Palin said she wouldn't go third party.

She said on Hannity the other night: "If they’re not careful in the GOP, there will be a third party rise-up. That is what the GOP should be fearing today.” OK that's not an endorsement of a 3rd party but it's not really a non-endorsement either.

Yes, it's a warning to the GOP that some will want to go third party. And you're right, she is not being critical of those people who would make such a warning. But the bottom line is, latter in the interview, she said, she would not go third party.

Amy Kremer from Tea Party Express was just on Fox and was very clear that TPE would not support a 3rd party candidate, that they would work to get the best possible candidate within the GOP.

That's a good strategy.

But she also said IF Mitt Romney ended up with the nomination TPE would support him because it's all about defeating Obama.

I would hold back my support at this point.

In Hannity’s interview with Trump after the pizza party with the Palin’s, The Donald said ‘if the GOP nominates a stiff’ he’d consider 3rd party... could it have been any clearer who he was referring to? I don’t despise Romney as others here do, but there is NO denying he is a ‘stiff.’

Among them, Palin and The Donald, and now the TPE, have put the GOP establishment on notice that this election will not be business as usual (i.e., whose turn is it?) I’m very pleased with that.

We need to do everything possible to make sure Romney is NOT our nominee. But if it all fails and he does become our nominee I will have no problem voting for him. He’s 1000% better than Obama.
