WASHINGTON (CNN) – It looks like Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin may have one less fan.

On the same day that Palin is set to transfer power to her lieutenant governor, Republican strategist Alex Castellanos said her prospects for national office looked grim.

“’I’ve been a supporter of Sarah Palin — at times,” Castellanos said Sunday on CNN’s State of the Union. “She gave the McCain campaign its best two weeks. But, you know, if we’re going to be critical of Democrats when they shirk their responsibilities, we have do the same within our own house. She abandoned her state in the middle of a term.”

On the national political stage, Castellanos, who worked as a political consultant for Mitt Romney's 2008 presidential bid, likened Palin to former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee.

this insane fighting among the Republicans / Conservatives MUST stop !!!

The GOP is infested with leftists aka RINOs.

The fighting will end when either conservatives or RINOs are purged from the GOP.

[tobyhill]

I wasn’t ever going to vote for Romney anyway so if his clowns thinks this helps then they better think again.

It looks like Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin may have one less fan.

As if this Romneybot was ever a fan...

[Diogenesis]

If the GOP was smart, they WOULD SUE ROMNEY.

The McCain/Palin ticket was up 8 pts. days prior to September 18th.
Obama was losing until the DNC played their October surprise on the economy
and the RomneyTeam attacked Gov. Palin and her children to throw Election2008.

David Frum: "Frum was indeed a critic of Palin, calling her nomination a "huge mistake" during an October 13 Early Show appearance."

David Frum: "Two of our most plausible candidates for president in 2012 are leading Mormons: Mitt Romney and Utah governor Jon Huntsman."

David Frum: "I have a lot of regard for Mitt Romney as a man and politician.
Let me say for the record: If Romney emerges as the Republican nominee, I will support him without qualm."

Late in October, The American Spectator's The Prowler revealed:
"Former Mitt Romney presidential campaign staffers, some of whom are currently working for Sen. John McCain and Gov. Sarah Palin's bid for the White House,
have been involved in spreading anti-Palin spin to reporters, seeking to diminish her standing after the election.
'Sarah Palin is a lightweight, she won't be the first, not even the third, person people will think of when it comes to 2012,'
says one former Romney aide, now working for McCain-Palin.
'The only serious candidate ready to challenge to lead the Republican Party is Mitt Romney.
He's in charge on November 5th.'"
The Prowler added: "Some former Romney aides were behind the recent leaks to media, including CNN, that Governor Sarah Palin was a 'diva' and was going off message intentionally."
The Romney supporters in the McCain campaign had access to internal polling which indicated well in advance of the November 4 election that McCain had no chance to win.
So they began working to position their man Mitt for a run in 2012. Just two days after the election,The Palmetto Scoop reported:
"One of the first stories to hit the national airwaves was the claim of a major internal strife between close McCain aides and the folks handling his running mate Sarah Palin."
"I’m told by very good sources that this was indeed the case and that a rift had developed, but it was between Palin’s people and the staffers brought on from the failed presidential campaign of former Gov. Mitt Romney, not McCain aides."
"The sources said nearly 80 percent of Romney’s former staff was absorbed by McCain and these individuals were responsible for what amounts to a premeditated, last-minute sabotage of Palin."
These aides loyal to Romney inside the McCain campaign, said The Scoop, reportedly saw that Palin would be a serious contender for the Republican nomination in 2012 or 2016, which made her a threat to another presidential quest by Romney.
Erick Erickson, who organized Operation Leper, said:
"Here’s what I think: I think there are some staffers on the McCain campaign who seriously screwed up the roll out of Sarah Palin, to which Governor Palin herself objected.
These staffers are now out trying to finish her off thinking, as typical D.C. types do, that if they don’t do it to her, she’ll do it to them. They just never understood who Palin is or what she is about."
"Likewise, I do think there are some staffers and others who expect Mitt Romney to run again in 2012,
they decided McCain could not win, and decided to undermine Sarah Palin and her chances hoping it would ingratiate themselves with Mitt Romney."

"Who's the Palin Leaker from the McCain Campaign? (Mark Wallace, Romney pimp)
National Review Online The publication of a Vanity Fair profile of Sarah Palin
appears to have opened old wounds in the McCain campaign.
... the source of the “Diva” leak was Nicolle Wallace’s husband."

Then get to work, Snap Snap , get to work! Others are!

[9YearLurker]

Romney spent the second half of his one term in elected office running full-time for president—and MA is none the better for his time spent there!

"I’ve been a supporter of Sarah Palin — at times," Castellanos

What a lying sac of crap he is....Here is a video of Castellanos ripping into Palin the week she was rolled out as the VP candidate. This guy hated her from Day 1...

Castellanos videa

[Always Right]

No you haven't.

Exactly, he is a big fat lying sac. I posted a video of him above of this guy ripping into Palin as soon as she was announced as VP. He thought Palin was a problem for McCain.

[Vaquero]

Romney & Co. needs to be put in a burlap bag and tenderized with a 2X4....not by me you understand...and not literally....figuratively....(yeah figuratively...thats the ticket)

[Virginia Ridgerunner]

Be sure to add this piece to your growing truth file...

[rockinqsranch]

“The RINO’s are on a rampage”

Yes. The Brothers, and Sisters of the Leftist Democrats working tirelessly to wreck the Republican Party, and effectively turn our Political system into a single wacko Leftist perspective are most certainly on a rampage to promote one of their own to secure their goal.

[Cedric]

Romney is scared of Palin.

Relative to his 2012 presidential prospects, there is much to fear.

But, yours is a strange comment, coming from one who is scared of Meghan McCain.

[who knows what evil?]

People should quit listening to pundits with an agenda; and learn to form their OWN opinions. Parrots don’t make for interesting conversation...

[Wonder Warthog]

"Palin doesn’t stand a chance advancing Conservatism so long as she remains in the Republicrat party."

Why??? Reagan managed it.

[rabscuttle385]

Parrots don’t make for interesting conversation...

But they can be tasty if prepared in a creme sauce.

To borrow and bend an old Alec Guinness movie line, “The Mitt Romney campaign. You will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy.”

You will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy.

Yes you will: Obama/Soros/ACORN.

[nygoose]

I think that Sarah Palin will be extraordinarily successful at raising money.

[SatinDoll]

Sarah Palin = Ronald Reagan in a skirt.

[ejonesie22]

A Romney supporter dissin’ Palin?

I'm shocked...

Seriously....

Can't you tell?

Really...
