I just want to take a moment to thank so many on this thread for providing some comic relief today. I like Palin well enough, but was always taken aback by the emotional level of support from many of her supporters. You have not let me down.

One of my favs: "I'm so disappointed and I don't know why". May I recommend a trip to Wall Street?

The many comments about how "America is OVER!" (because Palin is not running). Seriously? She is the ONLY hope for America?

Other LOLz came from comments like: "we bought her books, and, and, supported her n' stuff! She OWES us!" Send her an invoice.

"Her making this announcement without a pre-announcement VIOLATES TRADITION! and I'm real mad about that. Oh my gosh, I did an internet search and you are right! This is worse that not having Turkey on Thanksgiving!

She... she... *snif* said she cares about America! *snerf* and THEN she does THIS?!? BWWWWAAAHHH-HA-HA! (pool forms)

I recall a discussion a while back where a RATIONAL Palin supporter recommended I read more about her background. I don't recall who that Freeper was, but I owe the person a debt. I did my homework, and was pleasantly surprised to find her record of experience and accomplishment is very good.

But now we know - Palin is out. No one needs to take time again to write about how smart and shrewd she is for waiting until now to announce! And if we want to see an actual conservative receive the nomination it is a good idea to support one. For those who complain that Cain doesn't have enough experience go read about him, because you obviously haven't.

For those who complain that he does not have government experience I reply - Thank God!

You don't like Cain? Fine. Pick someone and support 'em. But please stop acting like the FR equivalent of what DU posters will be doing on November 7th of 2012.

(...and let the flames begin...)

Reasonable post—I was a big Palin fan too but now that she is out I suspect the sun will still rise tomorrow.
And like the vast majority of Palin people on FR,I'm getting on the Cain train.

Now look for the PDS nuts to become CDS nuts—heck it's already started.

Well said.

Yours is the post of the day.

Enough with the drama.
