Some people in the Republican Party are even more afraid of Palin than the Democrats.

The Six-Figure Difference That Palin Woman Makes? [Kathryn Jean Lopez]

An e-mail:

I think the main reason certain members of the GOP are upset is that they are jealous they have to pay to go to Iowa and speak to caucus-goers, whereas caucus-goers are willing to pay Palin to speak. When is the establishment going to realize that this woman REALLY motivates the base and get at least a LITTLE behind her? I personally do not think she will necessarily make the best candidate, but they are actively attempting to sabotage her, which I do not agree with.
