“Phones are ringing off the hook, volunteers are signing up, and social networks are buzzing,” Drogin said.
Based on the boost Mourdock and Fischer received immediately after Palin’s endorsement, Cruz will probably get a similar surge in his poll numbers as Texas begins its early voting period today leading up to the May 31st primary.
Contrary to the what is being said among the chattering class, the anti-establishment sentiment, especially among the Tea Party, remains strong on the right. And Palin is still the figure most likely to galvanize the grassroots to achieve tangible results at the ballot box against establishment Republican candidates.
She's BACK and ready to make the liberals head's explode!

The conventional wisdom among the mainstream media is
that the Republican establishment would strike back during the 2012
election, thereby blunting the influence of the conservative Tea Party
movement that propelled the party to historic gains in the 2010 midterm
elections. Implied in this chatter is that the power and influence of
former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, seen by many as the figure who can best
mobilize the Tea Party movement into action, would fade as well.
But recent events in Indiana, Nebraska, and Texas have shown that this conventional wisdom is false.
On May 8, six-term establishment Republican Senator
Richard Lugar lost his primary in Indiana to Richard Mourdock, who had
been backed by various Tea Party groups and organizations. Mourdock
trounced Lugar, receiving 60 percent of the vote to Lugar’s 40.
Mourdock had strong backing from the grassroots, but it
was Palin’s endorsement days before the primary that effectively
administered the coup de grace to Lugar and the GOP
establishment. Four hours after Palin’s endorsement, the establishment
Republican group, American Action Network, which had pledged to spend
nearly $600,000 for Lugar in the last days of the election, saw the writing on the wall and abruptly pulled out of Indiana.
Last Wednesday in Nebraska, Palin endorsed state Senator
Deb Fischer in the Nebraska GOP Senate primary over establishment
Republican Jon Bruning and Don Stenberg. Fischer had the support of
various grassroots conservative groups statewide but many national
conservative groups, such as FreedomWorks, the Club for Growth, and the
Senate Conservatives Fund, had spent millions of dollars supporting
Stenberg. Many of these groups, especially FreedomWorks, found a
potential Bruning nomination to be abhorrent.
Just days after Palin’s endorsement, which gave the Fischer campaign the statewide name identification it craved, Fischer surged in the polls,
taking votes from Bruning and Stenberg, and is now within the margin of
error before Tuesday’s primary. Palin’s endorsement seems to have
coalesced the anti-establishment and anti-Bruning forces around Fischer.
And in Texas, in the Senate primary between the moderate
and establishment Lieutenant Governor David Dewhurst and the
conservative former Solicitor General Ted Cruz, Cruz had been steadily
gaining momentum from the many conservative politicians and
organizations that had endorsed him, dating back to last year. Groups
such as FreedomWorks and Senators like Jim DeMint, Rand Paul, Mike Lee,
and Pat Toomey have implored conservatives to get behind Cruz’s
candidacy.
But even though he had cut Dewhurst’s lead in the polls
in half over the course of the year, Cruz still trailed him by 12 points
in the most recent poll conducted.
Then, last Thursday, Palin endorsed Cruz and gave the
campaign more statewide buzz and name identification. Cruz’s Campaign
Manager John Drogin told Breitbart News that
the difference in intensity before and after Palin’s endorsement is
like the difference in the temperature of Venus and the Sun,
respectively.

If you were blamed for the act of your conception then you were blamed for something that was not your fault and that is wrong. Do I pity you? No. Do I sympathise? YES. Anyone who would make someone feel bad for being born should be ashamed of the bitterness in their heart. A child is innocent. Adoption would have been a great idea there.
You are the minority. Less than 3% of abortions are done because of rape or incest. That is the case that is hyped and it is not the norm.
1. Democrats forget when Palin was the Darling of the Democrats, because as soon as Palin took the Governor’s office away from a fellow Republican and tough SOB, Frank Murkowski, she tore into the Republican’s "Corrupt Bastards Club" (CBC) and sent them packing. Many of them are now residing in State housing and wearing orange jump suits The Democrats reacted by skipping around the yard, throwing confetti and singing, "la la la la" (well, you know how they are). Name another governor in this country that has ever done anything similar.
2. Now with the CBC gone, there were fewer Alaskan politicians to protect the huge, giant oil companies here. So she constructed and enacted a new system of splitting the oil profits called "ACES." Exxon (the biggest corporation in the world) protested and Sarah told them, "don’t let the door hit you in the stern on your way out." They stayed, and Alaska residents went from being merely wealthy to being filthy rich. Of course, the other huge international oil companies meekly fell in line. Again, give me the name of any other governor in the country that has done anything similar.
3. The other thing s...

3. The other thing she did when she walked into the governor’s office is she got the list of State requests for federal funding for projects, known as "pork." She went through the list, took 85% of them and placed them in the "when-hell-freezes-over" stack. She let locals know that if we need something built, we’ll pay for it ourselves. Maybe she figured she could use the money she got from selling the previous governor’s jet because it was extravagant. Maybe she could use the money she saved by dismissing the governor’s cook (remarking that she could cook for her own family), giving back the State vehicle issued to her, maintaining that she already had a car, and dismissing her State provided security force (never mentioning – I imagine – that she’s packing heat herself). I’m still waiting to hear the names of those other governors.
4. Now, even with her much-ridiculed "gosh and golly" mannerism, she also managed to put together a totally new approach to getting a natural gas pipeline built which will be the biggest private construction project in the history of North America. No one else could do it although they tried. If that doesn’t impress you, then you’re trying too hard to be unimpressed while watching her do things like this while baking up a batch of brownies with her other hand.
5. For 30 years, Exxon held a lease to do exploratory drilling at a place called Point Thompson. They made excuses the entire time why they couldn’t start drilling. In truth they were holding it like an investment. No governor for 30 years could make them get started. Then, she told them she was revoking their lease and kicking them out. They protested and threatened court action. She shrugged and reminded them that she knew the way to the court house. Alaska won again.
6. President Obama wants the nation to be on 25% renewable resources for electricity by 2025. Sarah went to the legislature and submitted her plan for Alaska to be at 50% renewables by 2025. We are already at 25%. I can give you more specifics about things done, as opposed to style and persona Everybody wants to be cool, sound cool, look cool. But that’s just a cover-up. I’m still waiting to hear from liberals the names of other governors who can match what mine has done in two and a half years. I won’t be holding my breath.
By the way, she was content to return to AK after the national election and go to work, but the haters wouldn’t let her. Now these adolescent screechers are obviously not scuba divers. And no one ever told them what happens when you continually jab and pester a barracuda.. Without warning, it will spin around and tear your face off. Shoulda known better.
You have just read the truth about Sarah Palin that sends the media, along with the democrat party, into a wild uncontrolled frenzy to discredit her. I guess they are only interested in skirt chasers, dishonesty, immoral people, liars, womanizers, murderers, and bitter ex-presidents’ wives.
So "You go, Girl." I only wish the men in Washington had your guts, determination, honesty, and morals. I rest my case. Only FOOLS listen to the biased media.
Baaah!
