In a blow to Mitt Romney's presidential campaign, Sarah Palin said Sunday that she's "not convinced" the former Massachusetts governor is conservative enough to do Republicans' bidding in the White House.
Palin, the former governor of Alaska, said the GOP presidential field remains wide open because Romney's past positions on healthcare, abortion and other issues have been moderate-to-liberal, leaving Republicans confused about what he'd do as commander-in-chief.
"Most voters in the GOP, and Independents, we will want to see that candidate who we can trust will just inherently, instinctively turn right always err on the side of conservatism," Palin said on Fox News Sunday.

Remember the 1980 US Olympic Hockey Coach? Yes, he kept planting seeds to the team, these guys don't look good, they are full of themselves, etc etc. Which one may ask to the point did the "guys" eventually internalize they could beat them. And they did..
She called Obamacare and or Romney care Obamneycare.
They joked it was a Freudian Slip, I don't believe it for a minute, she planted a seed their, a negative one.
She is going to extract payback to Willard for all he as done to her over the last 3 years...
Being picked as the Candidate on the Convention Floor as an alternative to none of the above would be the most delicious Schadenfreude moment in History.
In terms of Willard, IMHO it couldn't happen to a nicer guy...
Well, I can only go by what she actually said, not what you or I would have hoped she would say.
He is. Call Central Casting and ask for "generic Republican candiate" and the casting call will be for a Mitt Romney type.
Same as Baraq Obama is an excellent candidiate.
Though she decided not to run. But she gives a lot of her expertise of not running to those who do. But just, “Do what I say....”
I'm taking her at face value on this.
Notice the word “candidate”- she didn’t say nominee or president. In one interview a while back, she took a swipe at him running for prez so long. He is a perenniel candidate.
