Just finished interview on FOX. Akin should step aside, otherwise Steelman should run 3rd party, which she would support.

all this from a gal I once absolutely adored...I mean teared up when she gave her first few national speeches and who led us along by our noses for years and sparked many an intense fight from the harpies here if one dared question any utterance dear Sarah declared

and now like I really care....

thanks darling...you had your chance and we got to watch Cain collapse and Rick fold like a chump and Newt get humiliated by Mitt's cash

and you stood by when the ring was in your reach

and now we have a liberal Yankee from Massachusetts who believes in gay marriage, gays in the military, single pay health option, gun control, carbon credits and the whole damned litany of progressive crap and FOX News is like his PRAVDA arm and talk radio is mostly up his butt...and forced down our throats as the GOP establishment threw conservatives under the bus and you watched when you could have fought for it and acted just like you would up until the last minute and THAT DAMNED BOOK..which to me spooked you...and you meekly quit before ever starting on the friendly turf of Levin's show

stick to your speaking tour and reality TV hon...your 15 minutes are over

Most of them have the same last name and are cousins. That’s why I live in Kansas.

You want a Hickenlooper?

Absolutely not -- those leave marks.

Jonathan Dine is running as a Libertarian. According to his site he’s been getting a big increase in donations the last few days. He won’t win but he might be a spoiler.

It worked for Murkowski.

Diaster, and a sure way for the GOP to lose.

In the full interview, Sarah Palin said 'IF' and "someone LIKE Sarah Steelman" throughout the interview so she's not really wrong.

She said it's a decision that should be made (third party challenger) if Akin doesn't get out by the September deadline.

He can drop between now and then but has to pay for the ballots to be reprinted.

That is what I was afraid of. She cannot afford to make that kind of gaffe.

She didn't really make a gaffe as the pile-on types wish. Watch the entirely interview and she says "like Sarah Steelman" and "IF" frequently.

She has plausible deniability if necessary.

No, not Romney and Ryan of course not but the underlings such as Talent, Bond, Palin and Stan the Man if he’s still alive !! There is more to gain than lose — he’s not going away and McCaskill must be defeated and this isn’t New Jersey so pulling a Toricelli won’t work... Demonize McCaskill buy hanging her votes and the economy around her neck like an anvil !!!

The Democrat’s keynote speaker is an alleged Rapist... and a legitimate rape at that... last I checked Juanita didn’t get pregnant !!!

But as I understand she can run as a third party which is what was recommended - not as independent or write in
