Palin Endorses Alaska Tea Party Candidate For U.S. Senate
She supported Joe Miller when he ran last time, and he lost big in the general election, so she will likely be wrong again this time if she thinks Miller has a better chance now. The Alaska Dispatch reports:
Palin, who served as governor from late 2006 until her resignation in mid-2009, also backed Miller in 2010, when he beat incumbent U.S. Sen. Lisa Murkowski in the Republican primary but lost to her in the general election.
This time around, Miller has two major opponents, former state attorney general and natural resources commissioner Dan Sullivan, and Mead Treadwell, Alaska’s current lieutenant governor.
Palin’s endorsement said, “We must send fighters to the U.S. Senate who will stop Barack Obama’s fundamental transformation of the nation we love.”
“The status quo has got to go, and in Alaska the man who understands this key to our state and country’s future also has the guts, wisdom, experience and optimism to fight for what is right — and win,” the endorsement said.
Given Alaskans’ increasingly negative views of Palin, it’s unclear that this helps Miller.

Her endorsement just means Miller’s defeat will be double-delish.

I really just wish that Sarah would retire and she might do just that if she was not given so much attention in the media. The woman is a laughing stock. Heck, if she sinks right wing candidates and the far out Tea Party set, let her go at it.
