GOP Base Gives Sarah Palin the Edge Over Mitt Romney in 2012

But if you are going to get anywhere with convincing a clear eyed conservative like myself and others to support your candidate, you need to shut up with all the diatribes, the false bullcrap stories about other candidates, mormon bashing (LDS corruption in the Salt Lake Olympics is a total lie), and start showing evidence that Palin can be something greater than a celebrity or a conservative "Oprah". Cause the rest of us aren't going to vote for a republican Obama like the democrat rubes did in 2008.

Convince us, don't lie. Some of the total horsepucky I have read from Palin supporters lately have made me embarrased to be part of the republican party.

Please.

People, pull your heads out.... please please please. As a conservative american I want what is best for this country, but deliberately dreaming up a fantasy WILL NOT HELP THE COUNTRY in '10 OR '12.

Palin is what she is. Romney is what he is. Huck is what he is.... etc. Stop making up alot of bullcrap about each other's favorites. I read on here and other blogs total swill which has been fabricated about everyone. SHUT UP. That kind of crap will only weaken the conservative push toward november.

In all honesty, the worst of this is coming from rabid Palin supporters. And I like Palin. You supporters are doing her an injustice. Get ahold of yourselves. I like Palin for what she is. Let her do the best she can for the country doing what she does. Acting like a bunch of assenine liars as her supporters is just turning off those of us that aren't convinced she has the chops to be leader of the free world. You are hurting your own cause. You are by far the worst perpetrators of this among republicans. By far.

I guess it was because you watched your lady get ravaged by the insane and socialist media that now you feel that any and all is free game so you will slash and burn now to protect your darling. Well while you are frantically waving your knives around in a lurid blur you are slashing those around you that you will need to come to your aid if Palin takes the nomination. CALM DOWN and stick with the facts.

This cult of Palin worship is going to thrust a second coming of a weakly prepared politician onto the the American public. A reincarnation of Obama, but this time from the right. We don't need that. Oprah Winfrey could be popular and get big crowds but WE DON"T WANT THAT AS PRESIDENT.

You say Palin thinks and believes exactly as you do and has exactly the same values as you do. Well, so does my milk man. So does my kid's scout master. We sure as heck don't want those good people to run the country though. They don't have the chops.

You say Palin is so popular, she has the evangelicals and the conservatives and women all clamoring for her. She can win the presidency. Well Obama had all that going for him too. What will she do with it when she is there. This ain't Alaska. Heaven forbid I am saying this but Huck would be better as commander in chief than Palin. And I like Palin and detest Shmuck. But she doesn't have the chops people. I believe Romney would do a phenomenal job, not a perfect job, but the best out of the current candidates, but would he do better than a Christie? Or some other candidate as of yet unknown? I dunno.

'Look what he did with the 2002 Winter Olympics" Yep, look what he did with the Olympics -- it was great the American people pulled together, it was great American companies and other companies came in to sponsor and sponsors fled due to SLC corruption -- even though SLC and the LDS people/leadership showed how corrupt they could be.

It was such a great job Mitt did, the press from Japan was a no show at this last presidential announcement in Dearborn.

If Romney was smart, he would stop having people beaten up, but they are not, so they will lose.

Hay! What about that guy Romney had the fake FBI go after because he disagreed with Romney over a rodeo. That is control freak Romney showing his inner-self- he has to push people around. I heard Romney ducked and hid behind a car later, when Romney saw the super-duper anti-rodeo terrorist van!! Too funny Mitt. Mitts is a big bully.

Romney could debate circles around Palin and Obama too. YOU Watch, when the American people see Romney's intellect and vision next to others in a true debate he'll be very impressive. Will the people see that Romney is the superior choice over Palin? -- You Bet-cha!!!

Romney’s a Hawk when it comes to National Defense. He knows that the only true respect we will get from the World is to be Militarily strong which commands the respect of these thug dictators throughout the World. No Apologies from this guy, not after all the good AMERICA has done in the World.

I have followed Romney for a few years now he is a proven master in getting positive results. Look what he did with the 2002 Winter Olympics. Those Olympics were ridden with bribes and corruption and on the verge of becoming a total failure. Romney was selected to take over the mess which he did and totally turned it around into becoming one of the most successful and respected games in Olympic History, which made America proud instead of shamed.

Romney knows how to streamline and make things efficient. He’s done this in business and he turned Massachusetts financial crisis into a big financial State surplus. Mitt Romney also knows the world stage better then most in that he’s worked in the International arena with his many business dealings. He has a very unique perspective on how we can make this great Country of ours strong and competitive against the likes of China and the emerging India. etc.

I like Romney alot. He’s a moral man with a great family. I would hope that he would inspire this Country to get back to higher moral standards that we had several years back, before immorality, sexual perverseness and pornography had penetrated many facets of our society. I long for the day when I was a kid and you could turn on the TV and watch all channels (3 at that time) and see nothing but good decent shows and programming. Now I panic whenever I see a kid turn on a TV not to mention the unbelievable pervasive acts that are available for all to see on the internet. This, my friends concerns me more than any Economic downturn or Terrorist threat because the soul of our Nation and the Souls of our Children are being poisoned by this evil and when are morals are gone there goes our country; In my view Romney is a true beacon of hope in this darkening world.

May God Bless this Great Country of ours ….
