Some of Sarah Palin’s riskiest endorsements scored major victories Tuesday for the former Alaska governor, showing off her power in Republican primaries.
Perhaps Palin’s most powerful demonstration came in South Carolina, where her endorsement propelled a major swing in the polls for Haley’s primary campaign for governor and sustained the state representative through accusations of two separate affairs.
Rather than a "kiss of death", her touch is more Midas.
It just goes to show you, when Sarah speaks, people listen. And that they are paying attention to what is going on in the country. They are sick of the politics as usual.
Sarah Palin had a pretty good Super Tuesday. Three of the four candidates she endorsed won, bringing her record in tightly contested races to 8-3 overall this midterm election year.
Except for her former running mate John McCain and a lucky few who get a personal appearance, most of Palin's picks benefit mainly from some money, a Facebook post and a few tweets. But even that tends to pack a wallop.
Quote:
Contrast this with Obama who is 0-4 for candidates he has endorsed ( 0-5 if you count his shot at getting the Olympics in Chicago).
Since she endorsed McCain and campaigned for him in Arizona, he is out to a comfortable lead against Hayworth.
Try again.
Who cares? The endorsement that mattered is the one she lost
