Des Moines, IA- Iowa Attorney General Nominee Brenna Findley today said she is glad to accept the endorsement of former Vice Presidential nominee and Governor of Alaska Sarah Palin. Palin endorsed Findley on Facebook today on the anniversary of women's suffrage, calling Findley a bold, sharp, selfless woman who will respect the Constitution.
Palin said, "We desperately need these conservative leaders who won't kowtow to the Obama administration's big government overreach into our states, small businesses, families, and individual lives."
Findley said, "I am excited to be endorsed by Governor Sarah Palin, who shares a passion for protecting our Constitution. She recognizes the people of Iowa need an attorney general who will actively stand up and defend Iowans, not the interests of the political elite. I am working hard, campaigning in all 99 counties, because I will put the people of Iowa first as Attorney General."

“”Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin endorsed Iowa Republican candidate Brenna Findley for attorney general today, adding a third 2012 prospect to stand by Findley in the past 24 hours.
Palin, as she has with many of her endorsements, offered it ala Facebook. She did so today with a number of other women candidates, on the 90th anniversary of women being granted the right to vote.
“Pam Bondi and Brenna Findley are running for Attorney General in their states – Pam in Florida, and Brenna in Iowa. These are both bold, sharp, selfless women who will respect our Constitution, defend their states, protect our rights, and push back against any overreach of the federal government. We desperately need these conservative leaders who won’t kowtow to the Obama administration’s big government overreach into our states, small businesses, families, and individual lives. Please visit Pam’s website at www.pambondi.com and Brenna’s at www.findleyforiowa.com.” ...
It’s been a heady 24 hours for Findley, who learned of the Palin endorsement while touring the cattle barn at the Iowa State Fair today.
Tuesday, former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee’s political action committee endorsed Findley, who is challenging Attorney Gen. Tom Miller, who was first elected in 1978. Later Tuesday, former Pennsylvania Sen. Rick Santorum headlined a fundraiser for Findley, who is a Dexter lawyer and a former chief of staff to Iowa Congressman Steve King.””
OK, I like Palin. But is she anti-male? Has she ever supported a male candidate? Is she all about woman power?
FWIW, I’m tired of women taking control of EVERYTHING.
I’m not sure I have time to make sense of that graphic. Does Sarah Palin tend to promote women over qualified male candidates?
I need to be clear: I support Palin. I’ve attended her rallies, in the VIP section:

Seems that she is becoming a good Republican. Not really sure about her honest ideals and beliefs at this point. It will help her with the establishment however...
Brenna Findley is a simply outstanding prolife conservative candidate, former Chief of Staff to Rep. Steve King. She was unopposed in the Republican primary and is running against the liberal Dem incumbent AG Tom Miller. Her main problem is lack of name ID, which Palin is helping her with.
Pam Bondi is still facing a primary against a man and a woman. Is Lt. Gov. Jeff Kottkamp better qualified than Pam Bondi? I suppose that is a matter of opinion.
Sarah Palin is obviously trying to promote conservative women. I am not worried about conservative women taking over anything, nor do I think that they are any threat to conservative men. I would be overjoyed to see a President Palin or President Bachmann.
What has happened to the men? Are there any conservative men left in this country?
Then how could you not know basic facts about her endorsements?
Unfortunately, conservatives don't always win.
Didier Says Palin Did All She Could For His Campaign
Right now, she's in Alaska, helping JOE MILLER WIN THE REPUBLICAN NOMINATION over that incumbent Lisa Murkowski on August 24.
Why has Palin not endorsed Christine O’Donnell yet.
Castle is clearly a RINO, O’Donnell is clearly a good conservative. Why has Palin stayed out of this one so far?
