I didn’t support Sarah, but I will tell you one thing. ....... She will be by far the most searched out endorsement in the GOP primary. Count on it.
I wonder.
I think she was doing brilliantly until the very end. I’m not sure she might not go through a steep drop-off in “political value” for a while, then build herself up.
Sarah Palin with no presidential aspirations is an unknown quantity. If that was what was keeping up interest in her, well, of course, interest will go down now. It certainly looks as though a lot of her “strongest” supporters turned around and stabbed her in the back just as soon as she made a decision that went against their “no doubt about it, she’s running” predictions.
If I were a candidate right now, it seems it’d be hard to tell if a Palin endorsement would be a gain, a drain or neutral. If she’s no longer going to deliver even the Palinistas (the ones, you know, who couldn’t spin fast enough to start screaming “what the hell is wrong with her, I thought she loved our country?”), what good is her endorsement? And might it not even be a negative?
At least for now.
