Sarah Palin's favorites: Donald Trump and Ted Cruz

Las Vegas (CNN) - Sarah Palin isn't shy about her least-favorite candidates in the 2016 field.

Florida Sen. Marco Rubio? "Robotic."

New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie? "Embraced Obama."

Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush? "George."

Hillary Clinton? "Nyquil."

And President Barack Obama himself? "Warned ya."

Palin delivered the answers to CNN's Jake Tapper as the two played a word-association game Monday night at a "Politics on Tap" event at the Double Barrel Roadhouse in Las Vegas. It came the night before the fifth GOP presidential debate of the 2016 campaign.

Palin's comments reflect what much of the GOP's conservative base think of Jeb Bush -- that he's too much like his brother and father, both former presidents. And she showed conservatives still haven't forgiven Christie for hugging Obama in the wake of Hurricane Sandy, just before the 2012 election.

I’m looking forward to hearing from posters who will claim that Sarah Palin is “unhinged” for liking Trump. Or, they’ll ignore her liking Trump and just parrot her statement that she “likes Cruz”.

The odd thing is, when I took an Election test the other day matching up my preferences with the candidates, Cruz got a 93%, whereas Trump was at the very bottom of the Republicans (55%) pretty near Democrat Jim Webb.

Others have pointed out that Trump was a liberal his whole life until he began running for this campaign, and his positions still reflect that in many cases. It’s bewildering how many people have been suckered by him. Then again, it’s a safe bet most of them voted Bush in 2000.

Chris Christie will never be able to make amends at the embracing Obama. It shows that overall the man is stupid.

Asked what beer she’d pair with moose chili, Palin said: “It would be a good Coors Light. Yes, yes — pretty simple people.”

You wrote in Ronald Reagan in 2000, then?

In order to get business done, Trump had to get along with the local politicians, who were all Democrats. He may have not liked it,but had to be pragmatic.

What the heck does that picture have to do with this thread, LOL?

Not that I'm complaining.
