Palin the Party’s Powerbase?
BySteve Kornacki over at the NY Observer put together a piece on Governor Palin and her future as a potential Presidential candidate in 2012. It’s an interesting look at the “divide” amongst Republicans, (he quotes the lastest Rasmussen poll stating that Republicans prefer a conservative candidate, over a moderate one,) and that her popularity is still sky-high, (as demostrated by her recent attendance at the Alfalfa Dinner in DC).
I guess I would rather pose the question, is it about issues or is it because people like Palin? I like like her hometown, no-nonsense feel, don’t others? Is it the Hockey Mom-turned-Alaska Governor’s determination and star feel that draw folks to her? Or is it about more?

I think people appreciate her hometown ways and her charm. She doesn’t have the vibe of sleezing around behind the beltway for the last 20 or so years, and she seems to get the core issues better than those who do.
Is there more? Well, some right website recently sent out a Sarah Palin Calendar advertisement, if that says anything.

Haha… Well, I guess that answers it
