Do you watch and read the news? There has clearly been a shift. Many in the media will no longer mention Palin as a potential GOP hopeful for the nomination. This shift happened in the last 30 days. People have made a decision to ignore her.

What you post does not support your claim.

I'm a member of a half dozen conservative forums, I watch Fox News, I listen to Rush and Beck when I have the chance, and I read Drudge and Red State and Malkin and Town Hall.

Those are sources, but they are somewhat removed from the grass roots level of conservative thought. All the above have agendas, either to entertain, make money or otherwise capitalize on being in the alleged forefront of conservative thought.

The idea that Palin madness and Birther nonsense are only a big deal because of liberals is truly and utterly false, demonstrably so. Mike Huckabee, just this last Monday during a radio interview, said that Barack Obama was raised in Kenya, reigniting the Birther talk on the right yet again.

He said he misspoke regarding the Kenya comment and that was not the point of his commentary. The point was regarding his world view as it related to British colonialism.

You are quite simply wrong about this, and I would appreciate if you'd do a bit of self-reflection and ask yourself why you need to just make stuff up in order to try and defend the conservative right.

I don't make stuff up, I cut to the chase and speak truth.
