ABC News aired part of an exclusive interview with former Vice President Dick Cheney this morning, in which Cheney admitted that the choice of Sarah Palin for vice president in 2008 was a mistake.
Liz Cheney took to Twitter to voice her disagreement with her father and her overwhelming support for Palin. Cheney has been very supportive of Palin since her 2008 nomination, and tweeted her dissent with her father earlier today, arguing that Palin is more qualified than the current president and vice president.

The only conservative leader I see Taking on the Republican establishment is brave MBachmann. Your leader of fools (the cultists) chose a cushy $$$ FNC job over taking on Romney in the primary. That reality still apparently has not sunk in. We will never know if she would have beat him because she wasn't willing to try. It interfered with her personal schedule.
I bet she is laughing at your endless pleas for her to run.
These are what I call playground threads. They are for having fun on. They are about nothing to begin with.;
How about that stuff about the ‘ all knowing seer or prophet’ ? You see any other PDSers posting lines like that ?
” How about that stuff about the all knowing seer or prophet ? “
all-knowing seer for sure.....prophet? Maybe : )
I should have included Bachmann along with Sowell. Both are top notch. I was for Bachmann for POTUS. When she failed to take , there was nobody left. Cain was okay too. I still believe the GOPe took Cain out. They were scared to death of him, because they could NEVER control him. He was his own man, as Bachmann was her own woman.
Actually this guy kicks butt more than either.
Well he seemed like he could be a good one to go up against Obama for a while. I was enthused, but then who was the alternative?
When that last woman came out and said that Cain was paying her off for years,err gifts from a 'friend', and his wife didn't know about it but there was no sex it was pretty obvious he was toast and he quit fast. That was the one he couldn't talk his way out of. It made it look like he was lying about all the others. Would you be making regular payments to a single female 'friend' without getting sex (and keep it secret from your wife yet) ?? I cant imagine me doing that and I dont see Cain as the priest type.
After all our opinion of the accusations were really based on our beliefs and his credibility. That last one did it.
West shows a lot of promise. He could actually run for POTUS next time, if nothing bad happens to him in the interim.

The coup de grace....
Palin is trying to win us a Senate seat today, let's hope she is successful.
” Palin is the conservative leader, Reagan in a skirt, with unlimited charisma and the ability to change the game, a true national personality, and that Bachmann is not wired to ever attain such status, Bachmann can vote well from a Congressional seat, but she is not capable of true leadership and changing the status quo, she is a member, not the leader.”
Bachmann is not a leader like Palin?
Hmmmm....many many FReepers would disagree with you.
And please let me know when Bachmann endorses a RINO like
like Fiorina over a tea party conservative, like DeVore.
Also, Bachmann is in the fight as an elected politician.....she could lose her seat. Whereas Palin is going to collect a big paycheck from Fox, and even more from book sales, regardless of who she endorses.
No, Bachmann is not a leader, she is a congresswoman with no great skills or talent at being a movement leader, she is at her peak and she has little effect on anything, congress ignores her and her presidential run was never a serious threat to anyone.
Bachmann doesn’t carry any weight anywhere, we approve of her as a conservative in the congress, but she is not great leader material.
She is along the lines of Duncan Hunter, we like her, like her votes, but she is not an all important national figure.
Yep,
Reagan successfully served his two terms as governor then ran for POTUS three times and won it the third time.
He did NOT quit as governor to get a $$$ media job and then refuse to run for POTUS and keep the cushy media job $$$ while others like Bachmann are on the front line fighting the libs.
Reagan was a movement leader, and a political leader.
Palin is a media figure and a cult leader of a tiny irrelevant cult. Most of her cult fans jumped ship last year leaving a few nutbags who don't even appear to know what planet they live on.
Hint, It's not Planet Palin-ton LOL
They have VERY effective medications for delusions like yours, Palin has NOTHING in common with Reagan.
Palin has a tiny cult following remaining after last years mass Exodus last October right after that Levin show.
The few cult members left are just walking zombies who try to eat others (the living) brains because they are jealous that they have none themselves, like in that AMC series.

Actually, Reagan walked away from a big income to enter politics. Just the opposite of Palin. Trying to compare Palin with Reagan is like comparing ground beef with USDA Prime dry aged Porterhouse steak : )

Palin is unarguably the second biggest political figure in the republican party, second only to it's presidential candidate, Palin is the actual leader of the right in America, the top tea party figure, the most coveted and important endorsement in America, Bachmann is none of that and she does not have the gifts to ever become that.
Oh, so that's how Romney got the nomination ..and Sharon Angle too.
Palin who? Maybe she can join Bristol as a mother and daughter act on Dancing with The Stars. Then you can 'vote for her' at last.
Amazing, this is like talking to a child, good luck with your ignorance of the political struggles in America, I’m going to go check in on the Texas race where conservatives are hoping that Palin has led us to the political upset of 2012.
She can follow up her first movie ‘The Undecided’ with a sequel ‘The unwilling’.
As I pointed out, with you it is about personalities, about who you like and don’t like, about your own internal personality preferences and feelings about individual people, but it is not about the actual political scene in America and the conservative movement.
I will seek out leaders who don’t endorse RINOS one day, and conservatives the next. Palin has endorsed a number of RINOS.
To me, this is not conservative leadership, and certainly not
Reaganesque.
