So far Sarah Palin has come off as a sloganeer with little real message. This new slogan could easily rally her followers. It goes to the heart of everyone wanting to restore America to greatness.

Sarah Palin spoke publicly over the weekend about the 2012 race for the first time in months, mapping out what she sees as the themes for the presidential election.
“These two elections, 2010 and 2012, go hand-in-hand,” Palin said Sunday at a business conference in Bakersfield, according a report from NBC. “The theme of 2010 has got to be rebuke their errors, reject, repeal; and then the theme of 2012 — it’s renew, revive and restore.”
Up until the weekend, the former Alaska governor had been deflecting almost all 2012 speculation by saying only that she was focused on November’s midterm election.
But in her speech Sunday, Palin outlined the message she or other potential Republican candidates should push to counter President Barack Obama.
Palin said that Republicans should pledge to “renew our optimistic, pioneering spirit, revive our free market system and restore constitutional limits and our standing in the world, as that abiding beacon of freedom.”
The message, she said, should be “not transformation but restoration with a ‘Great Awakening’ that we already feel emerging across America.”
“We will win this year, we will win this year,” she said. “And I believe we will win in 2012.”
