"The message was sent at the ballot box and it was an historic election. We were just told that the era of big government is here to stay and you will pay for it whether you want it or not. But they can't sell it to us. So this new version isn't just the same as the Great Society, it is much worse. It is couched in the language of national greatness. That is their version of American Exceptionalism. It is an exceptionally big government," Sarah Palin said at the Reagan Ranch on Friday night.

Nice job, as expected, from one of the very few politicians extant that actually honor Ronald Reagan with their vision for America. Not a word about Egypt, as expected. This wasn’t the venue or time for a foreign policy speech and she did just fine so, of course, the leftmedia will criticize every word, every gesture. They fear this woman and their unending attacks on her prove it, daily. I don’t see Romney or other wannabe Republican presidential candidates even mentioned by the leftmedia, only Palin, who may not even run (but I hope she does).
