I think the “establishment” or “elite” is now something that people blame when things go don't their way e.g. “The banking establishment” “The NFL Establishment” “The Corporate Elite” “wall Street elite”.

There is no such thing as the GOP establishment, or at least it is overstated. Yes, there are people with opinions who differ from mine. I know different republicans from Dixicrats to Rockerfellar Republicans and unfortunately I found very little, if any support, for Palin among them. If the establishment did exists, it would not have to work very to keep her out.

Before I get accused of being a RINO, it is ironic because people who supported Palin were being called RINOs by some, I was ready to support her and I was one of the early supporters of her for the running mate nods.

Having said all of that, I hope we can get a reaganesque nominee. At least some one who believes in free markets and American exceptionalism.

Let me put it this way: what national-level Republicans did you hear taking a stand FOR Sarah in public, in the aftermath of the Tucson shootings?

*crickets*

Cheers!
