Fortune favors the bold.

It does not favor cowards who quiver in fear at the prospect of a tough election. Across the globe, our men and women are fighting to the gory death against an enemy who has terrorized the world since the 7th century. Yet so many so-called Republicans cannot find the fortitude to soldier on and win a hard fought campaign for a man who fought for you since he was a boy.

You worry about liberals taking polls, liberals in the party acting liberal, and you fret that conservatives are starting to act conservative again and they present America with a real choice instead of two warmed over moderate hacks.

A lifelong Democrat, Elaine Lafferty, has pronounced how intelligent Governor Palin is, and how she is tired of the Democrat Party taking women for granted. That is the theme of our new GOP. The women are the new men. Ingraham, Coulter, Malkin, Gellar, Schlussel, Ham, Lucas, Carpenter, Tantaros, McGlowan, Bruce, the list goes on. These women have carried us through the storm of testiclus reductum Republican-lite drivel that lost us the 2006 election.

Thank God in Heaven for our angelic, firebrand women. Without them, our party would have no courage.

So follow the real Republicans, who sacrifice and toil in this election, who struggle on to elect a man who frustrated them for years. To elect a woman, who can be held up as an example to women all over the globe, as one who has truly done it all. There are those who prefer the two lawyers, and they say that that is change, but I prefer the War Hero and the Governess, who could give a damn what Washington insiders think.

Since 2006, the American economy has gone straight down, right after Democrats took control. You may try to blame Bush, but the Congress and Congress alone controls the money, and look at what they hath wrought.

You may see fit to reward the “party of progress” who threw their lady candidate under the bus after savaging her night after night, but I will stand with the elephant, I will step out from the rhino’s shadow and declare that in this election, I will fight for the War Hero who’s family sacrificed generations for me so I could have the opportunity to live free.

I am proud as a right winger, to stand with Democrats, feminists, pro-choicers, Independents, Libertarians, and host of other voters, who have rarely crossed over the aisle in these numbers. I do not fear their intellectual divergence from me, because they can be honest and true to who they are when they come to support our ticket.

I am proud to fight for the man who fought for this nation, since he was seventeen years old. I am proud, to fight for this lady, who has borne the attacks of the lowliest among us with grace and courage.  

Yet some abandon them now because they want to be popular; Because they are embarrassed to stand up against the shrill, hate-filled left; Because they fear the press; Because they want to be invited to insider hob-knobbing parties; Because they are cowards.

I will be proud to fight on with John McCain, no matter the odds, the dire predictions from pollsters, or the declarations of leftist victory belched forth from our media.

I will fight for the War Hero, who was tortured and remained with his men, knowing he could face certain death. Even if I thought he would lose, I would be ashamed to abandon him in his hour of need, for he never abandoned me and mine in his years of torment and humiliation.

I will fight for this man with whom I have disagreed so often because he has never abandoned his Nation, never struck at her honor, and never put serving his party above serving his country.

We are Americans, and that is what we should do.
