Perhaps you are NOT a Newt supporter. However, most agree that her statement regarding John King, Marianne and also her push to keep Newt in the race in SC shows support. She would not say that if she wanted Newt out and supported another candidate. Have to consider her husband endorsed Newt too.
Yes, she clearly defended Newt..sorry if your man was not included.
As a matter of fact, I’m on record here at FR stating that Gingrich is my preferred candidate of those remaining. (In JimRob’s poll, I specified that I ranked my choices as Gingrich, Perry, and Santorum in that order).
I’m just cautioning against reading too much into Palin’s statements. She hasn’t gone “all in” yet, and it’s disingenuous to pretend that she has. At the same time, I could come up with quite a few potential reasons for her to be holding back, but I don’t have enough information to hazard a solid guess on which I think is right.
I do, however, have a problem with headline trolling, which is a major problem with the media (old and new) where the headline gives the impression of something that is not supported by the article.
