GOP Insiders Not Palin Fans


This is news? They "sour" on her? When have they ever been fans? Gov. Palin is the outsider reformer, taking on the vested elites of her party, in Alaska and elsewhere.

And while I like Mitt Romney, his healthcare plan in Massachusetts was no miracle model. Granted the Dems messed with it and larded it up but he signed that bill. There is no good explanation for that these days.

More Palin news. Palin Scoops Politico. Palin turns down CPAC (which includes the John Birch Society this year--are they nuts?) and accepts an invitation to the SRLC. And she will be headlining the Tea Party Convention in Nashville:

“Looks like both grand parties will have to court the tea party supporters because many of them are independents from the purple states,” writes Ellie Velinska at RightPundits.
Precisely Palin's appeal. Independent.

America Rising.

P.S.
(Men are worse off but this is interesting)

Since the president took office on January 20, about one million women have lost their jobs and today the unemployment rate among women is at the highest level in over 25 years. But perhaps most concerning of all, the president’s economic policies have severely harmed the small business community, which has traditionally been the part of our economy that propels us out of recession and is increasingly being used by women as a means of career advancement and financial independence.

According to the U.S. Census, women are starting new businesses at twice the rate of men and today 23 million Americans are employed by women-owned businesses. Unfortunately, President Obama and the Democrats in Congress are creating an uncertain economic environment in which small businesses lack the confidence to hire new workers.

More. Mark Hemingway, DC Examiner: Is Palin running in 2012? Signs point to yes.
