Sarah Palin, the former Alaska governor and 2008 vice-presidential nominee who became a Tea Party sensation and a favorite of grass-roots conservatives, will endorse Donald J. Trump in Iowa on Tuesday, officials with his campaign confirmed. The endorsement provides Mr. Trump with a potentially significant boost just 13 days before the state's caucuses.

Both Trump and Sarah enjoy being adored by not-too-astute followers that eagerly swallow red meat conservative sound bites.
Trump and Sarah are populists who are good at talking about problems, and offer scant detail for practical solutions.
We need conservative doers, not talkers.
These are very perilous times for our nation, as we face very capable military adversaries who us harm.
We shouldn’t consider any candidates who do not have extensive solid military experience demonstrating integrity, honor, valor, competency and leadership under fire.
We’ve had more than enough politician lawyers and big businessmen who have brought us to our current sorry state.

I am now of the opinion that Trump and regrettably Ted Cruz, are not going to be able to successfully lead us through the very rough times ahead.

Good thought. Did she know he was a dual citizen when she supported him for Senator? I don’t believe that information came out until after he was elected.

Sarah sold her conscience.

Hope she got a bundle; she'll never be anything now.


She's already more than anything you'll ever be, which is a big fat, sour-graped, mewling, pathetic*ZERO*!!

I don’t really care but I find this amusing after what the Cruz camp said about Palin this morning. They should of just kept their mouths shut.


That was a sour grapes move with no value to the campaign.

I think it was the accidentally unreported loans.

You must ask the posters who wrote that.

I’ve got issues with Palin’s endorsement history not her moral character.

I don’t understand why they thought they could hold back this flood in the first place. Not paying attention I guess.

It appears someone got a copy of that film and posted it due to it

I think that has been established.

The question is, why in Tarnation would Cruz or his team allow that video to be leaked? Who are they hiring?

I figure this move will take a few weeks to "sink in."

Meanwhile, Cruz has taken some massive hits. I would not want to be in his shoes right now. This creates massive stress, and I pray that he manages to maintain decent spirits (hard to be in good spirits when yer gettin' schlonged), and continue to feel blessed for all the good things that he has in his life. Holding the office of president is an admirable goal, but only a very few attain it - not attaining it does not make one a failure, not by any stretch.

[ I forgot more about that industry than you ever knew about it. And you missed the big point. How is it possible Cruz hired the very people who leaked this video? Or why would he intentionally have it release if that were the case?

Either way, it clearly indicates his campaign is pretty loose with their decisions regarding who they trust and or hire. ]

You don’t know me you have no idea where I have worked in the past and who I have worked for in the past, so go fornicate with yourself until you get a clue.

Also, gee this is like blaming the Bank for Hiring an embezzler who didn’t have a criminal record before they were caught stealing from the Bank.
