I respect Governor Palin a lot.  I was pulling for Senator McCain to pick her long before it became a possibility.  However, I have to sincerely disagree with her and others on this one. 

This is NOT an establishment vs. tea party/ grass roots fight.  How much more establishment can Speaker Gingrich be?  He's been living in DC for decades as an insider and has become quite rich because of it. 

If anyone is the outsider, it is Governor Romney.  The fact that there are big name Republicans showing an aversion to Speaker Gingrich is more of a telling sign than anything.  If this were merely an inner circle of Beltway types sticking up for their own, than this situation should be reversed (as the former Speaker is the establishment).  The fact that he is well known by those who work in DC and therefore understood, I think we should listen to what they have to say. 

And the point about President Reagan is clear in my mind.  They are merely pointing out that the back bench Congressman wasn't all that close to the President, despite what he says now.  He is resume padding. We have been warned.

No offense to the other candidates, but Mr. Ryan was the right man for the right time.  This is beyond dispiriting.  Now I can only hope that Governors Pawlenty or Romney, who I don't feel are right for the time, can be suitable substitutes.  It's a sad day.
