It's attune to the Prime Directive: Beat Obama. And, as such, quite appropriate to show support for one's allies in this mission.

The only answer. Besides ABO, if she said no, and she ran and won, that would come back to haunt her: “You wouldn’t support Romney, so why should his supporters back you?”. You just don’t say you won’t support the nominee no matter who it is. I can say it, but I’m not contemplating a run.

She’s answering honestly. I pray to Dear God in Heaven that Romney does not get the nomination, but... Anyone but Obama is pretty much where I will HAVE to come down.

I hate it. It goes against almost everything I believe, but at this stage of the game, I simply cannot take my vote and sit it out.

The country, hell the entire WORLD, cannot afford four more years of Obama. Whether it’s incompetence or malign intent or a combination of the two, the man is simply deadly poison.

Rick Perry is not a conservative. Nobody who thinks charging the same tuition for an illegal as an American is “punishment” is a conservative. Nobody who thinks guardasil is a good idea, especially when paid off by Merck, is a conservative.

Something tells me this is going to be another “hold your nose and vote then rush home to take a shower” election.

I hope we can gain in the House and take over the Senate and keep the RINOS in line.

If I was her I would have winked and said “I don’t think he’s going to be the nominee”.

Wow! How can you be a Reagan Conservative and endorse the Father of RomneyCare at the same time?

Nothing to get upset over. Sarah will deal with Milt in her own good time. She didn't say she supports Romney, she said she would support him over Obama. ABO. I don't support Milt at all, too big a RINO, but when all of the dust settles, if my choices are between Milt or Obama, I would NEVER vote for Obama.

I'll do everything that I can to make sure I'm not put into that position and so will Palin.

Typical drapes crap. The major take away from this is no third party.

4 years of a RINO might as well be 4 more years of Obama.

Romney is not going to lift a finger to undo ObamaCare, I doubt many of the others will either.

Folks, for the second time: THIS STORY HAD AN UPDATE AT THE END OF IT:

“UPDATE: In a subsequent phone call to The Daily Caller on Friday, Palin said her remarks to TheDC should not be interpreted as support for Romney in the race. Palin reiterated that she’s for ABO — “Anybody But Obama.”
A representative of SarahPAC also told TheDC that Palin has complained to Fox, whose site Fox Nation aggregated this article, for what she calls a misleading headline for this story.”

Good grief, are some of you folks already falling into the media’s trap? I would expect more from FREEPERS!

We’d see a slew of “See I knew she was a stalking horse for Mitt” posts. LOL

Questions About Romney’s Sons and Military Service
By MICHAEL LUO

CEDAR RAPIDS, Iowa — It is a question that Mitt Romney has gotten before on the campaign trail. Sometimes it is asked innocently; sometimes with a clear edge.

A woman at an Ask Mitt Anything forum earlier today in Iowa raised the question again, asking whether any of Mr. Romney’s five sons are serving in the military, adding pointedly, “If none of them are, how do they plan to support this war on terrorism by enlisting in our U.S. military?”

Although his campaign said his remarks were taken out of context, Mr. Romney’s response is drawing criticism, because he said, in part, “one of the ways my sons are showing support for our nation is helping to get me elected.”

This would fall into the “damning with faint praise” category.

Yeah, I'd vote for Romney over Obama but then I'd vote for a turd in a suit over Obama if I could tell them apart.

If Myth continues to go gray, it won't be much longer that he resembles Paulie Walnuts.
