You're not the first to say that in this thread. I don't doubt you but I do remember when Laura was trying to talk both Santorum and Gingrich into joining together in one ticket and going after Romney. So, I never concluded that she was on Romney's side during the primaries. Am I missing something?
From Google, she seems to have endorsed Romney in 2008, but doesn’t look like she endorsed anyone in 2012. Of course that was part of the problem, with Palin and so many other conservatives sitting on the sidelines not endorsing anyone until way too late in the primaries while endorsements for Romney from the establishment piled up. Romney had such a financial advantage, the only chance would’ve been for people to rally around one single opponent and let all the grass-roots donations go there.
Don't get me wrong I like LI very much. Agree with her 80% of the time but when it came to Romney vs the pack, I felt she had Romney's back. Washington republicans are no different than democrat republicans.
When all is said and done and IF Obama wins (which I personally don't think so) The Karl Roves of the world will still be employed and you and I will not.
