Elisabeth Hasselbeck blames Sarah Palin for lack of Mitt Romney coverage
The Los Angeles Times ^ | June 9, 2011 | Andrew Malcolm

Elisabeth Hasselbeck, who campaigned for Sarah Palin (oh, and John McCain) in 2008 is now complaining that the former governor is distracting media attention from Mitt Romney.

On a recent episode of "The View," Hasselbeck used an interesting analogy to argue that the hockey mom's "One Nation" tour was stealing the thunder from Romney's plan to improve the economy.

"If I had termites in my house I'd get someone in there who could deal with it," the former winner of "Survivor" explained. "Mitt Romney, right now, his specialty is the economy. I'd have him in there. Here's why we're not hearing it: because Sarah Palin's on a bus and right now she's manipulating, in terms of media attention."

Hasselback's angst against the Alaskan may seem odd considering that in 2008 Hasselbeck guaranteed that if Palin made it to the White House she would fight D.C. corruption.....

The bad economy is only a symptom. The real problem is systemic corruption. For these termites, Palin is the proven specialist. That is why the corrupt establishment is howling so loud.

stealing the thunder from Romney's plan to improve the economy.

Mr. Romney has not yet offered many specifics about his plans for the economy. He promised to cap federal spending at 20 percent of the nation’s gross domestic product. And he said that as president he would make taxes competitive, create jobs, modernize regulations and reduce bureaucracy.

Actually Elizabeth has done more for Sarah than you could ever do. She supported her in 2008 and said many speeches. I am sure she will support her if she gets in. Elizabeth likes Sarah unlike you.

Elizabeth then threw Palin under the bus when she was being attacked as a mass murderer.

No wonder Palin doesn’t return her emails.

Best,

Chris

You forgot the BRAINLESS TWIT (that’s Twit!) ALERT. The woman is sickening, vapid, brain-dead, illiterate, pathetic, moronic, and frankly,... I don’t find her attractive at all!

Didn’t she get the memo? Romney himself said that his poor press coverage was a good thing right now, because he’s so worried about overexposure. In fact, he went on Piers Morgan’s CNN show to say so.

(He did indeed learn in ‘08 that the more the electorate saw him, the less they wanted to vote for him.)

Hi naps.

Sarah Barracuda is just tired of the endless RomneyTEAM
backstabbing. Who isn’t?

She was not really going to “put a sock in it”
or “send Rosie O’Donnell (over)”.

Hope all is well.
Take care.

According to the Daily Mail, she is mad because Sarah won’t return her phone calls recently. So she’s in a snit and being a back stabber because her ego is wounded.

Methinks Elizabeth has been hanging out with those hags on the view too much. Their lunacy has rubbed off on her.
