The anointed Texas political establishment
contender, Lt. Gov. David Dewhurst, was leading in the GOP runoff race
to capture the GOP nomination for the U.S. Senate seat being vacated by
U.S. Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison. He had a who’s who list of solid
republican mainstream backers. Most state and national election experts
had already inked Dewhurst into the senatorial win column.
Yet, in the conservative voter trenches of Texas, the real who ’s who
that truly counted was the voters and a Tea Party movement that would
not say die or give up. In their corner was the former Alaskan Governor
named Sarah “I’m Not Afraid to Fight” Palin. Palin endorsed Ted Cruz,
and Ted Cruz won! Boy did he win.

It's
obvious that the GOP establishment can't, or won't learn, so the proper
thing is to kill it. Like This.

Last night Sarah gave a good statement on the Cruz victory, on Greta's show. Then she was given an opportunity to respond to former VP Chainey's statement that Palin's selection was a mistake ... a statement his own daughter denounced. Palin (respectfully) ripped Chainey a new asshole.
ReplyDeleteSomething happened there, that's for sure. Palin was, perhaps still is, a big Perry supporter. Perry was a big Dewhurst supporter and Cruz disser.
ReplyDeleteToo many ins and outs and oddities for me to be a Palin fan. She needn't explain herself, but her various actions leave me suspicious of her.
Which is a good thing. One should view all politicians with suspicion.

Tell me, Jdellen; what do need to have explained?

Thinking the same thing RAK - Palin is the most transparent politician extant.
ReplyDeleteThat's Texas politics. We like you, until we don't, and it's best to leave town when we do.
ReplyDeleteI love her politics....and dammit man...she's easy on the eyes.

Perry probably supported Dewhurst for the same reason Santorum supported Specter and Palin supported McCain: loyalty. It is not a good reason but it is also not a disqualifying flaw.
