Backing RINO’s? Look, she needs backing from prominent Republicans if she wants to compete on a national level. If strategy dictates that she donates to people who are less-than-conservative, so be it.

Then she will have to sacrifice any conservative principles to gain national support. That's the same syndrome the rest of the OP has fallen into over the years.

‘Then she will have to sacrifice any conservative principles to gain national support.’

I don’t believe that. The Republicans in office when Reagan was President weren’t all hard-core conservatives, but he welcomed them (and was adamant about his 11th Commandment as well). With Sarah being the most popular conservative in this country, perhaps the RINO’s will have to abandon some of their RINO principles to gain HER support.

That isn't true. Did Obama sacrifice his Marxist principles when he got elected with the support of moderate Democrats and Independents? Sarah Palin can still be her own person should she be elected president. In fact, I would trust her to stay true to her principles far more than any other talked about candidate for president.
