Thank You Sarah Palin

The Resurgent ^ | 2/2/2016 | Erick Erickson

First Sarah Palin endorsed Donald Trump at a time she had negative 11% favorables with the GOP.

Then she missed the first event of the day following her endorsement.

Then she blamed her son being involved in a domestic incident on Barack Obama's treatment of veterans, turning off a lot of veterans in the process by suggesting those who came back from overseas were no longer able to control themselves and were not culpable for their actions.

Then she went to a Trump rally the day of the election with tons of undecided voters and started attacking Congressman Steve King, one of the most popular politicians in Iowa.

It was really an amazing spectacle. Sarah Palin then turning on Ted Cruz pretty rapidly and attacking him as unlikable, etc. was almost as pathetic as Mike Huckabee and Rick Santorum showing up at Trump's rally.

Sarah Palin did a huge favor for both Ted Cruz and Marco Rubio. She should really be thanked for leading the carnival barker wing of the party to Donald Trump.

Ted Cruz enjoy your tainted victory. It will be your last.

[freedomjusticeruleoflaw]

EE... Go to hell.

Rubio should send Sarah a nice fruit basket because she helped him get many votes that switched from Trump, thanks to her screeches.

[datura]

I don’t care if Ted wins the nomination and the presidency. I will still consider Erickson to be a total POS.

I haven’t read anything from him attacking anyone on the other side.

Let’s see what he has to say next week.

Carson’s all over Facebook writing about Cruz’s dirty trick. Not one conservative commenter has mentioned it.

Sarah who?

[Paulus Invictus]

Palin had little to no influence over the Iowa voters. You are jumping on the RAT’s band wagon by attacking her.. She is a true conservative.

[robowombat]

I don't know that it will be. This is a very unpredictable year and South Carolina should be very interesting. Cruz put together a very effective organization to run the ground game in Iowa. Rubio has been endorsed by the ‘establishment Republicans’ and in SC that still carries some weight. What sort of organization Trump fields to get out the vote and not just count on enthusiastic crowds at rallies converting to to numbers on primary day will be the decisive factor. I suspect the GOP race will yaw back and forth as it heads towards Super Tuesday.

“Ted Cruz enjoy your tainted victory. It will be your last.”

The overwrought melodrama of that brought a smile and a chuckle.

Thanks.

>> Sarah who?

Oh, you know Sarah. She’s that auburn-haired Alaskan reality teevee chick that has booked a date with irrelevance in a year or so.

LOL!

All that’s missing was the Darth Vader helmet and cape. :-)

Erick Erickson?

No Thanks.

Candidate for Biggest Douche in the Universe.

Cruz will go down in US political history as the Nixon of the 21st century who brought dirty tricks up-to-date and masterfully used them.

[HotHunt]

"....amazing spectacle..."

Gee, apparently Erikson doesn't like Palin or Trump.

[ScottinVA]

"Ted Cruz enjoy your tainted victory. It will be your last."

[hollyweed]

Because no one cares. Carson is a great guy but is in way over his head. He looks like a whiner and loser. It’s over for Ben. That’s why no one is talking about it. You polled at 10% and you got 9%. It’s a nothing burger.

[Mozilla]

Go Palin.

Um....Sarah Kardashian? Famous for being famous....and McCain's coattails.
