The GOP ginned these polarized radicals up again by choosing Palin and letting her open her mouth. The Palin rallies were scary, racist, filled with lies. Palin herself is responsible, she encouraged it. That's why they chose her.

But it backfired big time, resulting in a good portion of the GOP voting Democratic this time. Until the extremists are dampened back down, the GOP is useless, and nobody will see that "it simply isnt true".

As lifelong GOP (I even loved Rumsfeld), to have extremists like Dell tell me "you're not a Republican" is laughable and ludicrous.

But as long as the GOP decides that is the voice of the party, the party will have no voice.

This is ridiculous. If the GOP was playing to the radicals why was John McCain the nominee? You take the liberal bait, hook, line and sinker.

And you are just as intolerant as the right by calling Palin's rallies racist and filled with lies.

And you hardly seem to have a single non liberal view so maybe mr Extreme is right?
