Dear Facebook Governor Sarah Palin,
I admit it: I am impressed with your work in New York.
Now, Iowa may not have any money to give you to come speak to them. And frankly, we in the First-in-the-Nation Primary State don't have any either.
But we do have something that could endear you to the 21st century New Hampshire Republican (psst - you know - the folks who could actually catapult you into a genuine presidential contender).
We've got a Republican candidate for Senate named Ovide Lamontagne and one for Congress named Jennifer Horn. They share your values.
Unfortunately, the NRSC/NRCC party functionaries from afar in DC have decided that they would rather have Republican candidates that either hail from the 20th century (Charlie Bass), or else poll-driven ones who want to be all things to all people (Kelly Ayotte).
Facebook Governor Palin, you could do a world of good in this state by shaking off DC influence and giving New Hampshire Republicans a fairer chance to choose nominees that better reflect where their values are in 2009. And at the same time, you would be giving them a reason to consider you for the 2012 Primary.
This is a win-win. And in full disclosure: yes, I am not a Republican. But more than anything I like truth in advertising, and the clarifying work you have done in New York is badly needed over here. It would be better for both Republicans and Democrats, and for New Hampshire voters in general, to know where everyone stands.
Respectfully,
me
