Why I'm speaking at Tea Party convention - By Sarah Palin

[RED SOUTH]

The soul of the Tea Party is the people who belong to it — everyday Americans who grow our food, run our small businesses, teach our children how to read, serve the less fortunate and fight our wars. They're folks in small towns and cities across this nation who saw what was happening to our country and decided to get involved. Thank God for them. Many of these good Americans had never been involved in their government before, but now they attend town hall meetings and participate in online forums. They write letters to the editor. They sign up to be precinct leaders and run for local office and support other independent patriots. They have the courage to stand up and speak out.

“Is she a featured writer for USA Today now?”

I’m sure you saw the Op-ed tag, so I assume you mean the level of exposure...she is becoming a force they can not ignore, that’s for sure...

Sorry, when Sarah campaigns for McCain she shows herself to be just another politician keeping the good old boy network. I wouldn’t let you pay me to go hear her. These are empty words.

This weekend, it's Nashville, but in March, I'll head to Searchlight, Nev., for the kickoff rally at the Tea Party Express III. In April, I'll be in Boston for a Tea Party gathering there. Across the country, tea-partiers will be sharing our vision for America's future, a vision that promotes common sense solutions to out-of-control spending and an out-of-touch political establishment.

The process may not always be pretty or perfect, but the message is loud and clear: We want a government worthy of the fine Americans that it serves. And we're going to keep spreading that message one convention, one town hall, one speech and one election at a time.

Uh-oh. Sarah just laid the gloves down. Time to TEA Party!

[Mr. Lucky]

We would all be spinsters if we waited for Mr. Perfect.

[GoCards]

There will never be a perfect conservative politician.

[USFRIENDINVICTORIA]

Would you rather treat McCain like the Democrats treated Lieberman?

[ZX12R]

If Sarah ends up the nominee, who will you vote for?

[justsaynomore]

You go girl...

[BillM]

Whatever...
This is like a stuck record.

[ZX12R]

There will never be a perfect conservative politician.

What? You mean we all don't get a candidate that agrees 100% with each individual conservative voter? Say it ain't so!

Let's see -

Jim DeMint endorsed Mitt Romney
Duncan Hunter endorsed Mike Huckabee
Bush campaigned for Specter.

I see Sarah's endorsement of McCain as nothing more than a big thank-you, that's all. It doesn't make her a RINO nor will it have any bearing on whether or not she runs for President. Besides, McCain is going to lose the primary and Sarah can sit back and said she supported John so...

People have to get over the “She is campaigning for McCain” garbage. Perhaps they have forgotten how she ran alongside him in 2008, or has that become a distant memory. No matter how much McCain might be hated, Sarah has respect for him because he chose her to run with him. People need to read her book, she doesn’t say one bad thing about him and she never will. If people want to vote McCain out, then do it already. If he wins re-election, it won’t be because of Sarah Palin, it will be because they chose him

Promise?

'cause I wouldn't want to be next to you.
