PALIN still has a chance?



How about that GOP race for president; what a joke. I feel bad for Romney who is trying so hard to convince the Right Wing that he is really one of them but not doing such a good job, I guess since he keeps losing to wackos like Santorum.

He won Maine (wow, what a big state) but barely; Ron Paul came in a close second (39% vs.36%) and the votes are straw votes and don’t count in the primaries. I voted for Jon Huntsman in the Michigan GOP primary…

Listening to Romney grovel before the audience at CPAC (CONSERVATIVE POLITICAL ACTION CONFERENCE) was hard to take. He reaffirmed that he will fight Obama’s war on religion and repeal gay marriage laws and make abortion illegal in the U.S., all cultural issues which have nothing to do with jobs and our economy but hey, that is what they want to hear.

Sarah Palin talked to the group and said, in not so many words, that Romney is faking his conservatism and would change his views once in office and I believe her. I am not counting PALIN out of this race YET. I think she hopes that the GOP Convention will be so divided that they will call for a compromise candidate like HER…it CAN happen…

It is still very ironic and mind boggling that to win the GOP nomination for president, the candidates must kiss conservative ass BUT to win the national election, they have to distance themselves from conservative hicks who do not represent the majority of American voters…interesting.

Around the water cooler at work, I still hear support for RON PAUL or at least his ideas…but is he electable?
