Governor Palin, the previous vice-presidential candidate was shut out by Romney, from the convention, as I think the tea party in general was.
Palin did give us our only Senate pick up with long shot Deb Fischer against Senator, war hero with the Medal of Honor, and navy SEAL, Bob Kerry, and she gave us Ted Cruz over Dewhurst, along with house seats, Palin had a pretty good election.
Romney was a disaster for the GOP, he left so much on the table.
Or, if the Democrats cause them to fear that their most basic needs will be a problem. Fear is a tremendous motivator and the Democrats are masters of using it.
Okay, were Fauxcahontas and Sarah on the same ballot somewhere and I missed it?

“Understand yourself and understand your opponents, and in one hundred battles, you will never be defeated.”
You are looking and trying to understand. You are looking deep. You are way ahead of people who were paid lots of money to win elections.
Correct.
Palin was on the sidelines this election.
That is a cheesy kind of dishonest post, you are incorrect and were disagreeing with me, not agreeing with me, you lied.
The best news of the entire 2012 cycle came from Governor Palin’s efforts.

Palin helped us immensely in ways that will pay off for years, Mitt was a disaster for us and hurt the entire ticket.
Yes. Every $5 sent to FR is a better investment than $50 sent to the RNC, that's for sure. I also try to link as many relevant conservative articles as possible (from Drudge, Breitbart, etc.) to my Facebook page.
It doesn't matter whether it's TV, newspapers, or electronic media, it's one-sided right now. Even 50% of FoxNews is corrupt (Geraldo, Shep Smith, half of O'Reilly, etc.)
The libs / progressives have had a plan, and have executed it incrementally for several decades. Now they control every kind of medium aside from just news and politics, from comedy channels to GQ and other fashion mags, etc. Through academia, they've even taken over things like Nat Geo and Scientific American.
Adelson and other big donors should be spending bundles of $$$ buying up old media outlets, or starting up new ones. If they don't do it, megalibs like Buffett, Soros, or the Google guys will.
Well I guess I disagreed with you, but I didn’t mean to.
:D
Palin wasn’t completely engaged this time was my point.
Sorry if I misunderstood you.
Palin was having to be a loyal republican as an anti-Reagan, anti-Palin, anti-conservative candidate was going to win the primary, she had to try not to outshine the charisma challenged Mitt, and also not destroy him with making the contrast between their politics obvious.
Palin did what she could by getting involved in moving the party right, in the primaries involving the house and senate, and trying to stay out of the presidential level limelight.
When it was done, we got some great victories from her, she didn’t cause trouble when Mitt banned her from her own party’s convention, and she managed to not formally endorse him, while speaking positively of him at the same time.
Palin did a good job and let Romney/Rove be Romney/Rove.
In 2014, hopefully Palin and the tea party can do what they did in 2010.
Not a problem.
One nice thing about the last election is it was pretty much all the moderate GOP-lite.
And they crashed and burned.
This sets up an epic struggle: The GOP establishment with latino roots, vs the Tea Party.
Or possible a combination of those two.
Either way, this race will start early, involve a BUNCH of very prominent people, and certainly the platform will do some changing.
I for one, would very much like to see many more American jobs.
But that is just me.
Mitt Romney defeated Mitt Romney. He was simply a terrible candidate, and it’s time to stop blaming everybody else.
Willard’s problem is he brings nothing to the table...
Nothing for the Conservatives and TEA Party...
Are there no men or women of principles in the GOP ???
Other than Sarah ???
Is she running in 2016 ???
(Vanity) Election Demographics and the Manosphere
Cheers!
Sheeeeyit. Scott Brown is as "moderate" as a moderate Republican gets.
That is to say he's as Liberal as a Liberal gets.
The fact that he couldn't beat a lying fake lawyer (or is that a fake lying lawyer?) who most likely got ahead in her career by taking a spot designed to help someone else get ahead in his or her career by tilting the playing field in his or her favor speaks more for the folly of Moderatism than it does about The Tea Party.
1. Obozo’s unemployment is not down it is UP. And food stamp rate is through the roof. The numbers published by the BLS are totally conjured like Obozo past (as presented).
2. OWS defeated no one. The Tea Party was the only reason that Romney was as close as he was.
3. The 2nd Enemy is the GOPe in DC. The only path out of this mess is to defeat DC (both parties) and return the center-of-gravity of US government back to the states. No other option.
4. Current path by left is total destruction of the US. That was/is Obozo’s plan from the beginning.
5. The media must be exposed for what they really are. Traitors.
