In this May 13, 2009, photo, Sen. Bob Bennett R-Utah, walks to the Senate Chamber on Capitol Hill in Washington. Bennett, darling of the National Rifle Association and grandson of a Mormon Church president, suddenly may not be conservative enough for ultraconservative Utah. He could become the first 2010 election casualty among incumbent U.S. senators if he fails to win at least 40 percent of the 3,500 delegates at the state GOP's convention May 8.

The university town has been a hotbed of radical activity over the years, from the Vietnam War to environmental activism. But Palin is the headliner at a Republican Party fundraiser Friday night.
