Sarah Palin’s name is being floated about as a replacement for Michael Steele as head of the RNC. When I first heard this I did a fist-pump and shouted “YES!”
A few moments later I was not so sure. I will admit to mixed feelings about it, as I would hate to see her lose her freedom to personally endorse her choice of candidates, and be at liberty to write whatever she wants on her Facebook page. Those “ninja throwing stars” that her FB pages have been likened to have been effective, and indeed, likely the only way her unedited words can get out to the public. [I so wish I had thought of that line, 'ninja throwing stars,' as it fits to a T and the visual imagery of her tossing Facebook missives out like ninja throwing stars zinging straight to their target, is fun.]
So, anyway, those are my thoughts. I am certain she would be very effective as the RNC chairwoman and her fund-raising capabilities have never been in question. It would establish a true conservative, a woman who does not play politics as usual, as head of the establishment group within the establishment party folks.
It could be a good thing.
Here’s the petition to draft Sarah Palin for RNC chair. I encourage you to read it.
