If Sarah Palin had been on the ballot for the straw poll at the Conservative Political Action Conference, there is little doubt she would have won.

The former Alaska governor received far-and-away the most spirited and enthusiastic reception at this convention of about 10,000 conservative activists.

She drew the audience to its feet more than a dozen times during her keynote address on Saturday.

I don’t know. Newt was pretty close.

That's blasphemy, sir. You should be horse whipped for that comment. LOL!

I have said this for three years now: To gauge the threat measure the heat. The Occupy Slime waited for her because they, like all Leftists, know that she is a clear and present danger to the Statist agenda. It’s easier for them to know, than it is for us to know. Ever play chess? If you want to see the threats, turn the board around.

Question

Palin ran with that great statesman John McCaine who at the last minute tried to turn to the right ....can anyone say that Mitt is all that much worse than McCaine?

The title is so true. I watched a lot of the CPAC convention, and no speaker was as electrifying as Sarah Palin. It’s a shame she decided not to run.

I believe that Mitt is much worse than McCain because of the incredible smear tactics, and his Progressive track record.

I think Mitt is a traitor. I would rather spit on him than vote.
