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. Going at it alone might work in Alaska. Doing that on a national stage will get her nowhere.

From what others have said, they all contributed to her Pac from the beginning, to get her started, and they were being reimbursed the amount. I am not aware of who Rob Portman is, McCain I totally understand, but Lindsey Graham, YUCK. That was the one name on the list that pissed me off, which makes me think she was just reimbursing him for his contribution, especially since Lindsey Graham isn’t even running for anything in 2010, why give him money if he isn’t even running

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.

I agree with you, and the real story here is not that she supports RINOS, but that some of her supporters are hypocrits, attacking others for things they will understand when she does them.
