I usually always agree with you, but I think you are dead wrong on Palin. She is hurting the conservative movement by supporting these bums.

I understand why she endorsed McCain, but this is atleast a dozen RINOs she has chosen over true conservatives.

My take is she learned her lesson on challenging the machine and now is willing to do the political hustle.

He’s not exacly an obscure figure - he was governor for 16 years, from 1982 to 1998.

Yeah, the name was familiar but couldn't recall the state associated with the name. Plus, it didn't really fit with my smarmy comment, so I may have conveniently "forgot" the name.

-—”If only Palins endorsements were as good.”-—

You really need a vacation.

It's amazing - AMAZING - that you can ONLY see the good endorsements of your guys (like Huckabee, DeMint, and Hunter), and ONLY see the bad endorsements of Sarah Palin.

You've actually been forced to stoop to rumor-mongering about Conservatives like Nikki Haley, and using liberal outlets to make judgements on a guy like Branstad (not to mention name-calling at Sarah Palin). You've gotten that desperate.

There already is a growing gap between Palin and conservartives.

Only in you and the media's dreams.

There’s a huge poker game going on among Mitt, Huckabee, and Palin Some of these endorsements some might find questionable, but Sarah is looking at the long-term, big picture. There’s no doubt she endorsed Branstad to get a leg up in the crucial Iowa caucuses. And I don’t trust anyone that Huckabee endorses.

Some of these Yahoo's here can't figure out an election process if they were given the instructions, Glad that you are smart enough to see that, When Sarah pulled Nikki from fourth to first and the attacks came after Nikki, I knew then that it was more than just the SC GOP trying to field their guys...it was trying to stop Sarah as well.... This is all about 2012 for sure...and anybody that scratch their heads on her picks just have to look at where the serious Primaries are and where especially Mitt is looking to make grounds and one can see Sarah is trying to BLOCK MITT wherever he is trying to win...

When liberals think you are a moderate, you’re a RINO with a exclamation point.

Huckabee ain’t my guy. Never has been never will be. Doesn’t mean he isn’t making better endorsements the Precious though.

ROFL....So I have two big time spenders but one is a “conservative” yeah right. JD talks a good game but his voting record shows that’s all he is, talk. He is probably better than McCain but trying to label JD as a “conservative” is lame.

JD is as much a RINO as McCain except on immigration.

-—”Got news for you. There already is a growing gap between Palin and conservartives. That’s why Demint is going to run.”-—

-—”He’ll have to get Mitt Romney’s permission”-—

Maybe Lindsey Graham can return DeMint’s favor by running his campaign. Dino Rossi can be the RINO outreach guy.

Can't we find someone who didn't run in 2008? I'm throwing Palin in since she was on the ticket.

They'll probably beat 0, but it'll be another 4 years of moderate crap.

Rubio was no lock to win when Huck endorsed him right after DeMint did.

The Tea Party movement helped Rubio. No endorsement got him to where he is today without the grassroots. There was no need for Sarah to endorse Rubio. The two of them are on amicable terms BTW and I won't be surprised if she held a fundraiser for him.

unless of course they don't want you to win and know the best way to derail your campaign in a conservative leaning state is to label you a moderate.

Of course our political enemies would never do that. that is just sneaky and underhanded and we all know that marxist are not those two things.
