There's no excuse for Palin not to endorse Cruz if she believes half the things she's said over the years: That's pretty much the size of it. For the first time in the Obama era, the tea party's got a guy running who agrees with them on virtually everything, especially the propensity of Beltway Republicans to sell out. And he's brilliant! And he's preternaturally good at articulating their concerns! And he's running a superb campaign, better than anyone expected! Here's the grassroots right's chance to deliver Iowa to him and make a "true conservative" the GOP nominee for the first time since Reagan. And now Palin, after eight years of preaching "constitutional conservative" solutions to the mess in Washington, is going to turn around and endorse ... Donald Trump? Neutrality is bad enough. But this?

Sad.

My self and many other conservatives will be disappointed also. But she is still a McCain supporter, so maybe she is not as conservative as we might think. Time will reveal the truth.

After hearing what Cruz is now saying about my mom, in a negative knee-jerk reaction, makes me hope my mom does endorse Trump. Cruz’s flip-flop, turning against my mom who’s done nothing but support and help him when others sure didn’t, shows he’s a typical politician. How rude to that he’s setting up a false narrative about her!
America doesn’t need that. We need someone who has a vision for economic prosperity, who won’t let us get kicked around in the world, and who will fight for our future.
I didn’t go to Harvard Law School, but I know this: You can like two people in a race, but there will only one president.
The audacity to suggest that because she chooses one over the other will somehow “damage” her just shows arrogance.
You’ve also said, “She can pick winners!” I hope you’re right, and that she endorses Donald Trump today for President.

So who knows Trump and his conservative credentials better? Sarah Palin...who actually has met and talked to him a number of times...or ANYONE on freerepublic? I’ll go with Sarah.

No conservative supports Donald Trump’s nomination. None.

Looks like a case of media celebrities sticking together if true. You’re right, it is inappropriate. Cruz deserves better than this...

I wonder if he felt the same way when Sarah Palin endorsed Ted Cruz for Senate

she and Ted Cruz have been allies since he joined the Senate,

Palin's endorsement of Cruz during his Senate race here in TX helped him win the race. He should be gracious, and not critical of Palin if she endorses Trump.

Any reason you couldn’t have added your comment there instead of wasting bandwith with a duplicate?

Your hanky is going to be getting a LOT of use if Trump wins, buddy. He will embarrass at best every single dupe who voted for him, and at worst, he will betray you. So keep that hanky handy, dear, because if your guy wins, believe me, you're going to need it not just to blow your nose into as you cry because of increased government tyranny Trump ushers in, but to cover yourself and hide because you voted for such an obvious loser, and there will be some who will think you should be accountable.

Heights, here is a truth that most people learn on the playground by the time they're in third grade: somebody who has to lie to win, is a loser even when he wins.

Trump HAS to lie about Cruz in order to get people to switch from Cruz to Trump. You vote for that at your own risk, heights, but when all kinds of bad things happen, I expect you will do everything in your power to weasel out of being accountable for what you voted FOR -- a bold-faced liar.

Cruz has given the left more ammunition than they ever needed over this birth issue. Between him and Obama we will have foreign born and anchor babies running for president from here on out.They are now using him to completely get rid of ‘natural born’ altogether.

Just out:
It’s time to remove the ‘natural born citizen’ requirement from the Constitution

What time is the big endorsement supposed to happen?

Was it John Wayne’s daughter?

Or is there more?

Cruz should not say anything disparaging about Palin who helped his senate campaign.

Bristol showed how naive she is. As far as I am concerned the spokesman spoke for millions of conservatives. If she endorses Sarah her credibility is gone.
Like is one thing.
Endorsing a left wing nut job with no character, principles, human decency and who has always been just for himself is quite another.
