I would have supported Hillary had she been gone further..
That's not answering his question..... would you have still supported Sarah Palin if she was a Democrat, or would you also have ended up like the rest of us mocking her and seeing her as the true idiot she really is, regardless of whatever political party she was a part of?
Had Palin been a Democrat the Left & MSM would have embraced like they did with Clinton until Obama came into the picture, my comment had nothing to do with experince.
But would you have supported her?
I know I sure as hell wouldn't..... I'd be mocking her and telling the Democrats and their supporters that they made a huge and very dumb mistake.
If Clinton was Republican, I wouldn't support her, due to the views she'd be backing, but I'd still admit that she knew what she was talking about, still had experience and could answer questions in an educated manner...... political affiliation doesn't really apply when it comes down to looking at the individual and their own abilities.
Dion was leading the Liberals, and even I trashed all over him...... because it was well deserved.
If Harper was a Liberal and still made many of the same decisions as he already has, my opinions and views of him wouldn't have changed much, if at all...... he's still an android bent on pandering to corporations and the wealthy while using petty and childish attack ads, while lying to the nation about how our democracy actually works, etc. etc......
I first thought Iggy had some brains and was qualified for running to be the next PM...... after seeing him in action (or inaction if you will) my mind has changed and believe he's not much better then Dion.
It's about holding these clowns accountable for their actions and their words more then it has to do with what political party they support....... these people do more harm for their parties in the long run then they do good.
If the Republicans had some reasonable and educated leader to run for president and they had some decent, well-rounded and thoughtout plans for the country, which made more sense then their competition..... I'd probably have more positive things to say about them.
But the Republicans are currently stuck in the old Bush way of doing things..... fearmongering, exaggerations, propaganda, and now with Palin they're taking it to the next level with getting the uneducated all riled up to the point of violence against their fellow citizens...... it's just not a healthy way of doing things and while they'll gain more support with the angry group they already had support from, their actions and words are not winning anybody new over...... especially when they have a poster-child like Palin who's a complete dim-wit.
I said it about Canadian politics and I'll say it about US politics:
Get rid of Harper and put somebody else in charge who's a little more level headed, and I might cut the party some slack...... drop Palin from the spotlight and bring in someone with some brains and who is also more level headed and I'll cut them some slack as well.
until then..... Palin will continue to get the mud flung her way, she'll continue to be exposed as the dumbass that she is, and everybody with her will get the splash back due to guilt by association.
I'll take that bet.
How about no posting for one year for the loser.
I say Palin will not win the nomination.
Deal?
And I'll take the bet that she won't become president...... unless she tries to take it by force.... then that's a whole other story.
