We did. His name was McCain.
Actually I am worried about that. And I didn't say I want her to be the nominee. But I think the large part of public perception of her was shaped by a hostile media, as well as McCain's ham-handed use of her. Face it, when she got selected, we conservatives finally got excited about the ticket and believed we could win. It's because she is smarter than you give her credit for (but blast away with the stereotypes), and she, again, believes what we believe.
Would I prefer her to be our nominee? No. But if she is, and she attacks Obama on the taxes, and the big-govt, and everything else, then she might have a chance. But I would prefer Jindal.

I'd have to say that Palin was much more evil.
I know. I just wonder if his external actions reflect a set of beliefs, or an ignorance of American tradition. I know he doesn't think the U.S., the UK, or Western democracies are anything special. We're just 1 or 2 of "190 nations." In fact, we should be ashamed of ourselves for all the trouble we've caused. That's what I get from him.
And Thomas Jefferson would have -slapped Obama if he had seen him bowing to anyone, let alone a third-world monarch.
WE ARE INSIDIOUS! MUA HUA HUA HUA
You're right. She's plain evil.
Honestly, though, I don't want liberals to like, appreciate, or understand Sarah Palin, Rush, or other important conservatives. Not as long as they are liberals.
If they did ... then something would be wrong.
Obviously I didn't mean ALL conservatives. It was a statement out of frustration and disgust, and merely how I feel about some people after reading continuous threads on ST. Not targeted at any one individual.

19%. I never said he had no audience, I said it was a very small percentage of people in this country. 19% of this country is still near 50 million people. (and he's got no where near 50 million tuning in - I'm just making a point) You sure so do love the strawman argument though.
And I said nothing about elevating him to Obama's level. I said to the level of a PRESIDENT, because I knew immediately where you would go.
LOL @ you still railing on about communism. Please point me to the communist threat the United States (or anyone for that matter) faces. The cold war has been over for 20 years dude.
Hush is an entertainer with an opinion. you probably think libs don't like him because they don't get him. Your wrong. We don't like him because he is intellectually dishonest and passes his opinion as if it was verifiable fact. What libs don't get is how his minions can claim libs have talking points and are brain dead yet not understand their own hypcocrisy. If you don't 'get it' his sheep are the one's who parrot talking points and rely on hush to give them their information..!
I was going to rag on Don for saying Palin is electable, but then again there is not a single person on the right who is electable for president at the moment. That party is beyond complete disarray.
The Democrats were there in the recent past, but one thing is for damn sure, Dean >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Steele.
The south won't vote for Jindal and Palin has zero shot at getting anyone who isn't already a Republican.
That may be true now; but after 4 years of Obama and his band of misfits, it might be a completely different matter.
Didn't they just give the Queen what she requested?
That is a good question. If it is what the woman wanted, then it is exactly what she should have gotten.
Politico cited criticism of Obama's iPod gift by "etiquette expert," but WH says queen requested it
Summary: The Politico reported that President Obama presented Queen Elizabeth II with "a personalized iPod," and noted criticism of the gift by an "etiquette expert," but did not mention that the White House reportedly said Queen Elizabeth asked for the iPod.
In an April 1 article, the Politico reported that President Obama presented Queen Elizabeth II with "a personalized iPod," and added, "The bestowing of the Royal iPod brought a cringe from one top etiquette expert, who said it confirmed that Obama hasn't figured out presidential gift giving." But while Politico staff writer Nia-Malika Henderson noted criticism of the gift by "etiquette expert" Anna Post of the Emily Post Ins ute, Henderson did not mention that the White House reportedly said Queen Elizabeth asked for the iPod that Obama gave her.
Indeed, while the Politico article reported that "perhaps surprisingly for folks in the U.S. the queen is no stranger to the iPod, because she already has one," it did not point out, as was reported earlier that night on Fox News' Special Report, that according to the White House, the queen requested a video iPod because she did not yet have one of that type.
Still ignorant of what she was given, eh. One would think after being called ignorant and told there was more to the gift, you might think to find out what it might be.
Instead, you are quite proud of your continued ignorance.
Now she might have even asked for the iPod? Aren't you happy you got all worked up about this?
First, Obama does use logical fallacies as well. That's why I said I'd like to see a debate with those two. I didn't say Obama would wipe the floor with him, though I do believe he'd win.
As far as bad arguing... here's one example... http://politicalhumor.about.com/od/r...aughquotes.htm
"This is no different than what happens at the Skull and Bones initiation...I'm talking about people having a good time, these people, you ever heard of emotional release? You ever heard of the need to blow some steam off?" --on the Abu Ghraib prisoner abuse scandal
That obviously isn't the case, and I'm sure Rush knows it, but he'll use the faulty comparison to rile up his listeners.
Another one is this quote, "The only way to reduce the number of nuclear weapons is to use them."
Statements like that, deliberately dumbed down for the masses, so stupid people can listen to the radio and say, "YEAH!"
(Note: I'm not saying only stupid people listen to Rush. I am saying that the stupid people are listening to dog whistles on his show and jumping in the air. Yes, it happens with liberal shows too.)
This is the guy with values who would destroy Obama?
Classic
Do conservatives not realize how far off kilter they've gone?
"He is exaggerating the effects of the disease. He's moving all around and shaking and it's purely an act. ... This is really shameless of Michael J. Fox. Either he didn't take his medication or he's acting." --on an ad by Michael J. Fox endorsing Claire McCaskill for Senate for supporting embryonic stem cell research
All you need to know about Rush Limbaugh. That is one of the meanest, most ignorant things I have ever heard on TV or talk radio.

Actually, the more I think about this, the more I realize that it doesn't mean a damn thing.
With all that's going on in the world, who really gives a ?
Especially since the queen apparently asked for it.
And got another, more personal gift too boot.
There's an Emily Post Ins ute?
Holy ! Darrin sees the light!
It (the gift) could have been worse, it wasn't a bad gift anyways, it could have been a gift certificate to Payless Shoes or something.
For the record, I don't care what gifts were given or recieved. We have all these problems in the world and there are people who care what gifts were traded?
