Palin mentioned that these “elections are more than just liberal vs. conservative or Republican vs. Democrat its come down to us vs. them the people vs. the politicians,” and Bongino is running for the right reasons.
“We need more of ‘We the People’ like Dan to take on Washington and take our country back,” Palin said, noting that Bongino was a “staunch defender of our liberties and Constitution.”
I agree 100%
Sarah Palin’s not running for Congress in Maryland, Dan Bongino is. And if he wins, she didn’t do anything more than publicize his candidacy and give him a high-profile endorsement which gave him more exposure.
So what she’s doing is looking for candidates who in her judgement will carry the Reagan banner forward. Even if they face long odds, such as Bongino does in heavily Democrat Maryland, it’s worth it to give them a platform from which to speak.
Forget winning percentages, etc. Advancing conservatism can happen when we put principled candidates on the ticket who run with honor and integrity.
The wins will come naturally over time. This is gonna take several election cycles to turn around because we didn’t get where we are now overnight.
But if we can add 5 Senators and 10 Congressmen in each of the next 3 election cycles, we will hold an awful lot of clout.
