Eleanor Clift Shocker: 'Sarah Palin Will Be a Force at the Republican Convention'

August 5th, 2012 7:18 PM

Make that two mainstream media members singing former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin's praises this weekend.

After ABC's Jonathan Karl commended the former vice presidential nominee for her perfect record of endorsing winners in senate primaries this year, Newsweek's Eleanor Clift echoed those sentiments on PBS's McLaughlin Group adding, "She will be a force at the Republican Convention whether she does it from the floor or from the parking lot" (video follows with transcript and commentary):

ELEANOR CLIFT, NEWSWEEK: Sarah Palin is five for five in her Senate picks in this primary season. She will be a force at the Republican Convention whether she does it from the floor or from the parking lot.

Between Karl and Clift, one has to wonder if Palin's success as a king/queen maker is forcing media members to rethink their positions on the former governor.

Certainly bears watching.
