Sarah Palin tells Scott Conroy that it's not just the sacred cow of ethanol subsidies that's in her line of fire.
"I think that all of our energy subsidies need to be relooked at today and eliminated.
.... And we need to make sure that we're investing and allowing our businesses to invest in reliable energy products right now that aren't going to necessitate subsidies because, bottom line, we can't afford it."
Here's the weird thing: Both Tim Pawlenty and Sarah Palin need to win Iowa to remain viable, and both have now called for an end to subsides to the state's big ethanol industry.
Meanwhile, Mitt Romney doesn't need to win Iowa, but nevertheless, reiterated his support for ethanol subsidies last week.
