Article by Obama Mole Nicolle Wallace ~ Palin's Handler During Campaign
Sarah Palin's Handler Comes Out For Obama!
Nicolle Wallace served as a senior advisor to the McCain-Palin campaign from May 2008 - November 2008. Prior to joining the McCain campaign, she worked as a political analyst at CBS News.
Republicans Get on Board
By Nicolle Wallace
No American could watch the inauguration of President Barack Obama this week and not feel pride in the splendor and strength of our democracy. No one watching could miss the drama of this moment of challenge and self-examination for our nation—of seeing a man so well-suited to meet the expectations of the office he fills. The presidency is now within reach for any man who dares to dream big enough. It is no longer an office attainable by members of one race, and, hopefully, in short time, it will no longer be an office available to one gender.
Obama deserves our thanks for letting Republicans root for him, as well. He has created a space within his wide net of support for those of us who fought for John McCain’s candidacy by honoring the McCains at a dinner the night before his inauguration and by listening to McCain’s ideas on national security, climate change, and government reform. The Obamas have also returned the civility and warmth directed at them by president and Mrs. Bush in a way that sets this transition apart from others in recent history. This generosity of spirit has had a ripple effect throughout Republican circles. Two former senior aides to President George W. Bush said to me over the weekend, “I expect him [President Obama] to be there for eight years.” A former senior official of Bush’s re-election campaign predicted that he would contribute to Obama’s re-election effort. When I heard that, I said, “He hasn’t even been sworn in yet.” It didn’t matter. One former White House colleague who I ran into in a greenroom this weekend said, “I’m pleased with everything Obama’s done—it’s the press that’s driving me crazy.”
President Obama was wise to tap into our hunger to be part of the solution. It will most certainly help extend his honeymoon and will prove useful when he seeks to put together bipartisan coalitions to solve big problems like immigration and entitlement reform.
The test is whether the far left can stomach our support. It’s an open question: Will they recognize that Republican support only strengthens Obama, or are they too consumed with anger and hatred for the right to accept our support of this new president? Will they be able to accept a president who listens to us, or will they mobilize, through left-wing blogs, groups like Moveon.org, and their allies in Congress, against any efforts on the part of the Obama administration to forge bipartisan solutions?
There are several issues on the horizon that will force members of Obama’s base to make this choice. Nancy Pelosi voiced her support for repealing the Bush tax cuts before they expire, putting her at odds with Obama’s economic team, which prefers allowing them to expire in two years. The Obama administration prefers a national economic discussion about a balanced package with something for everyone—tax cuts for businesses to win over Republicans and small-business owners, and government spending to win over Democrats and other key members of Obama’s coalition. Some Democrats are intent on investigating members of Bush’s national-security team. The withdrawal of troops from Iraq will likely take place at a much slower pace than Obama’s supporters on the left would like. Finally, the responsible disposition of prisoners at Gitmo will take every minute of the year Obama has promised and possibly longer. In its handling of these issues and many others, the Obama White House could find that keeping its political coalition together will become one of its greatest challenges.

This is written by the same person that arranged the Couric interview , bought the $150,000 clothes,and then reported it!!! Knifed Sarah after they lost. Used to work for CBS.
These people, people who say they are Republicans, are only in the party to take it left. Much like folks who infiltrate other institutions to change them or move to red states to change them. There people ARE NOT US! John McCain is not us. His handler is not us. The Republican party leadership is not us.
This woman is no moderate no RINO. Nicole Wallace is an true leftie. She probably took the job so she could report back to “The One”.
The fix was sooo in for this election. I guess we all knew it going in, but still hoped for the best. There’s got to be a LOT of housecleaning in our party.
I really believe this whole last election was fixed. I have posted in the past how Obama, Hillary and McCain all three had received money from Soros and Soros backed causes. We saw McCain doing all he could to lose the election as Palin was out there doing all she could to win. Sarah was taking on all the things about Obama that people needed to know about, Ayers, Rezko, his stand on abortion etc. McCain was correcting bashing and putting down anyone that suportied him if they used the name Hussein, if they asked about Obama and his Muslim ties, and also made a point ot saying how he felt Obama was a man of honor. Honor is a word that should not even be in the same breath as the name of B. Hussein Obama.
None of the conservatives that were running were promoted by the RNC, they were almost ignored.The RNC wanted Obama and I believe that. If I am wrong then the RNC needs to write to me and let me know with PROOF that I am wrong. But they can't of course since the RNC leadershiip has given the middle finger to the conservatives. They call and want money and they don't listen to the why of our reason for not donating. They are not passing on to the higher ups why we are fed up and disgusted with their moving away from the base. The very base that has made our party so much different then the DNC.
If we keep letting the rino's in any way run our party, we will end up a one party country with no differences at all between the two major political parties. The Republican party is the Democrat party light. It is sad, it is disgusting but that is the truth.
After Nov.4th, McCain would not wait to kiss up to Obama, and seek his favor.
This was something Rush Limbaugh said the other day:
"McCain ran a Democrat campaign when it came to illegal immigration, global warming, campaign finance, interfering in the private sector. And this is why McCain is far more comfortable working with congressional Democrats than Republicans, and McCain will be the guy that gets Harry Reid his 60 votes in the Senate whenever Reid needs them.
You Republican consultants, you're going to have to learn something very fast: Republican voters that you need to win elections think the mainstream media is as much the enemy as any Democrat candidate is going to be. And sidling up and trying to get the approval of a bunch of incompetent boobs who have sided with Democrats for the last 50 years is not the way to engender support, ongoing support and get a mandate. This campaign never had a prayer and everybody knew it from the get-go. It never had a prayer. (sigh) I mean, for crying out loud, McCain became Sominex. There wasn't any caffeine until Palin came around and it just wasn't enough. I'm glad that at least he didn't blame Palin. I think he's a little off message. The Republican Party's message is to blame her! Stop and think that. "

Hi all, here is the truth to the Republican party. As some of you know, I am a Democrat but the party I am used too is equal or more conserative that the RNC we have right now. The liberal freaks in the DNC now is insulting to civilized people. The RNC has no chance if it stays like this, why get lite when you can have the real thing?
How this chick was allowed within 100 yards of Sarah, I have no idea!! No wonder she couldn't just be herself. I hope she'll be back in 2012 and we will see if she can fix the crap we're all in for, but first...
In 2010, get rid of the RINOs, actually, lets get off the Demo/Repub bus. Lets go with liberal/conservative/marxist tag. We are sccrewed for four years anyway, but lets mark the leftists and vote them out. Start fresh and then come 2012, take it over and rebuild.
I just pray we have all our cities intact then.

I know about Liberals being members of the Republican party - My MIL was one. True Progressive, she became a member of the RNC to "work from within". It's in their play book. All part of the socialist activists' method of destroying from the inside. Saul Alinsky 101.
I have also believed that this was a done deal election. No way was the first black (and half white - funny how that is never brought up)presidential candidate going to lose...no matter who was his opposing candidate. I have a feeling a helluva lot of money changed hands and promises were made.
I never thought I'd live to see the day that such a moment in history would be so marred by such corrupted people. I may be a cynic but I have such love for this country that I was sure it could have bypassed this.

Is there an RNC left other than a collection agency? I receive the occassional childish begging flyer from them. The flyers go straight in the trash.
I wish someone with a lot of pull would start a true Conservative party. I don't see how we can have one before 2012, but who knows. If everyone who pays taxes knew what the Dems and RINOs do with that money, there would be a political revolution in America.
This Nicolle Wallace is a real back-stabber.

Nicolle Wallace states, "The test is whether the far left can stomach our support." The fact of the matter is that she failed the test of whether Republicans and Conservatives can stomach her lack of support. Nicolle Wallace is a turncoat and Obama and his team of socialists can have her.

navycopjoe, well said thank you, I agree the RNC has a lot of work to do or they will lose more conservatives then they have already.
Yes the things coming out since the election ended have shown of the problems Palin had to deal with.

Yankeemom, thank you so much for sharing about that. I am sooooo glad you told about your MIL. I had wondered for several years if democrats were registering as Rep. just to mess with our party.
I think it is good to be optimistic haha maybe because that is what keeps me from falling apart and throwing in the towell as they say.
GREAT name for those of us that feel just like you do Yankeemom....... "cock-eyed optimistic cynic"....

Tom, what a perfect name for it...... "collection agency". I hope I remember that the next time they call me again if they do.
I agree she is a real back stabber. And if I was the Obama camp I would stay clear of her too. If she is a back stabber to anyone it shows she will also be like that to anyone, it only depends on what suits her, her love of her life herself.
Posted by: Wild Thing at January 22, 2009 05:45 PM
Les, yes she is a turncoat. I would run not walk from a person like that. She cannot be trusted even in the Obama campe or side of the fence. He sure can have her but she will turn on them too when she feels like it. ahahha And we won't want her back.

Let's put the blame where is belongs. It was McCain who hired the staff. He is/was a rino and was even during the election.

Sean Hannity and Glenn Beck are RIGHT ON when they remind US that the RINOS and GOPher MOLES are spineless and in bed with the enemy. Frau Vader, my son and I will re-register as INDEPENDENTS and this will be the right thing to do. Hey RINOS & MOLES, how about a little lubrication - even some spit will do - before you penetrate US or try for a loving reach around?

Where I come from we have a saying that "people always prefer the original above the copy." That's why people, when confronted with a choice between McCain and Obama, voted for Obama! McCain was just a weak copy of Obama. Only because of Palin did he stand a chance.

McCain is the reason we have Obama in the White House. It wouldn't surprise me in the least if McCain changes parties so he can get a chairmanship.
