Sarah Palin's favorites: Donald Trump and Ted Cruz
CNN ^ | Dec. 15, 2015 | Eric Bradner

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.

Although if Cruz wants to appear more Presidential, he needs a new tailor.

No surprise, the 2 most dynamic, conservative candidates.

Trump may be "dynamic," but is certainly no conservative.

The best I can figure is he didn’t have a suit with him so he borrowed one of Donald’s for the photo.

Hillary Clinton? "Nyquil."

I don't know. Nyquil lets you sleep at night. Its something I'd have trouble doing with Hitlery as Prexy.

True that, I was thinking Cruz when I added that word.

Not to hijack the thread, but it reminded me of how Ann Coulter’s Mitt Romney move really cost her career wise.

Ann’s know where to be found this election cycle.

My experience tells me that many women like Rubio based on his face and speaking ability. I’m glad to hear that Sarah has the wisdom to see the snake oil salesman for what he is. Hopefully other women will follow her lead.

Christy may do well in New Hampshire but as soon as the SEC Primaries come Christy will crash.

Then again, it is a safe bet most of them voted Bush in 2000.

And exactly what the hell was wrong with voting for Bush in 2000? I proudly voted for him again in 2004. People who denigrate his service as president are ungrateful bastards.

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.


On politics? No one cares about politics when making real estate deals. Sorry Mr Trump, I would I would love to make a $20M profit on this lot I have for sale but I heard you don’t support unilateral disarmament so I guess the deal is off.

A local politician is going to stop permits because of what a BILLIONAIRE thinks about politics? Life could be very, very good or very, very bad for that person. Which would choose?
