The Mourdock thing was a triumph for her. Mourdock was only slightly ahead of Lugar. Once she announced her support, the TEA money flooded into that race and an Establishment SuperPAC pulled out. Lugar’s position collapsed.

Downticket Republicans know that a Palin endorsement is a lot more valuable than anything from Romney or Santorum. Given Burkmans baggage, I would not be surprised to see Palin’s choice start to go even or pull ahead over the next week.

In an era of complete phonies, Palin’s authenticity is golden.

Best,

That may be her ploy here as well. Fischer was 3rd in polling behind Stenberg and Bruning, but Fischer had an internal poll she claimed moved her into 2nd place, and other polls suggest that Stenberg might have hit a wall of support.

So maybe Sarah is thinking she can push the momentum to Fischer — together, the conservatives are far out-polling Bruning, but they are splitting the vote and Bruning is holding 1st place in the polls.

I don’t think it’s all that often though you see Sarah Palin on a “different” side than Mark Levin.

Yep, her endorsement is the best there is. In an era of complete phonies, Palin’s authenticity is golden.
