She's gotta do what she's gotta do -- she's a politician and her viability depends on that. I understand that.

You realize of course that this is precisely the argument that people make to excuse Romney's taking liberal positions in uber leftist Massachusetts. That he's gotta do what he's gotta do to stay political viable in a deep blue state.

Yeah, that's true. The difference I see is that endorsements are words. Signings of laws are deeds. Her deeds as Alaska's executuve were worthy.

I don't believe she's going to campaign so much on the idea that Romney is the best thing since sliced bread, but rather that "we must get Obama out of office". There's an important distinction there.

I'll cut her slack, so far. We'll see what she does.

Very good point. Reminds me of some anti-war activists who asked, “Is it okay to support a war now that Obama is the president?”

Big difference between endorsing a liberal republican candidate and being a leftist politician. We can look at Palin's record in office and look at mitt's. The difference is quite striking. One was a Conservative Governor that took on corruption in both parties and one was a Progressive Governor that was a ted kennedy ally.

Sarah never said, “I was never part of the Reagan Revolution... I never believed in it”. The list is a million miles long. Want to know what mitt will do to America... look at what he has done to FR.

obama and his communist agenda unified Conservatives and Independents and 2010 we were a movement. mitt isn't even the nominee yet and we are a house divided and in some ways the damage may be irreversible.
