I left the Republican Party, became an independent, and voted for Chuck Baldwin. I'm not coming back. The Republican party is a party of hypocrites, liars, and elitsts who exploit. The Democrat party is a party of co-dependent Marxist modern liberal liars, cheats, and immoral people of the worst sort who also exploit. Both parties have turned my state into a crime ridden mess of underachievers, high school dropout criminals, drugged out low achievers, etc...

You can have them both.

Palin for President

I hope she does run for President of the United States. I wish Palin and McCain were in charge now. I'd feel safer and that the country was in good hands. Obama is all ready revealing what an inexperienced and naive politician he is with his "thoughtful" nominations for key posts including lobbyists. What is most disturbing is even after it is revealed how dishonest they are, he still insists that they be approved. The Sec. of the Treasury does not like math and likes to deal in ballpark figures. What a treasure he will be for the American people. His stimulus package was written by the Democrats with Pelosi doing most of the writing so it's more free gifts for constituents than creating jobs for everyone. I predict in 2012 people will be begging her to save them and send Obama packing back to Chicago politics.

Go Away Know Nothing Palin

I'm soooooo tired of Sarah Palin. She is not smart enough to be President of the USA. She's just out there. I wish she'd take care of her special needs child and get her other children's lives in order instead of trying to run the free world, something she knows NOTHING about. If she runs, I'll be voting for Obama, AGAIN!!!!!!!! She is too far to the right and she is not diverse enough, like Obama is and his family. We live in a diverse America and Palin doesn't represent that. We don't want her type back in the White House to mess up whatever the Obama administration is trying to do. I think we shouldn't be switching leaders and parties so much and give Obama a chance, his full 8 years to undo what Republicans are trying to put back in place that got us in the Hell hole that we are currently in today. If I were Palin, I'd be ashamed to run. Her job is in Alaska. I cannot see her and her unmanaged household in the White House. We don't want her there. She wants to be elected on people liking her and that's not enough. We love Obama, but he has the brains, too. It looks like repubs are just sticking Palin out there but she doesn't have the chops. No one will be as excited about her as they are about President Obama, not here in the USA or worldwide. It just simply is NOT the same. No thanks, Sarah, I'll pass. I'm going to do us all a favor and vote for President Obama again.

Palin For President

I am a demacrat and i think she would make agreat President she is more down at the peoples leval than Obama is .Obama is all ready not doing what he said in his campain .Palin has my vote.

Go Sarah!

I am totally on board with Gov. Palin and have already maxed out my donation to her PAC. She is the antidote to the crazy socialist Kenyan. She'll be a formidable candidate in four years.

Willard of CA.

Willard of CA should know. He looks in the mirror everyday and adks whyyyyyyyy?!?!??

Go Sarah 2012!!!! the future of our country and the only one who can bring us back to greatness!!!

I Can Only Hope

With all of the crap and pork Nobama is pouring down the drain , I can only hope and pray that the next four years go by quickly and we can elect someone who will fight for all Americans like Governor Palin. If anyone here thinks giving 6 BILLION dollars to a thug organization like ACORN is a good thing, you truly are sick.

Sarah Palin running for president

Why does everyone get so upset when someone they don't believe in, for whatever reasons, decides to run for political office. Isn't this country about freedom? What's the big deal? If you think a candidate has no chance of election, shouldn't you just laugh and go on with your life? And if that candidate should win, then haven't the people spoken? I'd really like to see this country be fair and nice to ALL of its own.

GOP please nominate Palin

Then come 2012 we will have the opportunity to watch what will

be the three highest rated T.V. shows of all time. Gov. Palin getting schooled by President Obama in the three presidential debates.

YAY SARAH!!!

GO SARAH 2012!!! WE will need you by then!!!
