Palin's endorsement of Ernst in #IASEN matters cuz: A) She's viewed as strongest GOP cand B) Signal of Tea Party-Estab. unity.
@CCharlesAllen Given that the party establishment likes Ernst, getting this cred is very politically useful.

@DavidMDrucker Do you see this as TP compromising on purity to win seats? Or is IA just conservative enough that estab & TP in same place? -
@CCharlesAllen There are a few races where the good cand is also the conservative cand: AR, AK, IA … & IA Repubs tend to be conserve anyway -
@DavidMDrucker So estab / TP unity here is more of a natural, state-specific, alignment than sign of lessons learned from DE, CO, NV, etc -
@CCharlesAllen A little of both, frankly. But also a function of the candidates who have emerged to run.
