Former Alaska governor Sarah Palin proved again today that she has the chops to thrill a conservative crowd like almost nobody else.
In her speech at the Conservative Political Action Conference, Palin delivered a series of snappy one-liners and pointed jibes, aimed both at liberals and the GOP establishment, that earned her plenty of applause and cheers.
But the clearest sign of Palins real power was the man on stage before her: Texas GOP senator Ted Cruz. Cruz, who surprised the crowd by introducing Palin, noted how crucial her endorsement was in his Texas GOP primary race against lieutenant governor David Dewhurst. I would not be in the U.S. Senate today if it were not for Governor Sarah Palin, Cruz said.
Matt Mackowiak, a Texas-based GOP strategist, agrees that Palin is a formidable player in political races. Where she has greatest impact right now is in primaries, where she chooses candidates and campaigns for them and brings enormous earned media and fundraising and tea-party support, he says.
But with no Senate races in 2013, except for a special election in Massachusetts, there will be little opportunity for Palin to make a splash with endorsements.....

You know, a normal family with a mom paying the bills out of a checkbook knows you need to balance the checkbook by shopping wisely without borrowing themselves into the poor house. This is a basic conservative thinking and somehow this kind of thinking drives liberals insane.
Whatever her next step is, I just hope it’s on a path that leads to the White House.
BTTT
How many times have we heard THAT?
I don't know if that NRO writer can think out of the box...
Gee, she can be making speeches in states and help encourage grass-rooters to run, etc etc. And that is the 1st idea out of my fertile cranium, I can only imagine what she has in store for 2013 out of hers. Waiting for 14' is way to long, you have to hitting the ground running now IMHO...

Have you noticed that Leftists constantly battle reality?
In economics, they believe that government spending “multiplies,” and creates wealth.
They believe that people can change sexes.
That men are the same as women.
That morality is relative.
That ugliness is beautiful.
They battle Reality, because Reality is Truth.
And Truth is God.
There are plenty of opportunities for Sarah to contribute to the conservative cause between now and 2014. Every county, every state has a GOP fund raiser two or three times each year. Here in the Ozarks, she’d be SRO at one of these events.
Ping!
I don't know what the future holds.
But I do know she will continue to cause The Democrats and those Stupid Republicans to lay awake at night.
Go Sarah!
Whatever her next step is, I just hope its on a path that leads to the White House.
Au contraire! Now's the time to start setting up for Congressional and Senatorial elections in 2014!
Only if they’re doing a new reality show.
There's always one in every crowd.
Whats a guy gotta do to get on the Sarah Ping List?
Onyx and I hold her Ping List
So if you want Delta I can add you to Sarah's Huge List ^.^
Palin bump.
Go ahead and put me on.
I’ve liked her style since day one and she is very easy on the eyes.
Roger that Delta you are on! :)
