We need to stop jumping on Poor little Sarah
We don't want McCant to dump her, we want him to keep her, we can beat the two of them.

We don't want women and men of all parties to try to protect her.

Say she seems like a nice lady,wife and mother.

Say she seems to have been a good President of the PTA.

Say she seems to be able to multi-task but let's have her stay on the ticket.

We could get Romney or Huck or someone else.

I think she is a keeper, Biden will gently take her to the cleaners.

Just my thoughts now flame away.

1. My feeling is if he dumps her he looks like an incompetent fool and

that has more legs than Palin for 2 more months. Besides the debate, (and don't be sure she can't hold her own. She has no where to go but up) she will be hidden from view for 2 months and only paraded in view in front of hand-picked audiences of pistol packing fundies.

5. I mean don't dump on her now ~ wait until there is no turning back

and it will be horrible for them to dump her in midstream.

2. Damn, I'm torn.
My sense of justice can't tolerate that person being on the ticket -- I don't know why my feelings of revulsion are so strong. Maybe because we are similar in age, both have kids, same sex, but her worldview is the OPPOSITE of mine.

My dislike of McCain is also intense, but I can distance myself from it somehow.

But logically you're right. She's an extreme right-winger, and the only people who support her are the ones who'd never vote for Obama anyway. She's driving away the Independents in droves.

So I guess I'm with you. I'll stop wishing for her to go away. :hi:

8. They say be careful what you wish for


I'm wishing that she goes away on her own.

" Needs to take care of the baby"

But, if she leaves who would they replace her with----?

It could be a lot harder to beat them with Romney, especially if McCain drops out and let's Romney take it for the last month or so.

Just guessing

3. We DO want him to dump her. If they steal the election (AGAIN),
I have no doubt that McCain will meet with some unfortunate accident or illness or whatever and Palin will be promoted to prez. Do you know what that will do to the fundie base? Get ready to change your entire life RIGHT AWAY if that happens. No concessions, no compromises. It will be Jesus 24/7 EVERYWHERE. NO ESCAPE. No exit.

7. I'm with you.
We have to look beyond the elections. While I don't think McCain can win honestly, they haven't won the last two Presidential elections honestly, so why should we think there won't be MASSIVE cheating to get McCan't into the W.H. this time?

We cannot have this woman as president. It would be absolutely disastrous. Not only is she a wacko fundy, but I honestly don't think she has the experience to run the country. The Repugs used to say that Obama was inexperienced, but they've now shown us what inexperienced truly looks like in Sarah Palin.

4. I would normally agree but the RW media has been building up the propaganda
to a feverish pitch. And just like the past couple months where every repuke with a mike shoved in their face spouted "drill drill drill" ad infinitum, leading to (phony) polls reporting that something like "57%" of the public "believes in drilling".... the repetitiveness of their talking points right now will start to stick unless the nonsense is forcefully debunked or blindsided.

6. Sarah will be back - unless she is forced out or
the ticket suffers a big loss, directly related to her. Unlike Dems, Republicans get a second change. Palin is an unhinged fanatic. If you see a rabid Moose, you don't give it a second chance.

11. Maybe so ~ I just keep hearing such crazy things about her
and yet the MSM keeps building her up with Roght Wingnuts as spokesman.
