Support Governor Sarah Palin

Petition to the Republican governors to demonstrate mutual support and leadership.
Petition to the Republican governors to demonstrate mutual support and leadership.
We the undersigned protest those unnamed governors who anonymously criticized Governor Sarah Palin while speaking to the press after the Republican Governors Association press conference.

Criticizing Governor Palin in this manner reflects poorly on all Republicans and threatens to cripple the party as we undertake to move forward after the 2008 election. Anyone choosing to criticize another anonymously marks him or herself as both cowardly and petty, as well as more interested in self-aggrandizement than in advancing the Republican platform and conservative principles. Furthermore, it calls into question their fitness to serve in higher office should they choose to seek it.

Thank you for your time. We respectfully call on you to stand together in unity and mutual support as it falls upon you to lead the nation in advancing the ideals of the Republican party and conservatism.

If the republican party expects to get anywhere it needs to come up with someone better than Sarah Palin. She is a retarded inbred moron, one of the stupidest people ever to try to get into the white house!

SARAH PALIN IS AN INCOMPETENT MORON. THE REPUBLICAN PARTY NEEDS TO FORGET ABOUT HER IF IT EXPECTS TO HAVE ANY FUTURE. I WOULD HAVE VOTED FOR MCCAIN EXCEPT HE CHOSE HER. SHE IS WHY MCCAIN LOST THE ELECTION. RETARDS LIKE HER HAVE NO PLACE IN NATIONAL POLITICS! FORTUNATELY, MOST PEOPLE IN THIS COUNTRY ARE INTELLIGENT ENOUGH TO REALIZE WHAT AN UNETHICAL HYPOCRITE SHE IS AND WOULD NEVER VOTE FOR SOMEONE LIKE HER!

Simply put, our family loves Governor Palin. We truly admire her deeply. She inspired us with her energy and enthusiasm on the campaign trail. She impressed us with her intellect and common sense. And we loved her for all the poise and grace she displayed while under fire. Indeed, she is an authentic and exceptionally courageous woman. The Republican Party needs her. More importantly, our country needs her. For the good of our party and the future of our country please support Governor Palin.

We very badly need true conservative advocates to bring our country back from the abuses of the U.S. Constitution we have endured for the past few years. Sarah Palin is the best spokesperson for conservatives at this time.

I am sick and tired of Republican politicians personal greed, and self-interest, they've turned into liberal democrats and turned thier backs on their conservative constituents leaving us with no voice in DC. Sarah is a breath of fresh air and I will walk away from the Republican party if it doesn't clean up its act!! We need Sarah and we need to find more Conservatives like her. It's time to be out with the old guard that have lost their way, and in with the new back to Conservative roots politicians!

I haven't gotten so excited about a real Republican, AKA CONSERVATIVE, in a very long time. And, Sarah Palin is the CONSERVATIVE that I am talking about here. It's time for the RHINOS to take stock of where they have led us so far and realize the RIGHT side is the RIGHT side and the place they need to be to win in the future. I am SICK of this Compassionate Conservative crap and so are a whole lot of other like minded CONSERVATIVES. If the RHINOS want to stay compassionately MODERATE then THEY need to form their own parties and name themselves what they are the COMPASSIONATES and leave the Republican party to the CONSERVATIVES. You remember, the party that believes in the power of individuals.

I am tired of no one coming to the defense of Gov.Palin. she is very qualified and her treatment by both media and both parties is disgraceful. I as a woman and mother of 4 have and will continue to support Gov. Palin for 2012. Everyone should be ashamed of themselves..Mccain ran a poor campaign trying to be a nice guy to a criminal, liar, and thief..No more throwing her under the bus..NO MORE..

To all the Honorable Governors of the Republican Party. Laying aside all BIAS and Gender role ID. I ask that you please show your support for Gov. Sarah Palin. This women has cared for her country and chose to try and make a Difference. She has paid her dues and now she should get the respect that comes along with this! She is a very Bright, Gifted, Intelligent, God fearing, Faith living, an honest and caring person and ONE that I feel will be a GREAT ASSET to have for the NEXT US PRESIDENT!

We need to move forward with a message for the current times, stop fighting amongst one another and plot a course for winning support of the American people. Leaking negative stories to partisan reporters who don't want any republicans to win is simply stupid. I don't know if Sarah Palin is the answer but whether it is her, Bobby Jindal or John Thune it doesn't matter. Lets get our act together and stop bashing one another while Barney Franks laughs. I am a REPUBLICAN. I always vote and donate money. I come froma blue state with brain dead republicans who get what they deserve. Stoptalking about Ronald Reagan and answer todays problems. I like Sarah Palin and Bobby Jindal. Let then lead us out of this hole.

We are all on the same side, guys, and when you attack one of us, you hurt the party. We must go back to our conservative roots to make a come-back in 2010 and 2012. Rally around all your party members. Quit the back-biting about Palin!
# 45:
9:45 pm PST, Nov 17, Donald Houghton, Washington
While so many in our party have failed to heed the call to service Sarah Palin stepped up to the plate. Those of us who would dawn the armor and recieve the arrows in support of self, party , and country need to know that what awaits our efforts is a firm foundation, not a slippery slope. If you have legitimate critisism have the courage to let it be known in public, do not hide behind closed doors, or in the shadows of the press.

I am one of the many American people who want Gov Palin as our President. She has exhibited strong leadership skills. I think she is more than qualified to do the job and put life back into the true conservatives and Republicans. She has certainly inspired me to take an interest in my party again, which was long gone until I heard her speak. Gov Palin is the future and I believe she can put this country back on track.

RGA must stand united for all of its Governors, despite narrow minded agendas of a few. The GOP depends on it. Don't let the MSM have a hand in destroy what we have little dissent we have left. Palin deserves respect and admiration which has been rightfully earned.

It is important that as Republicans you stand together. The media is finally focused on a conservative Republican governor- and Gov. Palin has represented the party wonderfully well. She has every right to get the opportunity to finally speak, after everything she has been through and how poorly she was treated. Stand together, and don't be petty.

Sarah Palin is a hugely successful Governor in her state. She has an incredible record on energy issues and is a true Ronald Reagan, unapologetic conservative. It angers me that fellow Republicans are not being more supportive towards her. The BS deal at the Republican Governors meeting was petty and disgusting. Sarah Palin and Bobby Jindal are the next leaders in our party. Other than Haley Barbour, all of the rest of the Republican Governors, including mine, Rick Perry, were just pathetic. You guys need to understand what we need to retake government and save it from the socialist thug who has been elected. No way we can do that by sabotaging our own super stars!

The current situation calls for more unanimity than ever on the conservative/Right in America. GOV Palin offers, in my opinion, the best chance at uniting and energizing the GOP and conservatives. I understand the rough and tumble of politics, and that each of you must look out for your own careers. But those old rules really don't apply anymore. The threat faced by the incoming regime leaves little room for such. WE MUST PULL TOGETHER.

Please support Governor Sarah Palin she is the future of the Republican party. This woman represents something the party has been lacking for so long. If other Governors go after her in a meanspirited way please know there will be a backlash. If you desire to run for President in the future and bash Palin to better yourself you will lose thousand and thousands of votes in a primary election. Just a heads up boys,play fair.

The nomination of Gov. Palin gave me some hope that the RNC had not completely lost its way. Ongoing, intramural backstabbing at the expense of someone to whom the base looks toward for future leadership is most harmful. I was a stalwart Republican and contributed in many ways to what I thought was a viable, conservative alternative to discredited and dangerous retrograd liberalism. The RNC's lack of conservative leadership in political thought and governance, resulting congressional embarrassment bordering on contempt, has created a more motivated, confident and self-selected conservative core which has not been well served. I didn't leave the party; it left me.

I find it very disconcerting that you are meeting as a group of Republican Governors striving for unity in the Republican Party and vowing to lead us back into power, but you are leaking CRAP to CNN behind Sarah Palin's back . . . I want to know which one did it . . . and being from Texas and knowing the backstabbing that our governor has done to the Texas Conservatives . . . I have a really good idea who it was . . . and his hair was PERFECT.

This is a despicable act that a man should never do to even another man. You also don't break a promise to all parties involved. If Sarah's press conference was to be 20 minutes, then it should be not one second less than what was promised. What are you afraid of?

Now is the time that we need to work together to repair and make this party better. Divisiveness and bickering just makes the problems worse. We have many people in the position of Republican Governor job that are good, strong leaders. Working together and finding common ground, positive strengths and building from those points is the key. It is not the time to point fingers and fall to petty problems such as jealousy and bickering amongst our own party. Now is the time to use our strengths to our advantage.

# 12:

Governor Palin is a truly professional,well-prepared, tested leader. She was maligned by the mainstream media over the most trivial issues because they could not find a true reason for condemnation. In reality I believe they were fearful of the American people realizing the true potential she represented.It might have taken the spotlight from their "chosen" candidate and made voters question their emotional giddiness. The true conservatives and Republican leaders had best start supporting Sarah Palin and one another if we are to salvage our nation.
# 11:

Gov. Palin is the first real conservative to get national prominence like this since Ronald Reagan. These faux-cons are derelicts that have defaced this nation with their pilfering and unabashed liberalism. I DID NOT vote for John McCain, I voted for Sarah Palin. I owe him everything for his service to our country, but he has done the Governor wrong. PALIN 2012!!!!
