I hope her smarts includes good reasons for supporting some RINO like candidates over Tea Party candidates. I was an ardent Palin supporter but not so much now.
Here are some for you:
1) electability
2) character
3) some of those ‘tea party’ candidates are GOPe in patriots’ clothing (e.g., the Mittbot running against Hatch)
4) fallibility: Palin is, after all, human
Why? What has changed your mind? She is still the same Sarah she has always been.
