I totally agree with you. Either some people are naively allowing themselves to be manipulated by the media or they are the ones trying to do the manipulating.
It always seems to come up Romney or RINOs or the types who hate social conservatives. They know that if things stay the way they are now, Sarah Palin would win the Republican nomination by a landslide. It scares them to death.
I feel sorry that she has to suffer this from people, her fellow "conservatives," who should be helping her, not giving her all these backhanded compliments and slaps in the face.
A big Bingo!
