Here’s an idea my FRiend, instead of trotting out the usual ‘Rabs is a PaulBot, Rabs has horrible judgment’, etc., perhaps you could explain to us WHY Sarah Palin should automatically receive our support when her own words (quoted accurately in Rabs’ post #2) suggest that she is certainly NOT a consistent conservative?
Sure, she supported O’Donnell in Delaware, we all want O’Donnell to win. She has supported other conservatives, and likewise: we want them to win.
She has also supported abominable RINOs, to the exclusion of better qualified conservative candidates.
C’mon, anyone can call Rabs a ‘PaulBot’ (which isn’t even accurate these days), but why not address the legitimate question of Sarah Palin’s conservative credentials?
Any potential candidate that says that she ‘shares John McCain’s vision for America’ is no conservative in my book.
In last month’s primary in Arizona, she had the unmitigated gall to actually call McCain a “REAL CONSERVATIVE”, surely you don’t buy into that, now do you?
What it comes down to, is that if Sarah Palin is stupid enough to believe that John McCain is a conservative, then she has no business as the GOP nominee, and certainly no business as the President of the United States. On the other hand, if she fully understands that John McCain is NOT a conservative, that he does NOT represent the best interests of these United States, and yet she went ahead and lied in his behalf, annointing him as a conservative when she knew it wasn’t true, that would establish that she is a prevaricator, a manipulator, and someone not to be trusted when it comes to conservative values.
If you think I’m wrong about this, I’d appreciate you explaining it to me, because I believe at this juncture that Sarah Palin is a.) not qualified to serve as President, and b.) will lead the GOP to a 1964 style debacle if she is nominated.
