While defeating Obama is a given, my purpose in supporting Palin goes beyond that goal. I also want to see the defeat of the political establishment in DC. That whole city stinks to high heaven and I see Sarah Palin as the only one who understands the problem. Going along to get along doesn't work for me and that's what every other GOP candidate represents.
I agree with you on Palin, I hope she ends up at the top of the Republican ticket. The only remaining question for me is her running mate. My three favorites are Perry, Cain, and Bachmann, in that order.
The idea of a Palin/Perry ticket intrigues me. It would be two tough conservative governors from our two largest energy producing states. I think that has the making of a powerful and winning advertising campaign!
