But four years later Mitt Romney is facing one of the most vexing questions of his campaign: what to do with Sarah Palin?

"Mitt Romney is facing one of the most vexing questions of his campaign: what to do with Sarah Palin? "

Ask Sarah to give the speech nominating Romney.

She'll do a great job; she'll be inspirational.

And the nominating speech won't upstage any of Romney's speeches. It will amplify his presence.

He needs to do something to rile up his base
***We are no longer the base. He and the GOP-E think they can win this election without conservatives. And he’s probably right, because Obama is a disaster of a president.

“Palin’s influence has waned from the days when a single posting on her Facebook page could change the political landscape.”

dream on

Last nite on “Jay Leno”, he mentioned to “Newt” that Sarah had not been invited to the convention. Newts’ response was that no one has been invited yet including himself. So, this must just be more “media hype” or some reporter acting like Olberman, Matthews or Rather. It's a shame that you get so wrapped up in yourself that you have to fabricate articles.

Where did you copy & paste that from?

Newsweek also reported that many Tea Party activists feel that Romney is a ‘guy served up by Republican elites who speaks conservatism with an establishment accent’ and not one of their own.

He is. And, couldn't make less of difference if Palin speaks at the convention or not or whether he picks a pro-life VP.

Romney is a liberal and governs out of political expediency. A tiger is a tiger (remember that one Maha Rushie?) and Romney is what he is. Nothing is going to change Romney's true nature.

Thanks for the help. LOL

“He needs to do something to rile up his base, to make them enthusiastic. And I don’t mean just the Tea Party.

‘I mean die-hard Republicans.’”

He’s got the die-hard republicans. What’s he going to do about the die-hard Conservatives?

Whether or not she can still light things up, however, is an entirely different story.

I think that Palin purposely took a step back from the limelight since last fall. She did not want to suck the oxygen away from the GOP primaries and the election campaign.

They are scared to invite her to speak at the convention because she could become the talk of the convention and Mitt would look weak next to her. It would remind the base once again what they are missing this election.

I am sure Palin will be given the chance to speak. If she wants to, the first thing she needs to do is to endorse the candidate and ask the campaign “What do you need me to do? I am ready to help in any way I can. “

[DManA]

She needs to ask him - why are you attacking me? Do you really think I’M the enemy?
