Endorsing The Opposition

Remember Tea Baggers, she said you have to pick a side.

I’d like to tell you about a Commonsense Conservative running for office in California this year. She grew up in a modest home with a school teacher dad, worked her way through several colleges, and then entered an arena where few women had tread. Through a combination of hard work, perseverance, and common sense, she proved the naysayers wrong to reach the top of her field, where she led with distinction – facing hard truths, making tough decisions, and showing real leadership through a rocky transition period. Where others had failed, her company had weathered the storm and settled on a stronger new foundation.

Her name is Carly Fiorina, and I’m proud to endorse her for U.S. Senate.


That's right, she's not endorsing the Tea Bagger candidate. You're shocked, I'm sure. But her support isn't without it's detractors.

After Palin announced the endorsement on her Facebook page, a number of her followers questioned why she would side with Fiorina instead of the more conservative candidate in the race, Assemblyman Chuck DeVore.

DeVore has the backing of several leading voices in the conservative movement, including Sen. Jim DeMint, RedState.com editor Erick Erickson and the Tea Party Express.

Though a handful of readers agreed with Palin's decision, most were upset.


Ultimately, Palin can do no wrong with a majority of conservatives. It's their lemming nature to blindly follow a person like her. Again, the "pretty popular girl" image translates into unflinching adoration within the Tea Bagger movement. The Tea Baggers will never admit this, but it is the establishment Republicans that they will ultimately end up voting for - this whole "we hate both parties" meme is just a poorly constructed distraction.
