Sarah Palin to rally conservative online army

The conservative blogosphere has yet to move past the death of patron saint Andrew Breitbart, but it will get a major jolt this month from an equally provocative hero: Sarah Palin.

The former Alaska governor and 2008 GOP vice presidential nominee has committed to delivering the keynote address at Right Online, the annual gathering of conservative bloggers and online activists organized by the Koch-backed non-profit group Americans for Prosperity Foundation.

The June 15-16 conference will be the first time the event is held on a different weekend and in a different city from the liberal online activism conference upon which it was based, Netroots Nation.

And that’s no mere coincidence, say Right Online organizers.

This year’s meeting is focused on higher-level tactics and strategies than past year’s editions of Right Online, which sometimes had the feel of a crash course on blogging 101. The Vegas conference features training on video exposes to be conducted by guerrilla video journalist James O’Keefe, a session on polling featuring conservative’s favorite pollster Scott Rasmussen and a session moderated by columnist Michelle Malkin entitled “How to Use Facebook & Twitter to Win,” which will include instruction on using social media to drive narratives.

The usual suspects at Polutico are freaking out.

Gee, they point out that Americans for Prosperity Foundation is "Koch-backed" but never mention the countless non-profit organizations sponsored by George Soros.

Wonder why?

Love the graphic but I think it would be better if you put the silhouette of an Iowa class battleship.

This one has 4 turrets and looks more like the Bismark than a US battleship.

[SeaHawkFan]

Definitely not an Iowa class battleship.

[Chances Are]

Actually, we are fighting for the soul of the nation.

Perhaps you can change your graphic to reflect that?

Just a thought...

CA....

[cripplecreek]

I just found a good drawing of the USS Iowa and will make my own silhouette from that. I’m not overly fond of the font I used either.

[CatherineofAragon]

THAT I love.

[ngat]

Not even after post#8?

I mean, can this forum afford to be made to look ridiculous?

[staytrue]

ok, I believe that Joan of Arc was eventually defeated and she was burned at the stake.

I understand what you are trying to say, but still.

[Bratch]

[cripplecreek]

Better?

[staytrue]

Much Much better, Thanks.
