'Roaring to Nov.': Palin Touts More Endorsees After Nebraska Victories
Breitbart's Big Government ^ | May 15, 2014 | Tony Lee

Posted on 05/15/2014 6:30:02 PM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet

After Nebraskans Ben Sasse and Pete Ricketts, both of whom were endorsed by former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, won the GOP Senate and gubernatorial nominations, respectively, on Tuesday, Palin's political action committee, SarahPAC, rolled out a video that highlighted some of her other endorsements for this election cycle.

Sasse crushed his opponents and won by 27 points, but Ricketts won by just over 2,000 votes, and Palin's endorsement may have made all the difference. A Harper Polling poll in February found Jon Bruning with a 19-point lead over Ricketts, who said many Nebraskans on the fence went over to his side after Palin backed his candidacy.

"I can't tell you how many people have come to me and said, 'I was having trouble making up my mind [in the contested primary] and I saw the endorsement form Governor Palin, and I'm on your side,'" Ricketts said on Monday.

This was not the first time Palin has been successful in the Cornhusker state. As Breitbart News reported, "Palin proved how valuable her endorsement was in Nebraska during the 2012 election cycle" when the GOP establishment "spent millions backing Jon Bruning, while Washington's conservative establishment, including Freedom Works, spent millions backing Don Stenberg"(continued)

I do have to commend you for not dragging in DUmpster/DailyKos/Politico slurs, using your own original stuff instead. We can stand some ordinary Palin-bashin' around here. It's good practice.

Some people around here feel that just because they've been on the board for a couple of years, that they can get away with smears straight from the DUmpster, or from Valerie Jarrett's Palin Talking Points memo...

But 'it's true', they lied.

Your use of punctuation, like your low, sloping forehead, denotes your intellectual shortcomings.

She never ran for pres.... Exactly. Funny, that. She would have won 99.999988% of the vote and saved us from Kenya, round II. ‘Cause, you know, all Americans breathe in heavy anticipation of her every word, piles of jelly, waiting to do as “our Sarah” indicates.

I asked Nikki. She said she won her own election. By the way, your bizarre use of the double .. is rather gauche.

Those in the WH could not possibly care less about Sarah. They won!!!!! TWICE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Freepers who prayed for Ted Kennedy, by the way, helped them win. That mindset explains why we lose; we don’t have the cold, psychotic, vicious hearts to win when total warfare is at hand.

If you read carefully, you’ll see (I believe) that I’ve not maligned SP. I would crawl over crushed glass to vote for SP, or anybody (save Christie) with an R next to his or her name. I don’t malign SP; I malign her lunatic fans who worship her as God Almighty, only more perfect. She is not a magnificent super-human, sent by God to save planet Earth. She is a pol. She has some good, and some bad. But when she makes a misstep (writing on her hand) I do not leap forward to explain how it is a move beyond brilliant that was designed to get the media talking about the Kenyan’s teleprompter. THAT is a sign of a delusional, cult-worshipping, middle-aged man who can’t stop *&(@urbating with SP’s photos.

Nah, you just twisted a few tails. As I posted, they were your original thoughts, and not regurgitations from the DUmpster or DailyKos - and most all true.

I don't think she's running, though. As I posted elsewhere:

When it came to Sarah Palin, the Left burned the crops, killed everything living, salted the fields, and then sprayed radioactive dust over the whole lot.

The Hard Left is still spewing their lying venom YEARS later. They programmed half the country about how to think of Palin.

I'm a political realist. Damn, does she drive them up a stump, though, including Princess MomJeans. It's quite a useful talent.

This is why I wrote "most all true". They did win, TWICE!

The thing about the Left is that winning is not good enough for them. The defeated have to like it, or keep their mouths shut, or both.

When they think of that uppity Christian Republican b*tch out there trash-talking the Moron-In-Chief, they get the little Lefty mean-mouth. They'd have her tongue out, like in the Middle Ages, if they could.

Yes! I don’t know how old you are, but they did to her what they did to Newt, and for the exact same reasons: he/she was/were dangerous. If you don’t pay too much attention, you now “know,” thanks to the MSM, that SP is pure Satan, only worse. Yes, the left programmed the nation how to think about, SP. They DO have that power... Note who’s in the WH. And, yes, SP drives them crazy, and I like her for that. I have issues with SP (just like I have with EVERY good pol in the world — I can’t buy my dream guns because of Reagan) but she’s been right quite often. Death panels? Check. “Baptism” of mooslims? Check. There was one other thing she was attacked for, damn it! I can’t remember what it was, and she was right on that, too.

Oh, I know what it was!!!! The whole “Russia from my house,” thing. Yes, I know, she did NOT say that, but what she did actually say was quite valid. When Russia is within spitting distance, unlike northern VA where I live, it really ceases to be an evil abstraction, and becomes quite real to you. You are more likely to think about it and have serious opinions on it.

Haley was an obscure also-ran in the GOP primary and her poll number skyrocket only after Palin gave her that endorsement.

That she does... so much so to drive them to setting fire to her church while some members and their children were inside at the time.

That’s not what NH told me. Also, when Ronald Reagan made a move, the Earth shook. What am I getting from you? When sp makes a move, somebody else gets elected? A gov from a small, impoverished state? I am numb with awe. And if sp is sooooooo powerful why does not she get herself elected? She could have saved us from that other god, the Kenyan.

If indeed you talked to Haley and she didn't acknowledge any impact on Palin's part, she's ignoring what was quite obvious in 2010.

Let's pick this baby apart.

Also, when Ronald Reagan made a move, the Earth shook.

I'm still unclear as to how exactly Reagan evaded the Total Media Blockade, especially back then...

A gov from a small, impoverished state?

Only state in the Union where you don't have to pay The King's Rent. What's not to like?

And if sp is sooooooo powerful why does not she get herself elected?

Nuking from orbit. See my above post #30 - but you already did...

You are a legend in your own mind. Stunning is what a good ZOT feels like.
