too.

Biden was born in Scranton, Pennsylvania. Pennsylvania is his native state.

Palin is Reagan to the third power. She did twice as much as Governor as he did, and she did it in half the time. Get real.

phobia-dude - "Dr. Paul raised more money, created more enthusiasm last election . . ."

ansel12 - Than what, you didn't finish the thought, his previous ridiculous tries to get someone to vote for him?

Howard Dean, maybe? (before "the scream"). ;^)

If Ron Paul was the best leader since Ben, he would be leading and not just a back bencher.

His foreign policy views are embarrassing and disqualify him from any higher office.

The war wing hates Paul.

You might be on the wrong board.

What a great article! Thank you so much for posting it.

Late at night, on November 2 after the elections have been decided, I have my new tagline all set to go. I think it’s very appropriate.

“First they ignore you, then they ridicule you, then they fight you, then you win.”

— Mahatma Gandhi

I’m sure a great many foreigners are puzzled by things such as the Tea Party and general right-wing thoughts.

The Tea party now has several international spin-offs including Australia, UK and others.
