“Sorry to hear this, let’s see who Sarah endorses.”
IMO her endorsement power was at the lower level like Senate or House seats. If she endorses at the top level it could hurt her where she is most effective.
Of course, I believe her endorsement abilities may be diminished now that she is not running for POTUS. I believe the much, not all or most, of her endorsement power lay in her perceived run for POTUS by her base. With her out of running, her effectiveness will be diminished some...maybe very little...maybe a lot. I don’t really know, I just suspect it will.

Correct.
Palin really was our only chance in this election, and whoever got her to back out must be grinning from ear to ear right about now.
