Nicolle Wallace: 'Heaven Forbid' Palin Becomes President

[RINOS ARE RADICALS]

Wonder if Hannity will hold this liberals feet to the fire?

I highly doubt it they practically run his show now.

“She is a young woman who started working for Bush/Cheney 2004 in her early 20s.”

Her bio says she’s 37. She’s really aged in 6 years.

What, exactly, does Nicolle Wallace favor? I don’t think she’s the future of the Republican Party.

[kcvl]

Mark D. Wallace is an American businessman, former diplomat and lawyer who has served in a variety of government, political and private sector posts. He served in several positions during the administration of George W. Bush, including as the United States Ambassador to the United Nations, Representative for UN Management and Reform.

Wallace founded UANI in 2008 along with former CIA Director R. James Woolsey as well as Richard Holbrooke and Dennis Ross, who are both currently serving in the Obama administration.

He is currently the President of Tigris Financial Group Ltd. (Tigris) and President of United Against Nuclear Iran (UANI).

He is married to Nicolle Wallace, a novelist and political commentator who served as President George W. Bush’s communications director

Nicole is a prime example of how so many women do not seem to get the wisdom to keep their mouth shut until they have some age on them. I say this as a woman, by the way.

Everything comes off as a snarky and petty catfight.

FLASHBACK: GOP BACKSTABBING IN 2008

"Who's the Palin Leaker from the McCain Campaign?
The publication of a Vanity Fair profile of Sarah Palin
appears to have opened old wounds in the McCain campaign.
... the source of the "Diva" leak was Nicolle Wallace's husband."

"Go Mitt. Go Mitt."

---

Late in October 2008, The American Spectator's The Prowler revealed:
"Former Mitt Romney presidential campaign staffers…
have been involved in spreading anti-Palin spin to reporters, seeking to diminish her standing after the election.
'Sarah Palin is a lightweight, she won't be the first, not even the third, person people will think of when it comes to 2012,'
says one former Romney aide…
'The only serious candidate ready to challenge to lead the Republican Party is Mitt Romney.
"Some former Romney aides were behind the recent leaks to media, including CNN, that Governor Sarah Palin was a 'diva' and was going off message intentionally."

---

The Palmetto Scoop reported: "One of the first stories to hit the national airwaves was
the claim of a major internal strife between close McCain aides and the folks handling his running mate Sarah Palin."
"I'm told by very good sources that this was indeed the case and that a rift had developed, but it was between Palin's people and the staffers brought on from the failed presidential campaign of former Gov. Mitt Romney, not McCain aides."
"The sources said nearly 80 percent of Romney's former staff was absorbed by McCain and these individuals were responsible for what amounts to a premeditated, last-minute sabotage of Palin."
… aides loyal to Romney inside the McCain campaign, said The Scoop, reportedly saw
that Palin would be a serious contender for the Republican nomination in 2012 or 2016, which made her a threat to another presidential quest by Romney.
... These staffers are now out trying to finish her off ….hoping it would ingratiate themselves with Mitt Romney."

"Peeking Out From the McCain Wreckage: Mitt Romney"

"Someone's got to say it: IS MITT ROMNEY RESPONSIBLE FOR OBAMA'S VICTORY?"

"Vanity: Team Romney Sabotaged Palin and Continuing to Do So?"

"Romney Supporters Trashing Palin"

"Romney advisors sniping at Palin?"

...they practically run his show now.”______________

Hannity makes me crazy. A little too manic for my taste, and repetitious ad nauseaum, but his radio show is timely and cuts to the day’s chase without all the show biz and NOISE of his tv show. Fewer libs on the radio program and more interviews with conservatives on Capitol Hill, where it matters.

[t-dude]

Nicholle Wallace must be just the kind of snarky RINO earlJam favors...

Sarah is like sunlight to a vampire, her inherent goodness causes the banal and vituperous evil snarks to shriek in horror.

Which is why I love her.

Republicans Raise Money for Gay Agenda

September 20, 2010

The civil war in the Republican Party takes another turn on Wednesday night when Sarah Palin basher Nicolle Wallace lends her name to a fundraiser for a pro-homosexual group called American Foundation for Equal Rights. Wallace, an adviser to the 2008 McCain for President campaign, figures prominently in Sarah Palin’s book, Going Rogue, as someone determined to get her on the CBS Evening News with Katie Couric.

[Dr.Deth]

feline fisticuffs

[pepperdog]

Really? I have given my Sarah book to a family member so can’t check. I’d really like to know. There’s no doubt in my mind that Palin was set up in the most disgusting way, she was told Couric really admired her and led to believe the interview would be friendly instead she got ambushed.

[earlJam]

Wiki says she started working in politics for Jeb Bush in 1999. She would have been 26 and fresh out of college.

Regardless, she is not “the GOP establishment.” She is a low level communications person.

The establishment people are not making public statements about Palin right now.

Interesting quote on wiki. Apparently she has not like Palin since they started working together:

**************

In response to reports of dissension within the McCain-Palin camp in late October 2008, Wallace gave the same statement to both Politico and CNN: “If people want to throw me under the bus, my personal belief is that the most honorable thing to do is to lie there.”[7][8]

[altura]

So, according to this biddy, defending oneself from bitter, hateful and untruthful criticism is vicious clawing.

Go, Sarah. Continue to defend yourself every day.

And you, Nicolle, go soak your head.

[jtal]

She lives in New York City and Connecticut with her husband, Mark Wallace, and their vizsla dog Lilly.

That says it all.

[altura]

It was interesting when she said that if Palin appears to be going to get the nomination, a lot of people in the party will speak some truths about her (or sumpin like that).

This is funny because Sarah is the most delved into, examined, disected and investigated person ever to be on the public scene.

And they’ve found nothing.

I think there’s a reason for that.

[pepperdog]

Nevermind, I've now read all the posts and see she is the Judas goat that was in the McCain camp. But you were the first to identify her. :^)

[Clyde5445]

roses of sharon summed it up in comment 68.

Wallace convince Sarah to have pity on Couric and consent to the interview. It’s all in “Going Rouge”. Wallace even criticized the clothes in Sarah’s closet.

[McGruff]

I want Sarah to be President for one reason, just to see the liberals’ heads explode, that alone would make it worth it.

We'll take a vote anyway we can get one.

I think I'll name this one Nicolle.

[GoCards]

My hope is Palin does NOT respond to any of this petty crap. Not to Joe not to Nicole, nobody. I liked her facebook yesterday regarding taxes and reading Sowell. She should respond that way.

Joe and Nicole want to get in a pissing match with Palin to increase their name. Dont bite!

Go Sarah.

[exit82]

Nicole the mole.

I think Heaven has other ideas about Sarah, Nicole.

And they don’t include you sweetheart.

BTW, we remember your complicity in the Katie Couric set-up interview.

[earlJam]

she was told Couric really admired her and led to believe the interview would be friendly instead she got ambushed.

True. She was ambushed. But that is no excuse for being unprepared.
