Because I do not believe that Governor Palin will ever run as VICE PREZ ever again.

Yep.

Mitt Romney’s parents were MEXICAN; Mitt Romney is therefore an “Anchor Baby” who is not a natural born citizen, and therefore is ineligible for the presidency.

LOL. Now I despise Romney too, but this is laughable.

You're quoting a Reuters source as fact? Come on now Mojave.

That pic doesn't mean anything. Palin and Romney are arch-rivals and it was Mitt's guys who have been trying to undermine her.

The Mormon contingent working for Mitt Romney is in full force spreading its propaganda to convince voters from Iowa, New Hampshire and other early primary voting states that a person's faith should not be a factor in determining a person's fitness to become President of the United States.

Of course, it should be. The only question is where should the line be drawn. Unfortunately for Mitt, too many conservatives put Mormonism in the unacceptable category to allow him to be elected.

A person's religion (or lack of one) informs a lot about how a person thinks and their character. To ignore it when considering a candidate is foolish.

Fortunately, for me, Romney's Mormonism is a moot question. Romney-Care, his abortion flip-flops, his opposition to Reaganism, etc. have already disqualified him in my book as a viable candidate. Romney might try to wear the label of conservative but his actions reveal his true ideology.

Mitt Romney is a mayonnaise sandwich on white bread.

I'm starting a list of candidates that I hope will just go away and never again darken the doorstep of presidential politics:

Romney
McCain
Gingrich
Huckabee

Everyone feel free to add your favorite self-serving, egotistical, middle-of-the-road, has-been, RINO to the list.
It's fun.

I just googled "Palin honored to be on ticket with Romney" and found nothing, but that's not to say I don't believe you. I wish you would provide a link or something to see the context of the statement.

I really, really wish Republicans who like Romney would wake up to the truth that he's a big government nanny stater who embraces the global warming hoax environmentlist power grab, gay "rights" (which is not about bestowing rights, but about REMOVING God-given rights from people to peacefully reject open homosexuality in their schools, workplaces, and communities) and the concept of government-controlled health care. Romney is EVERYTHING that Republicans dislike in Democrats, but because he is a registered Republican who has worked in the private sector, they think that absolves him.

If it was Romney on the top of the ticket and Palin second, I'd reject it and vote against it by voting for some other choice, even if it meant the Democrat opponent winning the presidency -- even if it was Obama, though I bet that Obama WILL NOT BE THE DEM PRESIDENTIAL NOMINEE for 2012, but someone else, perhaps Hillary (though likely not), more likely someone we've not considered yet.

If it was Palin on the top of the ticket and romney as VP ... I'd be very disappointed in Palin, chock it up to political expediency on her part, but would vote for the ticket and hope that it could consign Romney to permanent "nobody" status. The man is a danger not just to the future of the Republcian party, but to the future of the USA. He poses a BIGGER danger than Democrats, because the Democrat party IS the party of bigger government; that's what it has stood for since before I was born. The Republican party should be the party of smaller government, limited government, and ONLY when it is so does it win elections. Romney and big-government Republicans like him pose the bigger danger -- they are the greater of two evils in races against Dems -- because they sabotage the future of the GOP, and that future is the hope of America. Voters sick of big government liberalism MUST be able to vote for party that stands for the alternative; Romney demolishes the GOP as that alternative, and therefore demolishes the future growth of the party with new voters seeking an antidote to big-government liberalism.

That was the Reuters photographer who took the picture. No quote.

Unfortunately, that is 3 of the 4 top runners at this point and it’s unlikely to change unless Chris Christie decides to run ... magritte

She was speaking to a Massachusetts audience, what did you expect her to say? She was probably being flippant about it as well.

So posting pics of her with McCain and Romney automatically makes her a RINO too. Gotcha.

She said it (in one variation of it) while speaking at a Tea Party rally in Boston. Some idiot local news reporter asked her about it and she responded in political fashion. Big whoop.

Anyone who thinks that Governor Palin is going to run with Romney, or make him the VP if she wins the nomination, is smoking crack. There is no love lost between the two.

She was willing to campaign alongside Romney for the sake of her mentor; she will be willing to campaign alongside Romney for the sake of herself.

Wait for it...
