God I love how the left tries to make it sound like losing the House was a good thing.
Anyway, Sarah Palin was never going to make it through the primaries. And that is the only way most people on the right and even half of those in the center might vote for her, If they had only her to vote against Obama.
I for one hope we find someone I can vote for instead of having to once again vote against.
Oh, be serious. Do you honestly think there's ANYONE who could emerge as a front-runner for the Republican nomination who WOULDN'T then become the left's primary target - yes, I'm using "violent, militaristic terminology"; sue me . . . or blame a shooting on me - and be just as demonized and marginalized as Sarah Palin is now? If you're going to run around, going, "I can't vote for that person; look at all the baggage they have. Look at their bad reputation. They're not electable" when this stuff happens, there's never going to be ANY candidate you "can vote for instead of having to vote against" someone.
You need to stop paying attention to the left's rhetoric.
