Dave Weigel, whose blog at The Washington Post keeps tabs on the conservative movement, offers a good critique of those who try to find some Sarah Palin influence in last night's primaries.

“The rush to find a Palin narrative in absolutely every election, when her actual involvement with candidates has been less than that of Mitt Romney or Mike Huckabee, is mystifying,” Weigel writes at his Right Now site. “It's also irritating to Republicans who, generally, like Palin but believe that the media uses her as a cudgel against their party.”

Another sign of how the media overcovered the primaries in their push to get any kind of political bent out of even the smallest vote.
