Palin Endorses O’Donnell in Delaware

Hot Air has the story and the audio link, but the short version is that Sarah Palin endorsed Christine O’Donnell over Castle in the Delaware Republican Senate primary.  Frankly, it’s what she should have done and yet another sign she has the fight we need to put the country back on track.  The argument we can build a real majority with RINOs like Castle is flawed at best.

Yes, numerically they would help us make a majority.  The committee chairmanships could go Republican.  Shortly thereafter, we all realize again that it was for nothing as the RINOs render any gains moot.  If they’re the ones who give us the majority, they’ll block conservative initiatives and back Democrat ones when the chips are down, rendering all attempts at driving the agenda pointless.  Paper majorities have no worth.

We don’t have to recover the Senate to stop Obama, but we do need reliable opposition.  Otherwise, we wind up with farces like the Financial Regulation bill, compliments of Brown and the Maine sisters.  Or a McCain can decide he wants to be in the news again and give the cover of bipartisanship to another Democrat disaster like cap and trade, campaign finance reform, or amnesty.

It may not be entirely attainable, but it’s still the Six Sigma of Republican renewal.  No RINOs, no exceptions.  They’re more trouble than they’re worth.
