Palin Endorses Trump Debate, Urges Candidates to Join
NewsMax ^ | December 7, 2011 | Henry J. Reske

Posted on 12/07/2011 8:31:09 PM PST by 2ndDivisionVet

Sarah Palin is urging Republican presidential candidates to take part in the Newsmax ION Television 2012 Presidential Debate moderated by Donald Trump.

The former Alaska governor and vice presidential candidate made her endorsement in an interview to air Wednesday night on the Fox Business Network. Palin’s endorsement is the latest high-profile conservative to support the debate set for Dec. 27.

"I think candidates should not be afraid in front of the nation no matter who the host of the debate is,” Palin said. “What is a bit appealing about this idea of Trump hosting a debate is, consider the diverse audience that perhaps he can attract. It's important that independents and those who are not obsessed with inside-baseball partisan politics, which is most of us, we'd like to hear more of the message of each one of these candidates and perhaps Donald Trump will be able to attract a diverse demographic that maybe has not been as interested in this horse race thus far.

"America needs to wake up to what is going on under Obama's socialist policies and how he will bankrupt the country. I'm looking at the debate as a positive thing because of that fact."(continued)

I wasn’t “implying” anything. That post made me think you were mentally retarded. I grew up near several families with Down’s children and would never mock them. You, on the other hand... And don’t start that “I was her biggest supporter” nonsense. You arrived here AFTER she decided not to run, so we have no idea what your view of her was. It’s like those letters to the editor that start with “As a life-long Republican..” and go on to trash every GOP candidate back to Abe Lincoln. You’re pretty much assumed to be a troll until proven otherwise here. Is that fair? Maybe not, but life isn’t fair.

Palin: "America needs to wake up to what is going on under Obama's socialist policies......."

But, but, but.....The Bloviator vehemently declared tonight that Obama is NOT a socialist.

Now, who are ya gonna believe, Sarah Palin or that populist weasel, the Obama-defending, closet liberal, Bill O'Strich?

Ted Baxter is right about as often as that proverbial blind pig.

I say Palin is turning into a dumb bulb or is trying to shove all 2012 candidates under the Trump bus to preserve her chances for 2016.

Time to put the glass down, push away from the keyboard and go to bed.

So again you mock Sarah’s son by calling me mentally retarded. Keep digging. Can you read my tagline? You think I could like Cain but not Sarah? Again, I made a joke. Sarah would’ve chuckled. She would’ve ripped you a new one and you have it coming. Ever hear of just saying,”.I screwed up”. Go back to pulling wings off flies.

I think if a declared presidential candidate gets credible threats on his/her life, SS protection kicks in. Obama get SS well before the nomination and I think Cain did, too.

I may not agree with either, but I've got a pretty good feeling that yours isn't influenced by TeeVee contracts or an incontrovertible ego...”

Yet another idiotic post from yet another moronic PDS sufferer. Groan!
Hey, talking about “incontrovertible ego”.. you are talking about yourself here, right? Looking at your posting record, no one displays symptoms of “incontrovertible ego” more than you do.
Perhaps you will also explain how a Trump(who's TV programs or on NBC)sponsored GOP debate has anything to do with Palin’s contract with Fox.

That is a pretty delusional statement, completely unsupportable by facts. Just wow.

Watch the interview as she takes down Obama, then shoot your mouth off. Support a fighter. Or support her target.

What You said...

You can bet she’s working under the radar to get as many conservatives in state houses and senates and governorships.

Newt has mentioned Col. West (West is open to it) as his VP - Picture that ticket. libRAT/media heads will explode.

He just mentioned Bolton for Sec of State

I have an inkling he’ll put Sarah to work on “Drill Here, Drill Now”

He will not keep ONE holdover. that was Bush’s big mistake. He kept a lot of Clinton holdovers - foxes in the hen house - and -it was disastrous.

He will hit the ground running on DAY ONE with a team of appointees who are all up to speed in their field of expertise.

He will have up to 200 EO’s printed and ready to sign in the first two hours after the inauguration that will immediately put the brakes on about 45% of what obama has done.

We do not have one extra day for a president who needs to get up to speed. It’s too late to get up to speed after you’ve run off the cliff.

We need Newt -

There will always be the cranks here taking shots at Palin who FIGHTS Obama while they snipe. Therefore they indirectly support Obama in my view.

Thanks for that link -

http://conservatives4palin.com/2011/12/video-of-governor-palins-interview-with-eric-bolling.html

Her calling obama what he is - a socialist - must frost bill o’r. (at least, I hope so, LOL)

She says she won’t endorse a candidate until after the Iowa vote - HOWEVER, she seems to give a pretty good indication - starting at minute marker 9:00

Governor Palin should join.

Seriously.

Do it! Stand at Mitt Romney’s empty podium, and debate Gingrich...

Really. Do it.
