The big news last night was that Sarah Palin endorsed Orrin Hatch (video via HotAir): Many people are acting surprised.  But Palin's support is not new, as this video from August 2011 indicates, although calling it a formal "endorsement' may be new: I set forth my position...

Signs are popping up all over. From reader Angie: This is not a bumper sticker, but traveling along the coast in southern OREGON, we came upon this rather large sign. The small town seemed to be struggling. Maybe there's hope. Follow up email from Angie: Drove by it again today,...
