Principles such as loyalty and keeping her word?
Sarah Palin doesn’t have a chance at being President.
When she declares then you can make an assessment.
I see her as a good attack dog for the left on some issues. Let that be her role.
You are seeing this through the prism of party politics. You don't see the leadership aspect of it. Nobody is willing to get attacked 24/7 by speaking their views day in and day out. Palin has.
Romney is the MSM and Republican establishment’s first choice. Reagan beat them and won 2 landslides but since then the establishment has knocked out any conservative who ran for the job.
Palin may be able to get the nomination. Jim DeMint, Mike Pence, Paul Ryan, or someone else, might have a chance.
The one chance we have of nominating a conservative is to get behind ONE conservative early. Let the establishment run Romney, Huckaphony, Giuliani and any other liberal they can throw into the mix. If we get behind one candidate early we can beat them.
If we do get a conservative again, we have to insist that he or she not load the cabinet and insider jobs with establishment liberals. That was Reagan’s first and biggest mistake and was the main reason he didn’t get government scaled back.
