Who cares? Her franchise lost all its value when she spent the summer toying with the conservatives, only to pull the rug out.
I agree.
Well, for one, I would care. Endorsements have virtually always been meaningless to me, but in this case, Palin’s would indeed carry weight with me. Not just because her unique brand of conservatism is aligned with mine moreso than any other politician, but also because of the nature of this particular race.
For example, looking at this potential scenario, Romney is a no-go with me. I’ll never vote for him under any circumstance. Then, if I’m stuck with the proposition of Newt/Cain/Perry by the time the primaries come to me, I’m flummoxed. I’m not remotely sold on any of them. They all have some positives and (many!) negatives, in varied areas. It pretty much adds up to a very ‘equal’ level of unenthusiasm for each, in my book. Why even bother to vote in the primary? I might indeed not, if presented with this.
But if Palin comes out and throws her weight behind one of them, yeah, that might very well enough to motivate me to get off the fence. So this could be a very, very rare case in which an endorsement would matter to me.
she lost my support when she dropped us like a ‘hot potato’ and you are correct she pulled the rug out from under a lot of us...
I doubt she will ever gain her FAN list again...
so disappointed...
