Palin targeted this demographic - it was a political strategy - and it didn't work.

Whaaaat? So they didn't get the ACLU support and the inner city bennies like the black folks did? I'm still searching for scholarships and benefit programmes for po white kids from the trailer parks. Have you found any?

First, I'm talking about the demographic I stated in the post.

You are talking about a completely different demographic.

The focus on my post is on the standard of living and declining incomes

In my hometown I know many people that fit the demographic I'm talking about.

Remind me what those demographica are that you are talking about.

why do the teabaggers hate america?

at their teabagging convention there wasn't a.....

Pledge of Allegiance to open the convention -- nor was there an American flag in the convention hall

tsk tsk.

forgot the flag, eh?

i'm sure they didn't forget to collect the $550 entrance fee.

Teabaggers hate America because they are stuck in a timewarp that no longer represents the modern world than the 'Andy Griffiths show'.

They love the Amerka of sitcom's, they hate the real America. A nation of immigrants, yet these people have the cheek to call themselves 'real Americans'. They are not.

Then why are 3 members of the Tea Party movement challenging Ron Paul for his congressional seat? He's the godfather of a true libertarian, small government movement.

I believe Sarah Palin had an Israeli one in her office, she could have brought that along.

Oh, this is issues . . . so, here's the link for the likes of Jet and her fellow followers of the dark side.



Is this legal? Where do her loyalties lie? The USofA or Israel? Who funded her rise to prominence? Were did she get the money from for her exploits? Where is the money from her speaking engagements and book going?

Time for some open-ness, Ms. Palin. The people have a right to know these things while our sons and daughters are in every corner of the world dying for us.

Why do the tea-baggers hate America? Why do they love Israel? Why do they love someone who had an Israeli flag in her office?

Answers . . .

Remind me what those demographica are that you are talking about.

Do keep up, and what are demographica? Pretty pictures with demons?

Jet, I've noted the demographical groups she's alienated many times on this forum.

No offense, but if you followed the campaign and followed Palin, you would know.


In addition, the GOP wants to get her out of the picture, and wants her to fade away.

not entirely.

she can raise cash, but she can't win votes.

she's good at bilking money from the rubes....you know, middle aged, white, and not so bright.

but you should also note that in the recent successful republican campaigns in MA, NJ, and VA she wasn't allowed anywhere near the candidates.

and that's because the majority of americans see her for what she is....a fraud, a hypocrite, a taxcheat and a quitter.

Careful where you tread there. Many of their forefathers and mothers helped to build the country.

Yes, I did, but if you think I remembered what you thought the demographics were, I regret that they obviously were not so impressive as to be uppermost in my mind.

^ Those are your thoughts or are they reported facts, Milkie?

The GOP wanting her out politically, I do consider a fact - however some may disagree. But the evidence is pretty strong from the comments from the RNC, Steven Schmidt, the McCain staff, and the moderates and "Reagan Republicans."

People are very quiet. They are not breaking "Reagan's rule:" 'don't speak ill of another Republican.'

And people don't want to alienate her base.

^ No diff from the Dems in those terms.

By keeping quiet? Wanting her to fade away, politically?

I think many Dems would want Palin to win the nomination.

Interesting piece here, on the Tea Party movement.

3 candidates from/of the Tea Party of challenging Ron Paul in his district. I don't understand this.

Also at the 5:00 minute mark not Ron Paul's specific beliefs, in comparison to the Palin camp beliefs. Palin speak very broadly and uses slogan, but rarely if ever uses specific details in policy or her opinions.

Obama has used details? Anywhere? Biggest generalizer and meanderer in pretty word-ville I've ever seen. Oh, right, he does say how much the new spending bills will be.

No, I meant the Dems are as tight-lipped about their own party transgressions as the GOP are.

It does sound like a certain poster.

The GOP knows that a strong Palin presence isn't good.

^ How do you know that, Milkie? You an insider? Just wondering, since there's never any linkie for these comments of yours.

555555555 Gargoyle asking for 'linkies' again! Fek, Milkie. 'linkies please' 555555

Read several news reports from different sources. I'm not going to go and try to compile them and then cut and paste. It would take too long.

The GOP is splintered.

Oh, so, linkies are no longer necessary in Issues? I will remember that when I am again accused of making a "generalization" and if I ever state an unfounded "fact" like you just did.

That is rich coming from the obfuscating queen of throwaway lines.

^ Why not just post one link that supports your generalised assumptions? Easier, for other posters innit? Not this sneering "it's everywhere on the Net" attitude. I used that once and got bashed for it. Now you have o-mae robuzo doing the same thing as you. "Pshaw, you question my authority?"
Issues rules are (were?) clear: you paraphrase someone or quote and you post the relevant link.

This is common knowledge.

Tomorrow after work, I'll post many links and snippets.

I shouldn't, but I will.
