ones the vice president. the other has about as much relavance as paris hilton.
i just don't understand LG's obsession w/ her. she's not pres, or vp. like droski said she has no relevance but he continues to beat a dead horse
the dems keep grasping onto palin and limbaugh because they are scared to death that the republicans are going to make a huge comeback and that obama will be a massive failure. best to confuse the issue and make the face of the republican party people who have zero influence rather than focus on president spends-a-lot's policies.
I guess you haven't been reading because I've said now more than a few times on here that I think Biden's losing his mind.
I have the intellectual honesty to say that.
But you lock-step conservatives won't admit the obvious, which is that Palin is flat out ignorant.
No, she has.
Look neither of them (Biden, Palin) are great IMO, but to defend Joe and make fun of Sarah is laughable.

If the Republican party suddenly became sane and chose someone with superior fiscal experience and qualifications and who was a moderate on social policy, you'd be right.
But as long as the party is dominated by Limbuahg, Hannity, Palin, Coulter, and Newt Gingrich, they just can't mount a serious challenge.
the one thing the repub party doesn't need is another moderate, mccain was def a moderate and if he can't get elected then forget it. they need to get back to a more conservative value.
the mistake they made was nominating such a person. mccain. that was a huge mistake.
McCain was definitely not as charismatic as Obama was, but I'd have been perfectly content with him winning because I thought he was qualified. I have said that many times.
The Republican party must be on guard however not to just go for someone charismatic for the base but that is going to have all this baggage and who can't stand up well next to an intelligent liberal. The Republicans would be far better off, IMO, with a Mitt Romney type than a Sarah Palin type.

I think you would be shocked at the number of people in the Republican party who would not support Romney because he's LDS versus would support Palin because she's Christian. At least in the primaries and certainly in terms of fund-raising.
That's unfortunate but I think correct. They are no more a "cult" than any other major religion, IMO.

Romney's problem wouldn't just be lukewarm support in the general -- it would be emerging from the primary as the nominee versus a religious Christian candidate like Huckabee or Palin.
