She has always been known as a Tea Party darling as well as a staunch Republican.
But now Sarah Palin has nailed her political colours to the mast and changed her Facebook profile from Republican to 'Conservative'.
The move on the 'political views' section of her page has left political commentators struggling to decipher what the the former Alaska governor is trying to say.

One long-time blogger and Palin supporter wrote: 'I suppose one could draw a multitude of conclusions regarding this status change.
'I know that I certainly have. You can be certain that any move Sarah Palin makes has been well thought out and is with purpose.
'Could she possibly be sending a message to the RNC that they need to strengthen the conservative planks of the Republican party.
'Perhaps her promise of 'sudden and relentless reform' as addressed in her Indianola speech and more recently in her October 7th St. Louis speech is a sign that as in the past, neither party is safe from her scrunity.
'One thing is for sure, time will tell.'
The news comes as polls continued to indicate that Republicans aren’t sold on Mitt Romney and they’ve been looking for other presidential candidates.
At least eight other Republicans have seen their standings soar in GOP primary surveys since the beginning of the year.....

This is where I read it
Update by Stacy: We have confirmed that Governor Palin’s “Political Views” designation on Facebook has always been listed as a “Conservative.” She has NOT recently made any changes to her Facebook profile. This was a rumor that got picked up by us. We apologize to Governor Palin for the error.
Only because there are a few head cases around the world panting for this stuff.
Odd, I distinctly remembered at one time ‘political views’ read republican.
On my facebook page when I signed up I put “Conservative Republican” not sure if they can have just “Conservative” as your political views but apparently u can
Thanks 2ndDivisionVet.
This is bogus.
“Palin doesn’t matter now if she’s not running for president.”
Then why are you following her every move? HAW
JC
Aren’t you in the USA? It got the presses running in London and a lot of other places. But you keep on insisting she’s washed-up, bless your heart!
who needs drugs, Palin can mess with millions of minds with the click of a mouse!
Well, I just checked her FB page, and indeed she is now listed as Conservative as opposed to Republican. So at least factually, it is not bogus. Did you have another meaning in mind?
Sarah who? Oh yeah, Palin. How nice of her to drop in. I wouldn´t want to show my face.
I just read the headline of the post.
My guess on GBTV, I watched some Fox News today, it was about as exciting as a Saltine Cracker, their done, toast-el-mundo my guess is she'll be outa-there...
It means she is just messing with people.
You wish!
Knowing full well that such a move guarantees an Obama victory?
You`re really OK with the fact Obama would be the one most likely to select the replacement for the next SCOTUS justice to die or retire knowing that vacancy may be on the Court`s conservative side?
Obama would win a 3-way contest...big.

It means she woke up to the fact that the Republican party is overtaken, infected by liberals just as much as the Democrat party is. I mean come on, look who the Repubs are pushing: Mittens Romney? He’s Obama only he looks like that stretch guy from the Fantastic 4.
