Palin will work to defeat Ryan in primary for Trump stance
CNN ^ | 5/8/2016 | Karl De Vries

Washington (CNN) Sarah Palin will work to defeat House Speaker Paul Ryan by backing his primary opponent in Wisconsin, the former Alaska governor told CNN's Jake Tapper.

Palin said in an interview that airs Sunday on "State of the Union" that her decision was sparked by Ryan's bombshell announcement to Tapper last week that he wasn't yet ready to support Donald Trump, the Republican presumptive nominee. Palin endorsed Trump back in January.

"I think Paul Ryan is soon to be 'Cantored,' as in Eric Cantor," Palin said, referring to the former Republican House majority leader who was ousted in a shocking upset in 2014 when challenger Dave Brat ran to his right in a Virginia primary.

I hope she has success with this, but I doubt she’ll have much impact; I think her “5 minutes of fame” are just about up. Certainly they’re on the wane.

They have quite a bit of fight against real conservatives with Republican labels.

Will she work to defeat McQueeg?
McCain is (finally) ripping the media for its unfairness to her in ’08.
McCain resents media's 'disgraceful' treatment of Palin
Better late than never . . .

No doubt he senses he needs her help, or at least for her to remain neutral. He doesn’t give a flip how the media treats her. He’s a media whore himself, always currying favor with the mediots.

this only makes sense if his challenger can win in the general. and please spare me the uniparty crap; it does make a difference if it's a democrat instead of ryan, and it's suicidal and twisted to pretend otherwise.

I am now in my mid 80s and I very much admire Donald Trump and Sarah Palin. I think Trump and Palin are going through agonies today — thanks to high-mucky-muck rulers — within the Republican party. Hopefully, Trump and Palin will clean up the Republican high-mucky-muck crowd.

Disappointment? The man is a globalist, open borders, North American Union shill for the USCCB and our entrenched shadow government.

Ryan needs to lose Wisconsin, but we should expect the Marxists to converge financially for him, just to keep his boyish head propped up above the water line.

He would fit perfectly in Rome, with the New Age Vatican consorts for socialism and Liberation Theology. Preach it, Paul Ryan.

The man is asking for only ten dollars a month to beat Paul Ryan.

God be with him in taking out this traitor.

I’m with you, catnipman!

Would it be simpler yet to just mail Nehlen a check?

Or cash.

Mrs. Catnipman was talking about mailing a check. Just make sure phone number not on checked or blacked out.

Yet another great service by a true patriot, Governor Palin.

Don; select Sarah as Veep.

She can rake the Witch over the coals and the WOMAN card would be rendered MOOT!

<< “ McCain is (finally) ripping the media for its unfairness to her in ’08. McCain resents ....” >>

No. He’s not late. He’s using her. Again.

McCain used Palin, cares not one whit for Palin, never did, never will. Rode her politically like a rented mule to save his hide and still was blown out of the water by those of us who despised him.

The Maverick is using her now. He sees the Revolution before his very eyes and the mood of his own state coming after him, so he makes the sharp turn to the RIGHT.

McCain is pulling a rabbit out of the hat, once again.
It’s name is “Sarah Palin”.

I think that’s right, also.

Years ago bankers advised never put your phone number on personal checks, unless you are open to going on marketing call banks.
