So, when she runs and takes the nomination in February...will she refuse to debate Obama ‘cause she doesn’t want him on the stage.

She just slays me.

You don’t think she’s come against major frontal attacks since her speech at the RNC in 08?

Really?

You may be right, but all they have left is abject LIES! Make $#!t up. And she’s called them on that on more than one occasion.

Anyone with half a brain will tell you it’s gonna be a fight. This time though, there’s a warrior ready to fight back. That is what scares the living $#!t out of all of them, RINO and Lib alike.

Sarah Palin is 110% US Grade A!

Why is Rove bad for dissing O’Donnell, but Palin good?

Rove publicly dissed O'Donnell the day she won the Republican nomination for Senator in 2010. Cost her many thousand votes, and the momentum she had for winning the nomination.

We don't know what Palin said about O'Donnell. We have some unnamed sources quoted in a hostile publication. We do have a Freeper who may know more, but his information was obtained privately.

O'Donnell ran a weak general election campaign. A realistic assessment of Delaware had her as an underdog anyway, but a strong campaign would have earned O'Donnell some deserved respect.

Of course the Tea Party organizers are amateurs. How could it be otherwise, when the RINO-controlled Republican organization encouraged money, but not grass-roots efforts? 2010 was the first serious campaign season for most of the Tea Party grassroots, and we did better than the Republicans in 1856.

CO is utter than a fruitcake. I have never been so embarrassed in my life as when she ran. I don’t mind saying that FR’s support of this flake embarrassed me as well.

Good on Sarah for having the smarts not to allow such as CO to hitch her wagon to her. Sarah just proved to me that she is politically savvy enough to see the mines cast in her path.

It is a shame the MSM and the hates are trying to turn this into a cat fight. Granted Sarah did endorse the nut, but does this mean she should be forever linked to her? I think not. Bravo Sarah!

She plainly stated that none of the current declared candidates met her standards.

Like it or lump it!

.
Sarah Palin has been the only person debating Obama since the day he was elected.

She has called him out on every bit of his policies, and in great detail.

I’m sure she slays you, but then you’re easy to slay, so that would be faint praise.

Really?

25,000 of her emails posted publicly, and not one single flub in any of them, and you can’t see the attack?

You have flushed any credibility you might have had (don’t worry, it ain’t gonna plug the toilet any more than a ball of cotton)

We have been Palin supporters since she ran for VP—we voted for her that November not McCain—he was on HER ballot as far as we were concerned. She has remained politically active and played a big part in the Tea Party Miracle of 2010. She has said she is undecided about a presidential run and would let us know sometime in August or September.
Others,like LTC West,Chris Christie,Paul Ryan and Jim DeMint said,unlike Sarah, that they are not running and one should take them at their word so they have no supporters realistically expecting them to run.
I will confess to being a little overly defensive about Sarah Palin and sometimes a little too harsh on her critics. But it's just politics even if it sounds a little personal—we all want ours to win and for that to happen theirs must lose.
Free Republic was and is a pioneer of the New Conservative Media and carries a lot of influence even if little accreditation is given it by those who source it regularly.
Many a popular talking head's opinion or a smart take on a particular issue written by a well known columnist has already been posted long since by one of our clever amateur pundits.
We are the ultimate show prep.
So if I call you an ugly name because you support someone who may beat my pick—it's politics not personal and if my argument is better than yours it can only help mine to win.
Thick skin and a sense of humor are survival must haves here.

She lied, and she backstabbed Gov.Palin, who had gone to bat for her.

I must have missed that somehow. When did she backstab Governor Palin?

Looks like COD tried a little something to get on the stage with Sarah. Goodness knows what else she may have done.

It is kind of wierd how the organizers went about this. Can't help getting the feeling that they purposely tried to sabotage Sarah.

Why are there suddenly so many posters getting defensive about Ken Crow?

Who knows.

In any case, based on this mess Crow probably shouldn’t be involved in organizing political events, now or any time in the future.

Surprised you haven’t said more since you know so much about O’Donnell.

That’s not the bottom line - read what the Palin camp said instead of muddying the waters like the media.
