Does anybody know where @SarahPalinUSA plans to be on Tuesday?
Trump will be having a major announcement with a special guest tomorrow in Ames, Iowa.

Mark my words, remember you heard it here first.
None required, the naval observatory calls me twice a day to make sure their calibration is correct.
Sarah smart and tough!
Not to defend the Cruzers, but what worthwhile candidates did these people supposedly destroy?
She and Trump are good friends.
Why not? Trump has been very outspoken in defense of Palin and says she is a fine person.
Unlike that backstabber Glenn Beck who called her names.
Why look outside the echo chamber? There’s ugly reality type stuff out there. Too scary.
Steve Deauche is one of the people I’m going to enjoy watching on caucus night.
Everuone already knows about Branstead. This is supposed to be a surprise.
The governor is already wearing Trump hats. That is an endorsement and not a surprise.
Oh, yeah, that guy’s twitter feed really ‘debunks’ it. Thanks for the insider info, Chester.
Oh, sure. Trump definitely needs the endorsements of some hack politicians or he’s totally toast.
He is not toast, but for sure he is not a lock in Iowa. If Trump wins Iowa, he might be able to run the table. If he loses Iowa(and he might) then the door is left open for a Cruz. Trump sees winning Iowa a priority. Don’t take offense to that.
I don’t at all. I agree 100% actually. I just don’t think the endorsements of local pols will make a whole lot of difference. It’s nice, don’t get me wrong, but he can win without them. Cruz is trending down in the polls and the full effects of the “NY Values” and birther issues will be filtered into the polls completely by the end of this week. I expect Trump to be heading into the caucus with a 5-7 point lead without any extraordinary outside influence.
A Palin endorsement would add an interesting dynamic for sure. Far moreso than the governor or Ernst.
The brain matter will darken the sky.
Grab a large firecracker, light the fuse and throw it into the middle!
IMO Trump will finish second to Cruz, a close second, but second none the less. That said, If Trump were to get an endorsement from one of Iowa’s key Republicans like Senator Grassley or Senator Ernst, or even Governor Branstad might get him enough to go over the top. If Trump wins Iowa it is probably game set and match.
The issue is ethanol.......
