In DEFENSE of Sarah Palin

Fascinating to see two posts from you about Palin, neither of which are critical of her. I agree, there is absolutely no way she could NOT campaign for him without looking ungrateful, disloyal, and disrespectful. I don't know how anyone could accuse her of being a RINO. She's never claimed to support everything McCain does and even spoken out on several issues where she disagrees with him. The Tea Party is not really anything official and thus does not have a specific platform. Some may welcome her and some may not. Some in the Tea Party movement don't like career politicians regardless of what they stand for.

Another can of worms was opened for Sarah today. It seems that her husband Todd, was making a lot of State decisions for her thousands of emails have been located proving it. What's that all about? I wonder what the "Tea Party" thinks about that?

I agree with you. Besides, if she supported the other candidate there would be just as many people mad at her for not being loyal to McCain.

I'd say that would make her someone who has made up her own mind. Sarah's never been one to stick strictly to the party line and it isn't at all unusual for her to p.o. her own party. A girl that thinks for herself. You should like that, Annie.

to be honest if she wasn't supporting mccain i wouldn't see that as necessarily cause for criticism. she might have changed her for want of a better word 'mind' - which would demonstrate perhaps independent thinking, or simply have thought it was expedient - which is normal in politics if not particularly nice. as she is i don't really see it as cause for praise either. what is a rino by the way? is it the same as a rhino? is the poor girl now in danger from poachers?

...Hi annie, One thing I will say about SaraLee is that she thinks for herself. She may not think well, based on the answers she has given along the way, but I also think as I have said before, that she has a mental problem with the cognitive thinking process. That said, I think she looked at the situation and thought that if she didn't dance with the man that brung her, she would look disloyal. He made her a household name, so she is stomping for him. I also think that she feels her supporters will be there regardless and she doesn't care. She has her job at Fox, she wants to be in front of the camera, I don't think that she really thinks she can bluff her way to the presidency, so a show at Fox will be fine with her. The exposure is her cup of tea, with no one challenging her jabberwocky speak, Fox makes up the news, she fits right in. I want to see where the train ends its run. About her being ahead of Mitt Romney in a poll, as someone mentioned, the pet rock was famous for a while, and many ships have gone to the bottom of the ocean with incompetent captains at the helm. Time will tell. Take care.

After watching the FOX Chris Wallace interview and excerpts of her Tea Party speech, I say Give em Hell Sarah !. As far as her support of McCain, Annie, the McCain website has her scheduled to be in Arizona on the 26th and 27th of March. I hope she does, I'm not a real big McCain fan politically, God Bless the man for what he went through for our Country though. RINO he is but thats better than a Democrat, and we'l take that every time. What we don't want is progressives like the Obama-Paloci-Reid "Tripartite" (look it up)screwing with our Capitalist Economic System. May God Bless Sarah P and McCain and everyone who is opposed to this destroy America from within 5th column that occupies our seats of power. Temporarily :)

I don't care one way or the other if Sarah Palin campaigns for John McCain. The problem I have is with the voters who choose according to what someone else says or thinks and not because they've done their own research to decide who's the best candidate. If J.D. Hayworth is the better candidate, it shouldn't matter what Sarah Palin says.

I once felt confident in my appraisal of Palin and McCain, but now I'm not as sure. McCain wimped out at election time in face of the Obama monster machine. I thought better of him than that; now I don't. Palin was amazing at first, but on election night I saw fear and sadness in her face. She, too, has capitulated in face of the corruptocrats that are destroying our country. No compromise with evil is the rule I believe is right and I feel she is beginning to play the "politics" game. It's true she was raked over the coals by O's goons, but, at first she seemed able to withstand the torture. She seems to have given up and that's sad. Loyalty is important, but I feel McCain is too much of a RHINO. It's not about a popularity contest, but about what is right and best for a Constitutional Republic, which is now being dismantled by the horrific usurper and his evil minions. America is in the deepest of trouble and too few even have the awareness to protect themselves.
