That's fairly obvious...

To 26 - You are not 'taunting' anyone. The McCain endorsement sucks yet Palin has not offered up any mea culpa or equivocation to those she had disappointed.
Truly a person who stands by her convictions and isn't rattled when those don't jibe with some conservatives' viewpoint. In other words, she hasn't 'played politics', an admirable trait.

So Palin, despite almost single-handedly resurrecting conservatism, has endorsed McCain. Cry me a fecking river. And I was amongst those who, at the time, were very vocal in censuring her for this 'unexplainable lapse'. So Palin did something I didn't approve of. I had a choice - continue to pout or suck it up and move forward.
Sure, it would be nice if we lived in a perfect world where only bona fide conservatives ran and got elected. But back in the real world it is somewhat an act of self-flaggelation to support candidates who can only manage to attract 16%, 1%, or less, of the votes in their own Party.

I honestly believe that many who are thinking about seeking the GOP nod in '12 are remaining on the sidelines until they know what Mrs Palin will do. Only a self-centered, delusional fool would face this lady in the primaries.
