Very true! His apology would have been more sincere if he had left the excuse out about his wife. He also sort of beat around the bushes about how he has supported Palin and her family. Just friggin apologize that you used a photo shopped photo of Palin and that it was wrong and demeaning. Leave out all of the other BS.

What would happen if Palin started campaigning for Trump…????

Interesting question. IMO, it could happen only if Palin had sufficient reason to believe Trump was a viable and capable candidate who could serve reasonably well as president. We can confidently conclude she will not allow herself to be “used” for political gain again.

Then my answer to your question: she would align herself with a straight-talking middle of the roader, non-politician who has a set and who appears to satisfy the requirements of the bulk of the voters.

My calc: Trump voters + Cruz voters + Sarah voters > traditional dem voters (no matter who that candidate might be).

Pepsionice touched on a significant point: it is clear the segment of voters in the middle has increased sharply. Many conservatives are at a point where they would rather have a middle of the roader than be betrayed once more by a RINO, and many traditional dem voters are concerned with the by now quite clear and obvious lockstep jerk to the far left by the dem party.

Re the title of the thread: EE summarily disinvited DT and then tried to explain and "apologize" by attributing our backlash not to his pompous, egotistical act where the blame belongs but to our dissatisfaction with RINO's. How pathetic.

He’s a typical fat weasel. I’ve encountered numerous in my many years.

Could I have a toke off of that roach you’re smokin’? It obviously has relieved you of all reasoning powers.

I didn’t create the map. I grabbed it off the Net so as to illustrate the sort of “red” states this Erickson fellow might actually have in mind.
