“If she had stated” I am against amnesty for lawbreakers, so John McCain and I have agreed to disagree. That is what makes our party a big tent” , or something to that effect, It might have increased our turnout.”

Absolutely! IF she is pro amnesty and anti enforcement, she’s going against most of her base. And we need to know, instead of guessing.

I take her for what she is now. She is sick and tired of all the attacks against her family so she’s out of politics. That’s not a gimmick to show she’s ‘out of the beltway.’ Those attacks were vile and she knows they’ll come back if she tries to go back in again.

She’s now destroying obamacare in a way Rush and others cannot because she has unique appeal. She’s doing a great job at what she is doing now. Why do people try to make her into something she’s not?

You guys are singing quite a Romneyesque duet here. Sarah Palin has stated her position, and you don't need to edit the parts that don't fit your position or candidate, SJB. Thanks for the opportunity, though.

Supports a path to citizenship, but no amnesty for illegals

Q: Should undocumented immigrants all should be deported?
A: There is no way that in the US we would roundup every illegal immigrant--there are about 12 million of the illegal immigrants--not only economically is that just an impossibility but that's not a humane way anyway to deal with the issue.

Q: Do you then favor an amnesty for the 12 million undocumented immigrants?
A: No, I do not. Not total amnesty. You know, people have got to follow the rules. We have got to make sure that there is equal opportunity and those who are here legally should be first in line for services being provided and those opportunities that this great country provides.

Q: So you support a path to citizenship for undocumented immigrants?

A: I do because I understand why people would want to be in America. To seek the safety and prosperity, the opportunities, the health that is here. It is so important that yes, people follow the rules so that people can be treated equally and fairly in this country.
