Pardon my correction of your post and my sincerest apologies if you are not one of the ones calling Bachmann,Perry et al, RINO's proclaiming Sarah was THERE first; and various other names.
If the election prospects of your candidate-of-choice-Sarah Palin depend upon what Bachmann,Cain,Perry, Barney Rubble does or does not do, then your candidate-of-choice is a loser who does not have a snowball's chance in Hell anyway.
