She got stuck with McCain’s position in 2008. Palin will have to clarify her position for 2012 if she runs, but all her recent statements indicate a serious intent to control the border and not reward illegal behavior. It’s tone as well as words. Words have meaning, so does tone and it’s worth listening to the O’Reilly interview as well as reading it.

I can read and hear. Palin still supports amnesty. The O'Reilly interview confirms that her position has not changed from her Univision interview. She just wants people to register and "play by the rules" so they can continue to stay and work here. She has been consistent on this position whether it is an interview with Lars Larson or O'Reilly. Playing word games may fool many people, but eventually she will be pinned down as she was in the Univision interview. And that will destroy her political ambitions. I warned her advisors at CPAC two years ago that she needed to distance herself from McCain. Instead she endorsed him against JD.

She’ll have to thread the needle of McCain and his position on amnesty. I expect she’ll do that well. Most conservatives know she is for the fence and against amnesty. You suspect she wants amnesty, but I don’t hear that from what she’s saying and how she’s saying it.

If she had endorsed JD over McCain I would not have been happy; not because I prefer McCain over JD, but because it would be wrong to accept the VP nod from McCain and then stab him in the back by endorsing his opponent in the next election. She dishes out enough red meat for conservatives. It would have made her look bad.
