If you believe that, then Sarah has a bridge to nowhere to sell you, that she supported before she was against.
I don’t mean to knock Palin, just that EVERY CANDIDATE (and potential one) has had some controversial positions, some flip flops, and some boneheaded moves.
Do you understand the difference between flip flopping on philosophical principle and merely changing your view on a particular legislation?
The latter kind of change is in fact the result of maintaining principle—once you’ve seen that the particular instance is not consistent with the original, unchanging principle.
So Palin did the opposite of what RINOs do.
Yes, don't forget that in 2008, Sarah opposed deporting illegals and supported a path to citizenship. Now, not so much.
