It's hard not to think he did it for a reason

Maybe Sarah planned to do it herself but changed her mind halfway through.

After gingrich’s attacks on capitalism, she loses a lot of credibility if she endorses him.

He only attacked Romney’s non job creation, corporate raider type of capitalism... with good reason

I’m thinking the same thing.

The crony capitalism theme is sounding clearer.

She is making money at Fox News. She isn’t endorsing anyone.

Sarah shouldn't formally endorse anyone but maybe Todd is telegraphing. I hope so.

Hmmm... Intriguing, but does Newt have the kind of ego that will allow him to share the ticket with someone who is extremely popular, more so than he? Neither Romney nor Perry could ever share a ticket with someone more Popular than them. They are completely full of themselves and could never handle Palin as VP.

Honestly, I just don’t see Palin as anyone’s VP.

"First dude went rogue," Palin said when asked if she had been consulted

http://foxnewsinsider.com/2012/01/10/does-sarah-palin-think-any-of-the-candidates-will-drop-out-post-new-hampshire/

Will the New Hampshire Primary results force anyone out of the race, like Iowa did Bachmann?

Sarah Palin says no. She elaborated, saying, “All of them have money in the coffers so financially speaking none of them will be forced to drop out at his point, whereas Michele Bachmann was a different story. Her money started drying up and she probably, like me being such a fiscal conservative, wouldn’t want to waste any money going forward.

"Remember, Rick Perry still has a lot of money in his coffers, so if we’re speaking specifically about him finishing last tonight, there’s still no need for him to drop out tonight, especially as he’s heading into a conservative state like South Carolina."{Sarah Palin on Fox News}

Newt has cooked his own goose.

His priorities are now:
1-Get Even with Mitt for dissing him.
2-Undermining Mitt is more important than defeating Obama.

I’ve been pushing Newt for a year now...but I’m through.

Yep. My guess after seeing her comment last night, saying that the “First Dude went rogue” and that she thought he was drawn to Newt’s efforts for the working class, including vocational training (as opposed to the “Newt’s a reformer” reason that Todd gave in the announcement) is this:

She was leaning Newtward and there were thoughts of an endorsement that might also eventually lead to another VP nomination, but at least a good cabinet position. Plus, of course, she wants to see a not-Romney whom she believes can beat Obama. Todd was even more strongly leaning that way, so when he advocated for an endorsement and she wasn’t ready, she said, “Go ahead, why don’t you endorse him now yourself?”

Newt promptly went into self-destruct mode, and Todd and Sarah now see her hesitance as the wiser, but she’s pulling back to see if Newt can pull himself out the tailspin he’s got himself into.

I hope she doesn’t formally endorse anyone until we get past the foolish open primary states. Waiting a few weeks til the Florida primary would be soon enough.

I don’t either. She would have been a serious contender for the nomination herself, why would she settle for VP again?

She may endorse him but the ticket isn’t going to happen. Didn’t I see something about Newt may endorse Santorum?

No one will run with Sarah as VP again. And I doubt Newt is getting the nomination. Newt was hated by a lot of people and now he’s working on the other half.
