SEATTLE, May 1 (UPI) — Sarah Palin’s supporters are urged to contribute money toward recruiting her to run for the U.S. Senate, the Tea Party Leadership Fund said.

“We know that, with Sarah in the Senate, conservatives across America can rest a little easier at night knowing she’s at the watch,” an email from Todd Cefratti of the Leadership Fund, sent this week to supporters, read in part.

She would run against incumbent Mark Begich, D-Alaska, the Los Angeles Times noted.

Palin abandoned the Alaska governorship in 2009 in the middle of her first term. She ran as the Republican vice presidential candidate in 2008.

“I don’t see Governor Palin as a likely opponent [of Begich],” said Anchorage pollster Matt Larkin, whose firm worked for Palin’s gubernatorial campaign. “She doesn’t have the popularity she once had in the state of Alaska. It’s fallen off significantly.”

I think she’d be great, too. Probably a lot more effective as a U.S. senator than she would have been as veep anyway.

I would love to have her in the senate. One thing is LVS she is one not to compromise she stands for the core principles of conservatism. No amnesty, enforce current gun laws don’t add more, is for family and believes in individualism.

Please, please run, Sarah! I could use some chuckles, and you never disappoint!

That crack about lipstick on your pig really smarts don’t it? The truth hurts so bad. You go Sara. We need someone in their to fight for the conservatives.

How embarrassing for Linda Upmeyer to be seen with Mamma Grizley and then to actually go on record that she appreciated the advise that McCains nightmare gave her. Probably something to do with lipstick and pigs.
