Clearly Palin's endorsements are influencing elections--one only need look at the recent Senate primary in California for an excellent example--and it would be dishonest to suggest that it's not influencing the Senate primary in Arizona.
McCain has spent the better part of the last nine months attempting to remake himself as a conservative, particularly after that Rasmussen poll in Nov. 2009 that put him in an effective dead heat with the then-prospective candidate Hayworth. His attempts would not have been nearly as successful as they have been without the full-throated endorsement and support of Palin.

Few of us need to be reminded of the fraud McCain is. But if the people who are most familiar with McCain- AZ voters- are dumb enough to vote for him after all he's done to kick conservatives, one, they're morons, and two, JD was the wrong candidate.
Tell me, do you think JD will blame Palin if he loses? I bet ya he won't.

Hayworth had gone from -22 to -7 until Palin came to town and made 4 appearances. Then 3 more on Fox News. Then radio ads running 24/7 every day for 3 months. She killed Hayworth momentum here.
