When asked if she has a candidate she would like to endorse in the 2012 GOP field, Fmr. Gov. Sarah Palin (R-Alaska) said she hasn't made up her mind as of now, and that it wouldn't matter. Palin said her endorsement would amount to a "hill of a beans."
"I think today, my personal endorsement, probably doesn't amount to a hill of beans today, at this point in the race," Palin said on FOX News' "Hannity" program.
Palin said later in the race perhaps her endorsement may have more weight, but admitted at this moment it doesn't matter. Referring to herself as a pundit, Palin said voters have to do their homework and shouldn't rely on the endorsement.
"I am leaning toward the candidate who can best articulate he being the antithesis of Barack Obama. He understanding what it takes to reform our country and not allow it to be fundamentally transformed away from the exceptionalism that is America. But, he who can promise to because he has experience in doing so," Palin said when asked what kind of candidate she would endorse. Transcript below....

Amen!
And campaign for that nominee.
Whoever it is.
There is a small group of ranters here (aided and abetted by a mod or two) who think that FR should consist of only those who agree with them, on every issue, 100.0000%.
Arguing with them is just like wrestling with the apocryphal pig, except that here, the pig can sometimes get you kicked out of the arena.
Ignoring them is the only rational response.
Bizarro World indeed. Fundamentally, the Left and its subsidiary, the smelly counterculture movement, have in just a few short decades turned traditional Western concepts of normal civilization upside down:
Good is bad, yes is no, etc.
I remain hopeful that there is a vast undercurrent of Americans (despite the election disasters of the past few years), who recognize this destructive trend and will act and vote accordingly in the future.
She thrives on being underestimated, as we already know. Just another thing I like about her.
Trump’s endorsement is way more valuable.
I don't think some freepers realize that FR is a segment of a segment of a segment of a segment of the American public.
Yeah, 'cause we all know there's only three things women are good for, right? What're pissant and jla up to these days? Post a photo of your clubhouse sometime, will ya?
You must travel in very restricted circles, because I know plenty of them.
Can't do it. All my establishment elite cocktail circuit
buddies would be mad. OPSEC, you know. Especially Rove.
That guy is a pain about such things sometimes.
bttt
I demand to see a list!
I suppose it all depends on who you surround yourself with. I know many people who are as excited about Sarah Palin today as they were Ronald Reagan in the 1980s. They have been completely unaffected by the negative image given her by the leftist media and base their opinions of her on her politics and what she stands for. I can't say I agree with them or her on every issue -- but when it comes to Sarah Palin being representative of the conservative cause she remains second to none.
Palin 2012. I’m not going to say you’ve got nowhere else to go. The other guys’ performance is saying it for me.
Excellent post#23, wardaddy.
Excellent, excellent, excellent.
I’m going to print it out and post it up on my wall over my computer screen.
I peeked in the lunchbox ... We should be so lucky.
A grilled salmon sandwich, a hot thermos
of moose chili and an apple. mmmmm - mmmmm - mmmmm ;o)
As a formerly patently avid Sarah supporter in the last couple of years, I have come to realize she is not what I’d have expected. Her endorsement, or condemnation for that matter, means relatively little to me at this point. I can make up my own mind, Sarah, thank you very much for the dashed hope you once offered.
Then we lock the doors and don't let her out until she's drafted. BAM!
I think its hilarious how she baits then kills hope with her crony capitalism tweet. Now who did she equate to crony capitalism???
Honestly, she’s right. Her endorsement doesn’t amount to a hill of beans. People should make up their own minds and not rely on someone else to make the decision for them.
Of course, there’s still one very vocal group that’s living under the illusion Palin will endorse their guy...
