From the Trump press release.

QuotePalin's endorsement is amongst the most sought after and influential amongst Republicans. Since 2009 she has supported over 150 conservative candidates, helping to flip over thirty US House seats and 5 US Senate seats to regain historic majorities. She helped launch the careers of several key future leaders of the Republican Party and conservative movement. Senator Ted Cruz notes: "I would not be in the United States Senate were it not for Gov. Sarah Palin... She can pick winners." Senator Jim Demint noted: "She has done more to change the political landscape in America as anyone since Ronald Reagan."

But can she pick her friend's winners?

The problem with Cruz is he is obnoxious and disliked.

Probably among people who have difficulty with critical thinking.  Republicans are on the electoral upswing, obviously for all the wrong reasons, and some of them happened to be endorsed by Palin, so voila...

Yes apparently she's ridiculously likable on a personal level, nevermind her politics. Which may well translate into irrational trust about her people-judging skills.  :hmm:

My working hypothesis is that Trump is a max-level persuader so her endorsing Trump is probably like most of his campaign so far; rather smart and astute, especially in comparison to his Trained Seal Syndrome competition.

I have a horrible feeling that Sanders will win the Democratic nomination. Trump will win the Republican, and that Trump will then go on to win the election.  :(

Please convince me this won't happen.

I try not to think about it Malthus. Hilary Clinton is our only hope.

Man I never thought I would type those words.

Perhaps Littlefinger figures out a way to get past Clinton and Sanders.  :hmm:

This is why Yi caucusing for Hillary is so important. On this the fate of the republic depends.

I'm embarrassed. I've been making the mistake of associating with you. It won't happen again. :)
