Former vice presidential candidate, Sarah Palin, has done U.S. President, Barack Obama, a substantial amount of damage, as the defacto head of the grassroots Tea Party. They are using Obama's own grassroots shtick against him. Her figurative (at least I hope so) call to arms is turning people against the president's policies. 

Sarah Palin: I should have put him in a headlock during that debate! 

With less than a week to go before the November 2, 2010, mid-term elections, the president is scrambling to cover as much ground in America as possible, on behalf of beleaguered Democrats that supported his unpopular policies. However, while Obama is out campaigning for the Democrats, Palin is going to bat for the Republicans. Interesting, indeed.
