So long as Allen West stays away from the friggin’ crustless sandwich club and cigar room of John Boehner he’s ok.   But the gravitational pull stemming from the Decepticon’s Death Star is strong….. very strong.
West got too close to the death spiral of the dark force 3 or 4 times in his first congressional year:  Voting “yea” to support Pigford funding;   Voting “yea” to fund Obama’s illegal Libyan war;  Voting “yea” to raise the Death Ceiling;  And then while stuffing his face with crustless sandwiches he joins the pinky finger up crew in a toast to call Tea Party peeps “childish”……  
Perhaps,…. just perhaps;  Now that he has also tasted the bitter pill of isolation, and noted the missing trait of loyalty from within the hearts of Decepticons, he will be more cautious about distancing himself from, and disparaging, the very patriots who provided the energy to lift him to public office.

Washington, DC – Sarah Palin says there’s one name at the top of her list if the Republican party wants to “go rogue” in its pick for the vice presidential nominee: Rep. Allen West.
The former vice presidential candidate told Fox News’s Sean Hannity on Tuesday that the Florida Republican would be a great choice for the 2012 ticket. She argued that the eventual presidential nominee shouldn’t “think they have to go with somebody necessarily safe.”
“Top of my list is Allen West,” she said. “I love that he has that military experience. He is a public servant willing to serve for the right reasons. He understands the Constitution. He understands our national foreign policy issues that must be addressed. He has served. I really like him. There are so many, Sean, that are out there. And when I talk about going rogue, what I want to do is encourage the GOP nominee to not think that they have to go with somebody necessarily safe that conventional wisdom perhaps would lead somebody to believe that, if it’s somebody, quote-unquote, safe, that they’re not going to get beat up by the media, because no matter who it is.” (read more)
