I think overall won't matter much but in Iowa could be influential.

It will likely help a bit.

He hasn't had the support of any Governor or any member of Congress, but now he has a 2008 Vice-presidential nominee on his side.

It will help, perhaps more than you would think. He's neck-and-neck with Cruz, and the endorsement of a person as favorable in the state as Palin could put him over the top.

Trump's closest opponent is a Tea Party-backed evangelical, and Palin still has at least some credibility with that crowd. I'd say it helps a bit.

Will help a little and may end up making it almost a 50-50 contest. I would still give Cruz the SLIGHT edge, but its going to be VERY close now.

It's honestly over now, with Iowa's Governor telling Iowans to not vote for Cruz and Palin endorsing Trump he will win Iowa and then have unstoppable momentum and win every state it's really over ugh

Will help, but I still think Trump doesn't have the ground game necessary to turn people out-though he has improved on that. It will be a tight race between Cruz and Trump, and if I were Rubio, I'd focus enough on Iowa to knock Carson out of the race and try and have as strong as possible of a showing in NH heading into SC.

Yup, big time.  Last two GOP caucus winners?  Santorum (out of literally no where) and Huckabee (by a lot).

Hopefully he will lose the general election in a landslide and then the Republicans can finally throw away their troglodyte wing and allow competent, intellectual leaders to take over.

Either that or the troglodyte wing will permanently take over and the intellectuals will have to follow Gary Johnson into the Libertarian party.

Of course it will.

The folks Trump is looking to win over and keep over all love Palin.

Palin may, for all we know, be his running mate.

I think the number of genuine intellectuals who would touch "libertarianism" and the Libertarian Party with a ten foot pole are in the single digits.

It won't hurt him.  Anyone who would be turned off Trump by a Palin endorsement are probably never going to support him anyway.  What the Palin endorsement could help with is winning over hardcore conservatives, the GOP primary voter group that Trump is polling the worst with.

OK, I initially thought there'd be an impact, but now that I hear her speak....there's just nothing.

Don't short-sell her. The base eats this stuff up.

She either dosed a dozen 20mg Adderal IR or just ran through a couple lines of blow.

Can't tell.
