The media is starting its barrage of attacks on Sarah Palin, reporting such things as her not knowing the countries involved in NATO or that Africa is not actually a country. The attacks may have some truth to them, and it seems like they are making large efforts to throw her under the bus so she is going to be far too damaged for a run for President in 2012. FOX news, as shown below is one of the leaders of attacks.
I wonder if this is an orchestrated effort to damage Palin because she supposedly went “rogue” during the campaign and decided she had her own opinions after all. I think this situation is ripe for Ron Paul to reach out to her. She can be an ally in helping to change the GOP from within. It seems the current party leadership is vulnerable. A few Palin and Paul media counter attacks are in order.
If Palin truly did go rogue, then what is stopping her from doing so now as the media promises to continue blaming her for McCain’s loss? In fact, I think the time is ripe for Ron Paul to contact every endorsed candidate in his Liberty PAC and have a public forum (hopefully televised on CSPAN or another outlet) discussing the future of the GOP. They could make attempts to publicly push the Republican Party towards its Old Right roots. I would love to watch a forum including Jeff Flake, Sarah Palin, Walter Jones, Gary Johnson, Mark Sanford, and many of the other Ron Paul endorsed Republicans.
Paul did something similar with his “vote third party” press conference. He ignored some of his own principles to find a common ground. Why not do the same in a concerted effort to publicly and openly steer the GOP back towards the Constitution and limited government?
Here, FOX News throws Palin under the bus.
I say
it's worth a shot, but don't hold your breath.
Her husband was AIP. Her son is in Iraq.
Will someone send her a copy of Revolution?
fuck no... she was terrible
fuck no... she was terrible in her policies and now she's a laughing stock... she said one tiny nice thing about Ron Paul and for some reason we're all supposed to lover her now? All she said was "Ron Paul is cool."
She probably didn't even mean it, especially since the question was from an MTV reporter who asked her what she thought of Ron Paul.
As long as we're embracing neo-cons we might as well give Bush and Cheney a hug too.
Let's send out an open letter to her!
Something that says we admire her for trying to have her own opinions and that we welcome her to our movement where her independent mind will be appreciated.

No thanks. Palin has been
No thanks. Palin has been involved in too many shady and/or criminal activities. She also thinks that it is God's will that we are in Iraq......................................sorry.....this broad is off her rocker. I don't care what she has to say about Ron Paul. Palin is NOT part of the Revolution. She'll just be another *Reagan* who borrowed his platform from Goldwater, then when he got into power totally FAILED to implement hardly ANY of it. Reagan was a total failure and so shall Palin be if she gets into the Presidency. Thanks, but no thanks.
What is this whole, "she
What is this whole, "she went rogue" thing. What comments did she make that separated her form McCain?
Edit: Is this the whole rogue thing? She didn't like somethings the campaign was doing, that's it???
CNN: "McCain sources point to several incidents where Palin has gone off message, and privately wonder if they were deliberate. For example: labeling robo calls “irritating,” even as the campaign was defending the use of them and telling reporters she disagreed with the campaigns controversial decision to pull out of Michigan."
She's cool!
Sarah Palin has been amazing. Although I do not agree with pro-lifers, I do respect them. And, I wonder how many women on this thread could have endured what Sarah Palin had to endure in such a short period of time. She made a lovely comment about Ron Paul. And, she deserves our appreciation.
In truth,

In truth,
Good luck, If we as a group
Good luck,
If we as a group refuse to attempt to engage potential allies, then we as a movement are truly barking at the ankles of failure. This attitude of no compromise, always naysaying and not looking towards the future, then we have failed. This party is in prime positioning for reshaping. The real question is will we be on the sidelines looking in or will we engage candidates like Palin where we have a fighting chance. The our way or the high way attitude is killing this movement, you all should go back into your rabbit holes where you came from and hide. I for one choose to fight and reshape the party, I would hope that ya'll would join me and other like me. If we don't reach out to the Palin's of the party, we are in trouble.
Remember
The only candidate you will ever agree with 100% is yourself, to toss all other aside because you don't agree with them completely is pure ignorance and idiocy.
Palin is not someone we want
Palin is not someone we want to represent us. To be honest, she is an ignoramus - a babbling idiot- cut from the same cloth as George W Bush.
sorry, it's not an option
as far as I'm concerned.
That screechy voice made my spine hurt
I felt she, didn't have a clue.
"Our Day is Coming"
★★★thank you RON PAUL★★★
Columbus, Platte Co. Nebraska
She didn't have a clue cuz
She didn't have a clue cuz she was spiting neocon rhetoric, thats not the Palin I've read about pre-nomination. My hope is that we as a movement can help push her back to the Palin prior to nomination. Thats the Palin I'm hoping for and thats the reason for this post.
No thank you
I would rather stay with politicians that have and are alligning themselves with Ron Paul's ideas. Shes used goods now that she couldnt name a major newspaper she reads and awnsering africa is a country.
Silly rumors by McCain
Silly rumors by McCain staffers crying sour grapes, especially when she started to show she had an opinion of her own.
She made great comments

She made great...classy...comments to those rumors in this story...
Palin denounces anonymous critics as 'cowardly'

"This is Barack Obama's time right now, and this is an historic moment in our nation and this can be a shining moment for America and our history, and look what we're talking about. Again, we're talking about my shoes and belts and skirts. It's ridiculous."

I agree
Palin herself is no good, but many of her supporters probably are.

I think if
McCain picked who he really wanted to (Lieberman) he would have lost even worse than he did. I wonder if he was ordered to pick Palin.
Yes
.
If indeed Palin really is
If indeed Palin really is "the real thing"...(ie, an anti-neocon advocate), there is still no way she can be trusted. She obviously is ready and willing to sell out any principles she has to gain a little power.
After all her pandering to the neocon base about the evils of Iran, the need to stay in Iraq, and the fear mongering of Obama's "terrorist ties", she is a friend of liberty no longer.
So we are to assume that
So we are to assume that someone will stay dead set in their ways, won't change their mind and approach and can't come around and be affective? If thats the case, then we might as well pack up house and give up completely for we as a movement have already lost.
Have you ever noticed Ron Paul selling
his soul to the devil for the sake of being able to get in, being popular, all in the hope of being able to change the scene from the inside???
Staying true to oneself is a first for other people to believe in you.
She did none of that, and made a fool of herself. Credibility lost.
and to add, we as a movement
and to add, we as a movement are now in prime position to reshape the party. We do this by helping to push and reshape candidates like Sarah Palin. We can move mountains if we put our minds to it... but the naysayers and people not willing to compromise will surely be the end to this movement.
Rhythm you are absolutely right!
In Christ,
Dave

Sarah Palin is the real thing - she is no NeoCon. Her husband is a member of the Alaska Independence Party which is much more radical than the LP or the CP.
David Macko says, “Regarding Sarah Palin, she was chosen by William Kristol, a dedicated Zionist neocon enemy of liberty, one of the leaders in the destruction of the Republican Party, which richly deserved to commit suicide. Unfortunately, it may be taking the rest of us with it as the communist Obama regime begins.”
David I agree with you about Kristol and Obama, but Palin was not chosen by Kristol - ha ha ha thats funny. Kristol promoted her (had nothing to do with VP selections)
as well as demoted her on purpose. Why not put in Palin (a populist conservative libertarian) and drag her down with McCain. Its very easy to see that Kristol had no real enthusiasm for her, because he knew all along McCain was going down. Palin was brought in for one thing and only one thing, McCain was crashing, Barr was at 7% and they did not want the blame to be the fact that a couple of Liberals in McCain and Lieberman who would have been the nominees for President and VP to take the fall. So they searched and found the one candidate that was polar opposite of McCain in every way and ambushed her with crazy rules and setups.
Once she was picked you can see that Barr’s numbers dropped like a rock, so he could never achieve the minor party status we all wanted at 5%. Then they tried to make Palin look like a joke, never really making the argument that she had more experience and brains than Obama.
Mission acomplished.
No No No David they hoodwinked you into thinking Palin was not worthy, when if fact she is probably the closest person for truth in America. The problem is that you are listening to the MSM too much, you should know better.
You will see Palin come out firing back, pushing her populist/conservative/libertarian message. She is free from the McCain campaign chains she was forced to work within, that is, until the last 2 1/2 weeks of the campaign
when she started to push her own views.
The Democrat Party is deathly scared of Palin, they know she is someone that can unite enough populist/conservative/libertarian voters to beat them.
I think they made a huge mistake (bad for them/good for us)
in picking her, I don’t think she would have ever came into national prominence otherwise, but now she is here and the seed has been planted and it will grow into a Palin win in 4 years. I was a Ron Paul district coordinator, and a Barr supporter but I am already transitioning to Palin 2012.
