I’d like to tell you about a Commonsense Conservative running for office in California this year. She grew up in a modest home with a school teacher dad, worked her way through several colleges, and then entered an arena where few women had tread. Through a combination of hard work, perseverance, and common sense, she proved the naysayers wrong to reach the top of her field, where she led with distinction – facing hard truths, making tough decisions, and showing real leadership through a rocky transition period. Where others had failed, her company had weathered the storm and settled on a stronger new foundation.
Her name is Carly Fiorina, and I’m proud to endorse her for U.S. Senate.
Carly is the Commonsense Conservative that California needs and our country could sure use in these trying times. Most importantly, she’s running for the right reasons. She has an understanding that is sorely lacking in D.C. She’s not a career politician. She’s a businesswoman who has run a major corporation. She knows how to really incentivize job creation. Her fiscal conservatism is rooted in real life experience. She knows that when government grows, the private sector shrinks under the burden of debt and deficits. We can trust Carly to do the right thing for America’s economy and to make the principled decisions she has throughout her professional career.
Please consider that Carly is the conservative who has the potential to beat California’s liberal senator, Barbara Boxer, in November. I’m a huge proponent of contested primaries, so I’m glad to see the contest in California’s GOP, but I support Carly as she fights through a tough primary against a liberal member of the GOP who seems to bear almost no difference to Boxer, one of the most leftwing members of the Senate. Carly needs our support in this crucial election year when we have a real chance of putting an end to the Pelosi/Reid “Big Government” agenda.
I hope you’ll join me in supporting Carly. Visit her website here, and follow her on Facebook and Twitter. Read up on her positions and plans to help get us on the right track.
California is still Reagan Country, and Carly promises her “Reagan Conservative” values will be put to good use for her state and for our great nation. Shaking it up in California is long overdue. Let’s help Carly do it!
- Sarah Palin
How's that saying go?
The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over, and expecting different results..
I’m sick of hearing that, that’s why we ALWAYS lose.
California has elected 3 different Republican Senators since the 1960s.
Yep, that’s what I thought. You’re attacking me from across the nation for something you have absolutely no first hand knowledge of.
Democrats (read that leftists) in my state get funding from two parties. Conservatives get no support from either one.
Now you tell me bright path, what other outcome would you expect?
Instead of taking me to task, you should open your eyes and take the Republican party to task for what it’s doing in my state and others.
I am not a "follower" of Sarah Palin.
I like her. I have my own opinion of Carly Fiorina, and I wouldn't support her at all.
Palin's endorsement will not change my mind. If she cares to make a strong case regarding why I should support Fiorina, I would listen, but I will not change my mind just because Sarah Palin tells me to.
Nobody is looking for perfection, most of us will be satisfied with not endorsing RINO’s.
Mrs. Palin is not looking so good these days.
Not that I am in a position to do this, but let me suggest a little test for you.
Watch that Bible case and who comes out to battle against it.
You’ll have a number of entities on the left that will champion what took place. The school board will. The ACLU will. The Democrat party will. Teachers will explain how they can’t have Bibles on campus. Ten kids who have been brainwashed will have their videos edited down to one that will show up on television sounding very enlightened. Ten videos of kids who think this is rotten will be edited down to the one who looks like a freak and can’t put two coherent sentences together.
Then you’ll have the parade of folks on our side...
Crickets. Where is the Republican party on this? Where is our lawyer to defend this kid’s rights? When it comes time to protest, how many will show up?
The left would have their union thugs down there in minute.
Tell me which party is playing hardball?
We are bringing wiffle balls to our games, and wonder why we’re getting our ass handed to us each election.
No More RINOS.
Yeah but it’s not like she ONLY endorses RINOS..she also endorsed Hoffman, Tim Burns, Sean Duffy, Alan West, etc etc..she has also made some great choices as far as endorsements go. How come she doesn’t get praise for those but gets bashed when she makes an endorsement that is “not popular”
“I agree with you that a person should NEVER be put on a pedestal.”
Hmmm...okay.
Don’t you agree with that statement or no?
Let me change your words around a bit and see what you think....
If it is what you think everytime Obama makes a move, then you were NEVER a Obama voter 2012 anyway! Either you TRUST him or you don’t. You cannot change your mind everytime he sneezes - He is Barack Obama - we know who he is - what he has done et al. So his choices certainly are the best to get the most seats we can get (but the Rev. Wright stuff...but that’s character also and that’s important - character is important).
He WILL have my vote whatever choices he makes. I know he is the ONLY one who can restore our country and have the guts to do what it takes - And that’s guts to choose Corzine - he knows you will be upset but he also knows what’s best and WHO can win against Christie.
Who gives a flying flip. Anybody but Boxer
Her Dem primary opponent would get my vote if it comes to it
Bit by bit, stupids...tossing Sarah under the bus, IS THE FAIL...stupid is as stupid does. I’m tired of those who don’t get it, the purists who sit there and judge. Carly is MORE conservative than the Austrian Liberal. PICK YOUR BATTLES...
Purists can win other seats, other states...MOVE ON AND SUPPORT HER. GRRRR.
I have not seen one TV ad for DeVore. I haven't heard one "I'm Tom McClintock and I endorse DeVore" ad on the right wing radio I listen to but McClintock is endorsing everybody else.
Is Carly Fiorina pro-life or pro-choice ?
Of course, I just find it a little shocking coming from an ardent Palin excuser.
Bob J is complete a fraud.
He would give us every other reason in the book. He would make any excuse not to like Sarah Palin. And when he ran out of those, he would say its because her poop smells.
All of to hide the real reason he dislikes social conservatives and religious people in general.
Just saying I told you so.
