“That is EXACTLY what David Axelrod et. al wants to hear. Exactly.

David, is that you?”

Bingo! I agree with you.

I like Palin. But Palin isn't the only game in town. There's Bachmann, DeMint, and others. The important point, IMO, is that if the Party wants to win, then the Party needs to pay a bit more attention to principle this time than it usually does.

Dole? McCain? Bush? They were not principled Conservatives. In 2012, if the GOP wants to do well, they really ought to move toward a Conservative position -- because, obviously, some of the GOP base will stay home if they don't.

There should be some pressure on individual voters not to stay home and not to support third party.
And there should be some pressure on the GOP not to support Country Club policies.
