Dick must be deeply sadden and don't forget Tokyo Rove who earlier this year said that Sarah's endorsements wasn't worth snot

Palin’s record is particularly impressive considering that she almost never endorses the favorite (McCain a sad exception). She is a heavyweight on the sidelines. I just hope she steps forward EARLY for 2016.

This article could be worded much better.
Mrs. Palin is not just “Picking” winners, she is campaigning for them.

And speaking of Rove. Has Rove been heard from since Cruz’s
Wipe-Out? After all Rove IS From Texas.

That makes two of us.

Until that time, we can expect to see her working in the trenches to elevate Tea Party candidates for the upcoming 2014 midterm elections.

Go Sarah!

The poor ticket pick was McSain, Palin is one of great ones.

Count me in as number three.

I'm very much in Sarah's corner: I've been to one of her VP rallies, I've read her books, I'm with her on Facebook, I'm helping out at SarahPac; and I'm very much looking forward to seeing her impact at the convention in Tampa Bay.

GO SARAH !!!

I don’t think he said in public, but his silence on Cruz’s
win says volumes. I googled for Rove, Cruz thinking something
might have come up regarding comments Rove may have made on
Cruz’s win... NOTHING.
The genus Rove, from Texas, witnessed one of Texas biggest
upsets ever... and he has nothing to say?

Now, who do you think Rove supported privately?

Is that an actual real pic of Rove?
If so, he doesn’t look like the bastard he is today.

Yes, in 1972, he was the youth coordinator or some such for President Nixon’s re-election campaign.

Bigtigermike~ “Tokyo Rove who earlier this year said that Sarah’s endorsements wasn’t worth snot “

I would like to see Rove go to some distant outpost- maybe the Monrovian Embassy . Probably should send Bohner with him as a cribbage companion. Rove has outserved his usefulness to the GOP.

I would support Sarah Palin in Valarie Jarrett’s position, as soon as the imposter-in-charge is deposed . However , prepare for some serious infighting between the “elites” and TEA Party electors.

You know, it just occurred to me that Sarah might be working to build the Congress she wants to work with in her first term.

I’m all for that!

In 2010, general electorate voters rejected several of Palin’s picks, including Sharron Angle in Nevada and Christine O’Donnell in Delaware. But Sen. John Cornyn (R-Tex.), chairman of the National Republican Senatorial Committee, said he does not believe that 2012 will be a repeat of that experience. “I don’t think we have any of the problems we had in 2010 in terms of electability,” he said.

The GOP-E sniffs...

I think she made the wrong pick when she anointed Sarah Steelman. I was all set to vote for Steelman and even sent her some money but after some research I found that she was the only republican that voted against tort reform when she was an elected representative. Todd Akin is the one I'm voting for, he is the most conservative representative from the Missouri congressional districts.
