re: The race divided national Tea Party icons, though, as Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., backed Clawson while former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin endorsed Florida state Sen. Lizbeth Benacquisto, who received about 16 percent of the vote.

I think a chink in Mrs Palin’s armor is the fact that she damn near always will endorse the woman in any race. Sometimes the woman is not the best man in the race.

There is possibly some validity to that criticism.

Though she balances out the party, which tends the other direction on balance.

That said, Palin rocks. 2016. Just saying.

I think people rely too heavily on her and have unrealistic expectations of her. Its no big deal really. In 2010 she backed Brian Rooney here in Michigan's 7th district and I voted for Tim Walberg who won.

Agreed. The "Mama Grizzly" thing was cool in 2010, but is now wearing thin in 2014. Quite frankly, I've been underwhelmed by some of her more recent endorsements, which do seem to made made with gender strictly in mind.

T.W. SHannon, Ben Sasse and Greg Abbot aren't Females.

Besides it's like Cripplecreek said, sometimes you gotta go with someone you like, even if that is someone different than who another person would go with.

It's not wrong Per Say, just different people for the same goals.
