thought you'd like to know......
personally, I wanted her for President......and they had better give her a good spot at the convention....
Unless she uses the exact words “I endorse Romney-Ryan” her support will be questioned by some here. LOL
I'm a big booster of Palin and would have supported her for president but I don't understand this line of thinking. She took herself out of the running and played no major role in the election. Her choice, not ours. So in my opinion, the Republicans do not owe her a good spot at the convention. If they want to invite her, I'm all for her participation, but they do not "owe" it to her.
That said, I'm hoping she earns her spot at a future convention as our nominee.
“...and they had better give her a good spot at the convention..”
I believe and I may be wrong, she had not been invited as of last week.
You are absolutely right. She could do a lot more to help, from one of those who help fund her last run. She could have run and chose not to.
Just heard Sarah say Romney has the conservatives already...and that Romney needs to reach out to the independents.
Anyone wanna call her a RINO? Is Sarah now part of the “GOPe”?
Bingo.
Except that doesn’t matter now.
Despite all the caterwauling we see on Free Republic about Mitt Romney not being a perfect conservative, we reflect only about 0.025% of net traffic and out of that small fraction, there is only a fraction of us that will either vote third party or not vote at all.
Apparently you aren’t keeping up with what Sarah Palin has been doing lately. She is rebuilding the Republican Party from within...one Senator and Congressman at a time...
She is smart enough to know that she could never run for President without the support of the GOPe (and quite frankly with many of them openly opposed to her), so she took another path....one that will strengthen the GOP for the future of the conservative movement.
Palin just said on Fox she suports the ticket 100% good enough?
Mittens will be good on cutting government and the budget...it is social issues that drive people here nuts..Let a GOP House and Senate step up to the plate!!!!
Without the Senate we get nothing done...the Southern Democrats that helped REAGAN beat the RINOS are gone..
Don't you find that unbelievable--you would think a REAL conservative would call for the utter and complete destruction of Romney!!
Of course she does. Did you expect her to endorse Obama/Biden?
You work with what you have at the time and she has always spoken favorably of Paul Ryan.
That doesn’t change the fact that she is working within the GOP to build a more conservative GOP.
I think Mark Steyn put it best.
“We have a seriously flawed candidate and it’s up to us to drag him across the finish line a winner.
Those are words that I live by.
There is no doubt whatsoever that Palin is 100% behind the Romney/Ryan ticket.
Would Palin be our nominee today had she decided to run? We may never know but there may be wisdom behind her decision not to run. Had she run and lost, her political career at this level would surely be finished. This way, she gets to run another day and during this time, she just gets better and better. She's still a young woman, even if she has to wait a few more election cycles, she still be younger than Hillary is today.
