FYI
I’m a Palin skeptic who’s really impressed with how she’s working. With the noodle-spined RNC being paralyzed as it sees the Tea Party show it the conservative vote can’t be taken for granted, she’s the only Republican who steps up and says what she thinks about so many issues important to me.
theres NOONE else in the gop party that is leading the charge. Wheres Huckabee? Romney? Steele? Mcconnel? If they want to be considered leaders, STEP UP NOW
S.D.? What’s wrong with campaigning in Alaska? Joe Miller needs the majority of Alaska votes to win.
No one has worked harder for conservatives than Palin. She is all over the place and doesnt change. The RNC/GOP elites wouldnt even allow her to speak at the convention last year.
It will be interesting to see how the RNC, Senate/House leadership tries to take claim for this years tidal wave.
Just reading the other names you posted made me say “Yecchhh” out loud.
I didn’t think Palin was ready for the job when McCain chose her, and I stand by that opinion. I’ve said since then that I support her in 2012 only because there is no one else who shares my views. Now, I’m starting to just plain like her positions and her leadership.
I first met Sarah Palin before she was Mayor, have watched her since early 90’s, and like her track record concerning decision making & her sense of judgment. She was both a good mayor & governor, No joke, she does the right thing most of the time, doesn’t give a hoot what the repub party thinks, and there are only a few politicals that can hold a candle to her record.
I first heard of this event on this evening's local San Diego news. It was said the event will benefit former combat veterans running for congress including John McCain. I guess it's just a generic fundraiser and not state specific.
((((PING))))
CNN BREAKING NEWS.......
“Gov. Palin and Joe Miller at Combat...”
oops forgot the “sarc”
They are the same place they were when they were young men and the call to service went out: they are nowhere to be found. The same goes for their sons. Correct me if I am wrong, but aside from a brief stint in the Army for McConnell which he weaseled out of, there is not a day of military service either among the fathers or sons. Don't look for guys like these at events like those. They don't fit in and they know it.

I don't remember where I read it. Could have been local news?
Whoa, Darkwolf.
You're going to be labeled a Sarahbot by the lil' insect, the outhouse dweller, from the North West.
Back to your point, she is working very hard for candidates all over the Country and is making a big difference.
Those real conservatives that get elected will remember in 2011 when the primaries really get hot.
Tom “Top Gun” Watson, running to beat Liberal Lois Kapps, should be there, not sure if he will be.
