Yeah, that’s what I’m drooling over myself for - Bush’s endorsement - NOT! We all know who he is gonna recommend - like father, like son.

Palin’s endorsement I will consider.

Bush’s endorsement gets thrown in the trash heap.

GWB has done a pretty good job as a former president. Unlike Carter and Clinton he stays quiet. I hope he stays quiet.

Endorsement tell more about the person doing the endorsement than the person they are endorsing.

3+ years of Obama has done so much to improve Bush’s image.
Another term by Obama and Bush will be looking like George Washington...

So who should he endorse?

Who in their right mind would give any value to dumbo Dubya’s endorsement? Bush was and is a complete failure and a disgrace.

Thanks for posting. They both will have powerful voices, though I am still supporting Newt no matter who they align with.

GW’s parents have already endorsed Mitt. It makes me think GW will do that as well or stay out of the election. Palin, I see supporting Newt. If she endorses Mitt, her credibility as a conservative will be destroyed by many who see her as an true outside voice against liberalism gone to the extreme and the corruption in which she fights against.
If Mitt wins, she may come back and ask us all to unite to stop Obama. That might be one thing, I will not be able to do, even for Sarah because I am tired of being lied to (vote for me, then they go left).

Dubya is big on letting the people decide.

My bet is that he will not endorse until the GOP has a nominee.

Interesting how they call Trump a top GOP figure. Last I checked, he had changed to independent. He’s not even a Republican anymore.

I wish they had explored this more. Gone into more detail. W is an establishment guy. I think the people likely to be swayedby him are already with Romney. His endorsement might increase their confidence in backing Romney, but I don’t know whether it would cause people supporting others to switch to Romney. I don’t know much it would improve Romney’s position. I think it would just reinforce that Romney is the establishment pick.

I’d guess that those who said yes for Palin otoh, aren’t with Romney now and are currently divided among Newt, Santorum, Perry, etc... Her endorsement could well be more effective than W’s in that I think it has a greater potential to lift someone up and actually change the #s.

Bush’s endorsement?!?

If that big-spending, big-government, totalitarian freak endorses someone, I’m *NOT* picking that one as a candidate.

Palin, I might listen to...

Rush, Mark Levin... and the rest have more influence than those two ever will.

I would rank who would have most influential as:

1. Rush Limbaugh
2. Sarah Palin
3. Dan Chaney
4. George Bush

Answers a question from the other day. But, I expect GWB won’t endorse the (R) candidate until the general election. And, Gov Palin, who’s clearly stated on several occasions that her candidate is ABO (anyone but Obama) won’t endorse until late in the primary.

an endorsement from Bush was found to have the most positive impact on voters

Polsters know what poll results will sell and make them money.

In unverifiable polling I will trust. /

To: Sarah Palin

Sarah, your country NEEDS you. We can honor your decision to not run for this office yourself, but a Mitt Romney nomination will be a DISASTER!!!

You can turn this primary process into a victory for Conservatives!

PLEASE schedule a visit to SC and strongly endorse and campaign for Newt Gingrich.

Newt can defeat Obama, AND he will REVERSE the Obama nightmare.

Romney has a HISTORY of supporting abortion, gay-marriage, higher taxes, and ObamneyCare.

Romney will be easily defeated by Obama, and he would NOT reverse Obama's policies.

PLEASE Sarah, help us win back this country!!!
