Sarah Palin Endorses Dan Benishek, MI-01
Facebook ^ | 10/11/2010 | Sarah Palin

Sarah Palin endorsed Dan Benishek in Michigan's First Congressional District:

Dan Benishek for Congress in Michigan

There’s a lot of talk about the race in Michigan’s 1st Congressional District. Dr. Dan Benishek is the kind of commonsense voice we need in Washington to replace the retiring Bart Stupak. As a physician, he understands why Obamacare must be repealed and replaced with true health care reform. Dan is determined to work to get our country’s fiscal house in order. As a self-described “hunter and fisherman and proud member of the NRA,” he’s great for Michigan 1st District, which like Alaska, is home to outdoor enthusiasts who love their hunting and fishing. Please visit Dan’s website at www.benishekforcongress.com and follow him on Facebook and Twitter.

This is a good endorsement, but Sarah Palin should have thought twice before endorsing a loser like Christine O’Donnell. Now we get Chris Coons because of Palin’s grandstanding.

Palin also told Alaskans not to vote for Ted Stevens in 2008, resulting in the loss of that Senate seat as well.

I will not be supporting Palin for President as a result.

I’ll be voting for Palin. I will also get scores of other people, that I personally know in my county, to vote for her too.

You can go ahead and vote for Obama.

“President Palin”.... read it, say it, get used to it-—because it’s going to become a reality.

it is about time. wonder if Palin will come to the UP of Michigan. It is odd not one Presidnetial candidate or US senator from Michigan even comes here to the UP. I have heard the name Benishek, seen his campaign vehicle when traveling through Newberry to Sault Ste Marie, but I have yet to see it the same county where he resides. Must be that my medical appointments take me several times a month to Marquette or Sault Ste marie and I am also working around medical appointments.

Duh, just because I won’t support Palin for the GOP nomination doesn’t mean I will be voting for Obama.

Please take an elementary logic course.

Shouldn’t it be a given that she supports the GOP nominee for any seat that is running? Isn’t it more accurate to say that she is actively campaigning for some people, rather than specifically endorsing them.

So you’re for the “keep voting the RINO’s in” crowd? The heck with conservative principles?

A RINO is worse than a RAT.

Palin/Pence or Bachmann or Demint 2012

We luv ya Sadie, but this is a no brainer....

On the Frank Beckmann Show ( 760 am Detroit ) almost 2 weeks ago now it was noted the DNC has pulled out of this race and sending no money because it is a loss.

So she may indorse him to be Anti-Obamacare but at this point he doesn't need the money that she may bring.

Now Dr. Rob Steele running against Dingell, that is a race that could use some support. But the area maybe to "Blue" for Sarah's endorsement given part of the district is Ann Arbor, i.e. "Moscow on the Huron"....

On second thought....

She is brilliant.

She is getting moving towards reciprocal support of outlying districts that can swing a state her way.

She is pre-planning for Electoral Victory....

She is moves ahead and no one sees it.

She going after the Reagan Democrat vote to negate Macomb, Wayne and Washtenaw ( and one or two others ) that swing MI into the Dem camp and secure an electoral win in MI. If so, it is closer to game over for whomever she runs against.

Oh no!

Please say it isn't so!
