Among the many candidates Sarah Palin has endorsed during the 2010 elections, one of them is Joe Miller, who is seeking the Republican nomination for the U.S. Senate in Alaska against the incumbent Senator Lisa Murkowski.
A self-described constitutional conservative, Mr. Miller has been running as a pro-life, anti-ObamaCare, pro-limited government, pro-2nd Amendment & pro-border security candidate (it's only a partial list, you should know). Sounds like a good choice to me already. Sarah Palin has certainly been speaking the highest praises of him, as was noted in her latest Facebook note from yesterday; now he's sounding like a very good choice. And after watching the short debate conducted between Mr. Miller and Senator Murkowski, the choice is obvious (it is even more obvious when one compares the two on specific matters).
To digress here, I haven't conveyed my support for candidates in other states (exceptions including Tom Tancredo and Rand Paul) because it is my opinion that the 2¢ of a Hoosier on an election for Governor of Colorado or the U.S. Senate in Kentucky won't hold any weight with Coloradans or Kentuckians. It's easy for me to say I support somebody when that individual won't be representing me.
But with the Alaska primary set for this coming Tuesday, I certainly hope my 2¢ will convince Alaskans still undecided on who to vote for Tuesday. I hope Joe Miller wins the nomination and subsequently the election for the U.S. Senate; he's the kind of candidate I'd want to represent me in Washington.
