To: All

Take it from someone who actually walked precincts for Deb Fischer’s campaign (primary and general). I can attest at the ground level that Palin’s endorsement (especially in the primary) was important. Even Fischer COMMENTED TO ME PERSONALLY that Palin’s endorsement was a well-needed game changer.

(NE primary): One week before her endorsement, polite poker faces as I knocked on doors. One week after her endorsement, the mood change was far more receptive. Palin’s name came up in quite a few houses (that’s the VOTERS who brought up her name, not me) and I snagged a few volunteers in the process. So yeah, it was big.

Even Cruz stated that Palin’s endorsement was a game changer....and those two weren’t the only ones as I visited the political circuit rather extensively this year talking to campaign volunteers around the country. Trust me, from what I’ve heard in certain circles, come 2014, her phone will be ringing for help and she’ll be hitting the speaking circuit.

To all the naysayers out there who claim to be a conservative, you DO realize we’re in this together and it’s all hands on deck....right? We’ve just seen what it’s like when people get shoved out the door and we’re told to “sit down, shut up, be our bitch or get lost” from the RNC leadership. Remember RNC rules 12 and 16? Remember Romney and his advisers thinking they had the base in their pockets? Remember Palin getting the big snub? The crappy messaging and ORCA debacle? The folks who stayed home on friggin election night...AGAIN!!! The fact we got nearly three million less votes than McCain? Well, so much for the big friggen tent theory. AND PEOPLE STILL BITCH THAT PALIN BROUGHT NOTHING TO THE TICKET???? AND THEY STILL SHOVE SH*T to the base and say it’s cake (eat up you knuckle draggers).

Palin has moved into the pop-culture war (something I DON’T see with today’s GOP leadership) and she makes a buck out of it....SO WHAT you malcontents...she’s earned that buck and didn’t have to kiss Karl Rove’s butt. Palin has helped others get into the Senate/Congress/Governorships and the malcontents get cranky....SO WHAT!!!

If the RNC leadership wants to win in 2014/2016 they better start listening to the base, get up to speed with the social media, make the outreaches and stop f-ing around with the base. When the GOPe starts shoving conservatives like Palin, Bachmann, and West out the door they are saying to me that they don’t want my help. Okay big boys, message received.
