With Trump clearly in the lead (last polling I saw showed him at 42% to Cruz’s 27%) if the GOPe steals the nomination from him and puts in their boy... I will *not* be voting for their choice. I don’t know if I will abstain, write-in Trump, or write-in “Deez Nutz” in protest. No more GOPe - they are just ‘rat-lite, a slightly different shade of commie. I’m done with them.
...and she pulled an Obama when she bailed out as governor of Alaska.
Well, Trump has the most electoral votes, so far, at least.

I agree. The fact that Sarah said that GOP power brokers taking the nomination away from “Trump OR CRUZ” is unacceptable is telling. Including the two words “or Cruz” may be one of the reasons the Trump campaign pulled Sarah from attending Saturday’s Wyoming State convention as a surrogate.
Trump sure as hell is touchy.
I would have considered voting for Sarah Palin if she weren’t running with John McCain at the time. She has a great logic. It’s history. I’ll have to take a giant gulp of undecided if Rubio were actually brought on board with Trump. I’ve pretty much lost faith in Cruz but so long as he doesn’t bring aboard someone like Rubio, I would likely vote for him if he gets the nomination.
He can't get it any other way after New York. He has planned for months to pull some underhanded stuff at a contested convention it, is the only possible way for him to get the nomination
I would be curious to know what specifically you find wrong in Sarah’s statement?
As usual, I find that Sarah has echoed Free Republic founder, Jim Robinson’s sentiments. So, what gives you indication that Sarah is in the descent mode?
Then you haven't been paying attention (or FR probably) because there are more "Cruz or Lose"ers than the other way around. Most of us Trump supporters (many started as Cruz guys but saw the light and then the slime) would still vote Cruz if by some miracle the same system he is so adept at manipulating were to allow him the nomination in a contested convention. We believe his playing spoiler is a fully aware decision to be the cat's paw for the GOPe/RNC because he has his heart so set on being President that he couldn't allow himself to step down w/o going suicidal. Far more Cruz guys who wouldn't vote for Trump if he rightfully claims the nomination.
The Republican party of Florida did this sort of thing a few years ago.
When Lt. Col. Allen West ran against Joe Klein the first time, The RPOF did NOTHING to help him at all. West lost that election, but only by a few points. It was remarkable that, with only grass-roots efforts on his behalf, West was able to get as many votes as he did.
West won the next time, in 2010. It was a great victory for the Republican party in that district, defeating the democrat incumbent who had been ensconced there for decades.
Once West was elected, the RPOF did all they could to discourage him. They ended up redrawing the lines of the district, effectively putting West out of a job.
Whatever you think of Allen West (and there are some FReepers who really don’t like him), one has to admit that this was just plain wrong. Changing the convention rules at the last minute just because the PTBs don’t like the People’s Choice smacks of tyranny, and I, for one, am sick of it.
Bottom line: Hillary wins. U.S.A. ends.
I am disgusted. I just had my NRA safety instructor tell me she is voting democrat because the repubs are so out of control. I am not sure if she was joking but I dont think so.
That is not the way to deal with this!!! IMHO
He won’t.
He has no honor.
I burst out laughing when I saw this one! :)
EXCERPT.....re LYIN’ TED
While Palin said she could support Cruz, she said it was “unfortunate that he has people around him who are not truthful. I sure want to believe it’s the people around him and not Cruz as a person who would flip-flop on so many issues,” including trade and immigration.
“He was there at the border incentivizing illegal families coming on over the border with gift baskets of soccer balls and teddy bears and now he says he was never for amnesty. Yes, you were, dude, come on,” Palin said.
And here you are again, making a false claim while making an a** out of yourself, again.
What’s the matter sport, a woman outfoxed ya?
Cruz = amnesty - seems everyone knows this except for cruzettes
