Description | Former Gov. Sarah Palin will announce today that she's hitting the campaign trail for Republicans -- including her former running mate John McCain.
Palin, who did not campaign in last year's governor's races or in yesterday's Senate race in Massachusetts, has committed to contests in three states, including two Republican primaries, an aide said.
She'll campaign in Texas for Gov. Rick Perry, who faces a primary challenge from Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison; she'll appear in Arizona for Senator John McCain, who faces a challenge from the right; and she'll appear in Minnesota for Rep. Michelle Bachmann, a conservative firebrand who has emerged as a national figure.
In a statement set to appear on her Facebook page, Palin promises to campaign "FOR the people and AGAINST politics as usual."
She cites the Massachusetts contest as "a clear indication of things to come and a demonstration of the momentum we all share in the fight for the values and policies that will get our country back to work," promising to campaign for "the commonsense conservative principles of liberty and fiscal responsibility."
