Video: Sarah Palin Slams Mitt Romney's Win in Florida
Opposing Views ^ | January 31, 2012 | Michael Allen

Posted on 01/31/2012 10:18:19 PM PST by 2ndDivisionVet

Appearing on Fox News tonight, former half term Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin slammed Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney by claiming that he won the Florida with money and misleading ads (video below).

Palin lamented: “I think that with $17 million purchasing some ads and some false narrative it was very, very difficult for Newt Gingrich and the other candidates to counter that bombardment of advertisements"

“$17 million spent in one state, that purchased a lot of darts and arrows that were flown in one direction and then a lot of darts and arrows were flown back and you know a lot of that negativity sure didn’t paint the party and the cause in very attractive colors. I think that hurts the electorate and ultimately diminishes the energy necessary to move forward in the general election.”

Palin also expressed her continuing support for former House Speaker Newt Gingrich: “As it stands obviously it’s Romney and Newt are closest to be the front-running candidate, and so I would continue to vote for whoever it is to allow the process, and at this point it looks like it still is Newt. You have to kind of continue to level the playing field with your vote.”

Just read that Romney will begin getting secret service protection on Thursday. Is the fix in?

The story was by ABC news and the reason given is because his crowds are so large! No way.

What the hell does this mean? “and so I would continue to vote for whoever it is to allow the process” (from the segment below). Does she have a continuing problem forming complete sentences and full thoughts?

Inarticulate or not, if she will stand up for Newt we might be able to get rid of the pretty boy half-lib and possibly get rid of the mussie, commie, effeminate sob in our white house.

“As it stands obviously it’s Romney and Newt are closest to be the front-running candidate, and so I would continue to vote for whoever it is to allow the process, and at this point it looks like it still is Newt. You have to kind of continue to level the playing field with your vote.”

So what. Obama will have a billion dollars to spend.
Is she going to complain the night of his re-election as well?
It’s seems to me her statement is stating the obvious - money helps win elections.
But somehow that didnt stop Newt from winning SC or Santorum winning Iowa.

Question! How many $17MM dollar state campaigns can Romney afford for 50 delegates? I just find it difficult to take him as a true believer in the ‘middle class’ working person. Of course it appears there is large support from the ‘coupon’ cutters.

Something that would blow Mitt right out of the water would be for Newt and Sarah to hold a joint news conference and announce they are officially teaming with Palin as Newt’s VP. For the remainder of the Primaries it would be all Newt/Sarah.

A lot because remember most of it was the CPACs. I remember we cheered the result of this Supreme Court decision. I am not sure that it turned out the way we had hoped. Obama is going to have 1 billion dollars on hand and as much CPAC money he wants. This is going to be the most expensive Presidency in history by far. Probably double or triple the last round.

If you have a problem understanding her, don't listen to her and save yourself some angst. When things are over your head, just leave them be. With your 'continuing problem' comment seems like YOU keep trying to get it but can't.
