It must irk the NRSC knowing that Palin is helping to raise funds for the Seward House in Auburn NY, and the IGHL on Long Island, and they are stuck listening to Gingrich at their fundraiser. It's their own fault, they demanded an answer, and weren't willing to wait a few days.

GO SARAH GO!

She's going about doing her job as Governor, but also accepting awards and doing her part to help other conservatives. AMongst the tens of millions of Americans who hold fast to, and understand our traditional values, roots and strength...her strength and influence will only grow...and be enhanced as the liberal left and media continue to try and attack her.

If she can clarify her stand on border security and immigration, and dump the populist schtick on economics, then she’s a no-brainer for President in 2012. Everything else she is rock-solid conservative on.
