Once they figure it out, things are going to get extremely ugly.”
One thing that true, lifelong conservatives know deep down inside: NO politician (literally) is worth getting too excited over. Yes, some are much better than others, and some are great. Reagan was truly great. But even RR was not perfect, and conservatives know both by intuition and experience, that you have to have REALISTIC expectations from ALL politicians. Now matter how conservative a politician is, he/she is still...a politician. Yes, we have to help the better ones and we have to try to defeat every Democrat, all the time. But seriously. A cult of personality in any respect is not something that should EVER be on any conservative’s radar!
I agree, but it is for the Palin fanatics. Seriously, read C4P sometime. The place is like some sort of twisted house of Sarah worship. She can literally do no wrong with most of these people, and anyone questioning anything about her or her supposed genius (and as yet to be seen) campaign strategy is met with intense hostility and rage. It'll remind you that, sadly, people of all ideologies are capable of sliding into the cult of personality trap. You'd hope more from conservatives, but nope, human nature is what it is and even folks on our side are susceptible to it.
