A week ago, Ms. Haley said she was within days of deciding whether to endorse a candidate in the Feb. 20 GOP primary...
But Ms. Haley seemed to tamp down such speculation on Monday, using her Facebook page to post lyrics to Adele's "Rumour Has It": "Just 'cause I said it, don't mean that I meant it," she wrote. Her aides are mum this week on when, or whether, she might endorse.
Her lieutenant governor, Henry McMaster, has endorsed GOP front-runner Donald Trump....

Big question is, do people want Nikki Haley’s endorsement? She’s become a bit of a polarizing figure after the whole Confederate Flag debacle.
Smart. I’d make certain to vote against anyone this hyphenated American endorses. GOPe all the way in my book
She was going to endorse the cabana boy but he stumbled. Now she can’t easily do it
While I am sure endorsements are sometimes effective, I have personal experience of a local situation where they were seemingly very ineffective.
Far-black SC Congressman Clyburn endorsed Hillary this morning.
But I can’t see blacks turning out for a mean bossy white lady.
I thought she was endorsing Barack Obama. That’s what her speech sounded like.
Several newspapers endorsed Kasich in NH, plus he had the endorsement of local politicians as well. Christie had the endorsement of the Manchester Guardian. Bush probably had several endorsements as well.
Endorsements don’t carry the same weight that they did years ago.
I can’t remember Trump getting anyone’s endorsement in NH.
Overall endorsements have limited value. Nikki Haley’s would be more of a negative than positive. Definitely not a coveted endorsement. Nikki Haley should be recalled.
Nikki Haley is not one endorsement I would want in South Carolina
Blaming the Confederate Flag for Charleston
Trump got Scott Brown’s endorsement, the former senator from Massachusetts. Brown is popular in NH and campaigned for Trump.
Haley will endorse Rubio who is polling 3rd behind Cruz right now.
Coveted by whom?
Look Nicki Haley sold her endorsement to Mitt Romney for $35,000. She’s still taking bids for 2016 but most likely she wants to go for Rubio because she’s a RINO and now he ain’t lookin like a winner. She will never endorse Trump and doubt Cruz. Maybe she will just sit down and STFU.
Haley will probably endorse Rubio. They’re peas in a pod: two con artists who fooled Tea Party conservatives into supporting them, only to stab them in the back and side with the PC Left (Haley with the Confederate Flag, Rubio with amnesty for illegals).
That was crazy. From what I have read she appears corrupt and full of hatred for this country. She even made a comment welcoming more Syrians. Then during the great flood, she left the state. This was not reported until later when it was dismissed more or less as old news.
Haley is being groomed by the establishment as a possible VP selection for their Presidential candidate of choice, which is why pseudo-conservative media outlets like Fox News sweep all of her treachery under the rug and defend her. They're salivating at the thought of a Rubio-Haley ticket, the ultimate in the GOP's special re-branding and co-opting of political correctness.
Rush just said Clyburn DID NOT endorse Hillary.
I thought I saw it on CNN this morning, but must not have.
It is a hard decision for her between Jeb and Rubio.
