Romney’s Palin Problem: Where’s Her Convention Invite? Jul 16, 2012 1:00 AM EDT

Mitt still hasn’t invited Sarah to the GOP’s nomination assembly in Tampa, and the Tea Party is livid. Peter J. Boyer on how the snub could sabotage Romney’s tenuous ties to the grassroots—and why Palin is keeping the week open, just in case.

If Mitt excludes Palin, I will be home on election day.
I thought he was “bigger” than this.
MEMO TO MITT: Be small and fail.

I find it interesting. The vast majority of the ‘right wing’ was in lockstep agreement with Palin’s policies and vision for the future. Most of the time such a person gets elected.

But in this case, they were strangely opposed to the wrapper those ideas came in. Not for any logical reason *see above), but because it was “Palin”.

Had it been any other person in the GOP, they’d have kicked the doors down to back that person. But it was “Palin” so they did not. Right here on FR many of the people who are in near lockstep with Palin’s ideas and vision RE energy, social issues, taxation et all, saddled up and rode for the brand...that brand being PDS. Because it was “Palin”.

Now, when Romney needs conservatives more than ever in order to seal his deal, what does the GOP do?

Comes down with a relapse of PDS. Oh, they are publicly 100% behind her ideas as always...they just don’t like the wrapper they come in. Because it’s “Palin”. May they get what they so righteously earned.

She should just show up, arm-in-arm with West. It would be interesting to see how many people gravitate toward them and how many toward the RINOs.

Go for it Sarah and Alan, PLEASE!

It's not Romney's convention. This author is just flinging feces against the wall to see what sticks.

Worth repeating:

I heard too many conservatives I otherwise respected refer to her as "that idiot woman".

It’s a race to see which candidate can tick off more of his base.
