Gulf Oil Spill Opens 2012 Door For Sarah Palin & Closes For Obama
Governor Palin 4 President ^ | Doug Patton

Say what you will about her political choices, but Sarah Palin knows how to spot winners. She picked Scott Brown for U.S. Senate in Massachusetts, then supported Rick Perry over Kay Bailey Hutchison for governor of Texas. She endorsed Carly Fiorina, former CEO of Hewlett-Packard, for the Republican U.S. Senate nomination against uber-progressive California Democrat Barbara Boxer.

Palin’s endorsement of Marco Rubio for U.S. Senate in Florida helped drive fickle Charlie Crist out of the GOP primary race. And it will be very interesting watching her campaign for Republican Pat Toomey over Democrat Joe Sestak in Pennsylvania’s Senate race. But probably her most dramatic political choices this year have been Sharron Angle to face Harry Reid in Nevada and for Nikki Haley to be the next governor of South Carolina.

Isn’t NV one of the early presidential primary/caucus states - the first in the West or something like that?

Yes the dems pushed that so dems ala Reid could have more rope to hang themselves with..heh

Reid has NO positives to speak of, so will continue to attack

Angle will point out all of Reid's faults and bad decisions he made effecting NV and the whole country.

He has a following in NV, those who he brought pork and of course the Mob connected voters.

And of course the LEO in Searchlight that wouldn't arrest a SEIU dem for throwing eggs at the TPX bus.

You know many in positons of authority in NV are scared to death to go aginst Reid.

first we would need the Cubans to have a big offshore spill so the NIMBYS in Florida will finally figure out that a gulf drilling ban is pointless

I don’t recall Palin as having endorsed Scott Brown, but I could be wrong; old age, etc...

yes but the article is incorrect Palin never endorsed Angle before the primary. She did however give her a shoutout after the election and most likely will endorse her in the general. also I don't believe Palin has ever formally endorsed Rubio. there again she has mentioned him favorably many times but never a formal endorsement. I could be wrong about Rubio. but in Nevada she stayed out of it because all three candidates were running as conservatives.

She endorsed him on Hannity a couple days before the election. remember the dems in Mass were trying desperately to link Palin to Brown. they thought it would hurt him. Mitt was also behind the scenes keeping Palin out of that race. but she made no facebook endorsement.

Yes,

which is why Mitt Romney has reportedly been BEGGING to come out and campaign for Angle.
