yep...

my intense dislike for her is because i consider her a betrayer....

she had an excellent message back in sept. of 2011 on crony capitalism which i wrote about here extolling her understanding of the problem .....

something really changed in her after she decided not to run and she saw that romney was going to be the nominee.....she has spent her time since then supporting unelectable presidential candidates and trying to land glancing blows against romney supporters...

my deduction:

she is bitter about not running and cannot give real support to the next president....so she quite calculatingly 'threw her support' to un-electables like gingrich with an eye toward 2016 (after a disastrous obama second term)

iow, she is in this for SARAH....

goodbye, nice knowin' ya!

I'm kind of Palin neutral myself. I've never seen her as the Great Conservative Hope. But I also don't go out of my way to show what a smart independent thinker I am by insulting and smearing her.

I think she's a charming woman with a refreshing point of view and way of expressing it.

Edit: She has been an active spokesperson for the values that I cherish in this country ever since she burst on the public scene in 2008. For that I commend her and appreciate her energy and forthrightness.
Same here. I respect and admire her, and always wonder what it is about her that causes those on all sides of the political spectrum to resent her so much. Exactly what is it that they expect from her?
