Sarah Palin boldly, clearly and sharply articulated the stakes in the 2012 election on Saturday when she addressed a "Patriots in the Park" Tea Party event. The event took place in Michigan and was sponsored by the Michigan branch of Americans for Prosperity and the Willow Run Tea Party Caucus.
“2012 is a race between the party of big government and the party of big freedom,” Palin said, contrasting the Republican party's vision with that of President Barack Obama's.
In reference to Obama and his policies, Palin said there was something “wrong with someone” who would want to fundamentally transform a country that was good and strong.
"If that’s what you call hope, then we want change,” Palin said.
Palin dubbed Obama’s economic policies as “Obamanomics,” called it a form of “crony capitalism on steroids” and said some aspects of Obamacare should be dubbed “no bureaucrat left behind” for the thousands of I.R.S. jobs the bill has created to collect what the Supreme Court found to be a tax.

She's half right; as has been hashed out before many are not sold that Big Freedom is anywhere on the ticket, particularly for president. However having been driven off that hill we must ardently begin the fight to whip up governors and state representative to stand for freedom.
Yeah? which side stands for big freedom? They’re both big government kinda guys.
Sarah will be around when the country goes broke...
I have not always agreed with everything Sarah Palin has said, nor with all of her positions however I will be the first to say that she indeed galvanized the Tea Party and energized patriots across America to stand up and fight, and we saw the results in 2010 when the ‘Rats lost their grip on the House.
Sarah has endorsed candidates that I would not want to see returned to Office, but that is her choice, she is certainly more conservative than anyone who was in the primary race or might have entered.
Now having said all that, personally I think that for any conservative who has stood with Sarah Palin for even five minutes, supporting her with time, effort, money and prayer (not necessarily in that order), to now choose to vote for the ‘lesser of two evils’, to support Romney who is diametrically opposed to nearly everything Sarah Palin and the Tea Party stand for, who has given every indication that she will be shunned and shut out at the upcoming convention in Tampa, no true supporter of Sarah could possibly consider stabbing her in the back and abandoning her by becoming a Romney turncoat.
Now it is true that Sarah will most likely support Romney if he becomes the nominee, and will vote for him, but being in the public eye, she has little choice.
We The People, have a choice and our choice does NOT have to be a default vote for Romney.
Write in Sarah Palin.
Willard doesn’t even look you in the eyes when he shakes your hand.
Sarah doesn’t have to stand on the ballot box.
A bullet box may be lying around instead.
So far, Big Slavery is ahead by a couple of lengths.
I like that!
Dang, I hope my prayers work.
Still praying for a miracle in Tampa!
Write in Sarah Palin.
That won’t help and would probably help elect Obama. A third party run might be another story. The GOP has abandoned the conservatives. It’s time for conservatives and all freedom loving people to abandon the GOP. If anyone, ever, could mount a successful third party run, it is Palin.
Sadly, most sheeple really believe that slavery is freedom and freedom is slavery.
They truly believe they are “freer” when the government provides for their needs.
Because she has made herself just another talking head.
You lie!
If that’s all she is, then Romney would have no trouble inviting her to the convention.
Capiche?
Once you get past the Presidential vote, Sarah’s right. We have conservatives downticket who need our support even if the presumptive candidate is a socialist.
