Maybe you should ask yourself why the RINO wing of the GOP are circling the wagons against Sarah Palin, one week after she led the biggest Republican comeback in the past century, and the biggest conservative gains in history. The gains in the US House were absolutely necessary, but the most important gains were the almost 700 down-ticket gains in state legislatures and those among governor races. Redistricting is a big deal for the next decade.
Even Bill Kristol conceded a few weeks ago that, "Palin is the most influential person in American politics."
What the RINOs are really afraid of is the possibility that Palin will decide NOT to run in 2012. What the heck would they do? What if she decides to let those RINO pissants fend for themselves against this communist onslaught? Which one of their milquetoast RINO nutless wonders would be able to defeat the communists? The answer is "none of them". None of them can draw a crowd; none of them can raise money; none of them can articulate a conservative vision for the USA; and none of them can even fake the leadership traits that come so naturally to Sarah Palin.
No matter what they do or say, RINOs cannot get the conservative vote, and they cannot draw the majority of independents that just came out for TEA Party candidates and Palin. Sarah Palin can get those votes.

Damn, that was well said. The only other thing that I could tag onto your excellent analysis, is that if Sarah Palin is not chosen as the Republican nominee for 2012, millions of center-right voters will withdraw from the vote for POTUS.
Sarah has the "broken glass" Republican vote. Millions have decided that they'd rather lose to the Democrats, than ever pull the lever for another RINO.
If Mitt Huckap'lenty is our candidate, he'll lose in a landslide against Zero (or Hillary) because he will NOT get the Tea Party vote.
“Palin For President 2012 - She’s better than nothing.”
Perhaps people are looking at all of the Palinesque candidates she backed who lost statewide races in battleground states?
The defeat of all of the prominent Tea Party candidates in swing states should have served as a wakeup call. I am a very firm supporter of the Tea Parties and the Tea Party candidates, but at some point you have to have a sober analysis of the facts. Palin will do no better than Sharron Angle or Ken Buck, and these are two states we must win.
This is well said and for proof just look to Cali. We have been running squishy R's for state seats (and Gov.) and look at the mess we have. We even lost one seat this go 'round.
If folks want to vote for someone with the values of a Dem, why would they vote republican? They don't!
Outstanding, post #19.
