WIth all due respect, dude, can’t you let the past rest? Yes, Palin made a mistake backing that yutz McCain, but maybe she thought that she was obligated to him. After all, he chose he to be the VP for his ticket.
Let's talk about Ted. It appears that Ted is about the only one who can garner nearly full Conservative support around here. Yes, there is a birther faction, but if some legal finding establishes once and for all that Cruz is natural born - i.e. he never had to be naturalized - it will be interesting to see if they'll withhold their support.
