DiCaprio for Senate! Just on a personal level, I'd boycott the NH primary due to it's prickish decision to put their primary in 2011.

Ron Paul should land the Palin endorsement.

Why would she support him? Palin's a "neocon" and Paul is, well...

Please explain. You seem to think that just because you like a politician means they'd be sympathetic to your views automatically.

She comes from the traditionalist wing of the GOP.  To quote lewrockwell.com

" But make no mistake. Sarah Palin is no neocon. She did not come by her beliefs by studying Leo Strauss. She is a traditionalist whose values are those of family, faith, community and country, not some utopian ideology."

Last I checked, I'd probably share those values. At the same time, I am a believer in an aggressive and anti-terrorist foreign policy. Those aren't mutually exclusive, and I guarantee you I didn't come by my beliefs studying Leo Strauss. Of course, when we're talking about neo-cons, there's the nuance between perceived neo-con which is a Conservative with a Dubya-esque foreign policy, or the textbook definition of a neo-con which would be a hawkish member of the Democratic party that "moved" to the Right during the era spanning from Nixon to Reagan. I'm referring to the first definition, "perceived neo-con".
