Formally making a deal with Palin is the smart, sensible, grown-up thing for the Romney campaign to do. So of course, it hasn’t happened yet. And I’m not holding my breath for it.

I will make NO donations to the campaign or the RNC until she speaks.

“...making a deal with Palin is the smart, sensible, grown-up thing for the Romney campaign to do...”

It is also the politically savvy and wise thing to do but that isn’t Gov.Romney. He is not a real politician, and whether that is good or bad, it is yet to be seen if he learned anything from being a failed governor.

I believe he is afraid of her and what she represents: the conservative heart of America.

And we’re both correct in our assessments on it happenning - like when Hell freezes over!

LET PALIN SPEAK!

LET PALIN SPEAK!

LET PALIN SPEAK!

If there was a movement, a ground-swell of support for her to speak, then RR couldn't refuse. They really couldn't. It would also be a litmus test for Romney's ability to endorse Tea Party demands, testing whether he has the inner strength to make "unsavory" conservative decisions that go against his grain. Let the ground-swell BEGIN!!!

LET PALIN SPEAK!

LET PALIN SPEAK!

LET PALIN SPEAK!

Fantasy scenario:

In the news, and up to the last minute, it is known that she won't speak.

At the convention, John McCain steps up to the microphone. After a long silent pause, he slowly looks from left to right...and then quite suddenly, and with increasing volume, he announces that he will relinquish his speaking time tonight to, "That tireless worker, an inspiring patriot.....from the great State of Alaska, I give you my former running mate and good friend, Governor Sarah Palin!!

Shocker! .....a roar goes up that can only be described as explosive, followed perhaps by the greatest and longest standing ovation in Republican convention history!

ELECTRIC!!

What a night!

Well, I can dream, can't I?

It doesn't matter. Palin does not have to attend their little party to be heard by the American people, she has her own relationship with us. Palin will still support the establishment because they are our best hope. They will continue to ignore the grass roots as we slowly envelop them.

At first I was really pissed off that she wasn’t invited to speak(Or whatever the story is) but after thinking about it I have come to realize its a blessing in disguise. Sarah doesn’t need to kiss Romney’s behind in order to get to speak at the Convention. If Romney loses, they can’t put the blame on her, they can’t do to her what was done in 2008. This way she will focus on the Senate and the House(Both of which we need to take control besides the Presidency) and that is where she will make the most difference. If they don’t want her at the Convention that’s fine, I won’t watch, it will be a bore fest anyway, it’s their loss, NOT hers
