Here's Palin on Fiorina:
"Please consider that Carly is the conservative who has the potential to beat California's liberal senator, Barbara Boxer, in November. I'm a huge proponent of contested primaries, so I'm glad to see the contest in California's GOP, but I support Carly as she fights through a tough primary against a liberal member of the GOP who seems to bear almost no difference to Boxer, one of the most leftwing members of the Senate. Carly needs our support in this crucial election year when we have a real chance of putting an end to the Pelosi/Reid Big Government" agenda.
Carly's reaction:
"I am honored and grateful to have Sarah Palin's support. She, too, is a political outsider and a strong fiscal conservative, and we share a common concern for the direction our country is headed in under Barbara Boxer and her allies in Washington," Fiorina said.

It’s becoming more clear that Sarah has bowed her head to the RINO GOP establishment.
I have just about given up on her. Will keep watch on Michele Bachmann instead and she has been terrific so far!
Palin apologists are what fuel her continued RINO endorsements.
I for one am disappointed and can’t understand why Palin herself can’t see the keys to her support.
Her highest moments were her convention speech (ripping dems), her “death panels” post (ripping) ObamaCare and every other moment when she takes the gloves off and speaks truth to power.
Endorsing Fiorina or McCain or any other GOP hack makes her part of the problem NOT part of the solution.
Spare me the “we need to elect Republicans” garbage. what we really need is to destroy these RINO candidates before they NEED us to hold our noses.
We, conservatives, should be working now to DESTROY Mitt, Pawlenty or any other RINO candidates coming down the pike. The Libs WANT us stuck with these candidates. It is our job to clean house. Use Dem tactics, opp research, everything. We must block out the (R) and see these candidates as no better than Libs.. and treat them the same way.
Shame on you Sarah
I am tired of that phrase, it’s now cliche and outworn.
This is not about perfect, this is about sense and vision. Fiorina has neither, nor does Whitman. Both are RINOs and would be as much a disaster as Schwarzenegger.
Sarah...
It was fun while the confusion lasted. FAIL!
One by one, you are removing my reasons to back you.
The California GOP is now evidently one of your trusted go-to confidants. Whew!
Every heard of Arnold Schwarzenegger? He was one of their shining stars too. Still is...
Hmmm. I think I said that some time ago and got flamed here. Between McCain and Fiorina, Palin is oh-for-two.
Amen!
TOUCHE!
Loyalty is a good thing, within reason.
I also think it is nice to see a Republican go ahead and make endorsements DURING a primary.
So many (e.g., Jeb Bush) wait until it’s over.
Palin has some guts, at least.
And what is severely flawed? Is that the enemy of good too?
Because Sarah’s endorsements have been just that.
Last straw.
next picture: Palin hugs long lost sister..Boxer
Fiorina is a McCain favorite. It’s way past time for payback to McCain for Palin. Too bad Sarah doesn’t spend some time in California and get a look at what we’re facing...and her supporting another rino sure isn’t going to help.
This old ploy of giving her the ‘benefit of the doubt’ is worn out.
If Sarah comes out to endorse someone like this, it’s because she is definitely ‘positioning herself’ to run for President. Sarah is trying to be in a position to seek endorsements as well if she runs. If Sarah was NOT RUNNING, she would endorse strictly and purely on ‘ideologically pure’ lines.
First she campaigns with McCain... I can understand that. But Devore is definitely the conservative in this race. Sorry Sarah...you are rapidly loosing credibility in my conservative book...
That original recall/runoff election was like nothing else anyone’s ever seen. BTW, I was all for Mary Carey! LOL
Perhaps.
But we'll never advance closer to perfection if we continue to capitulate and compromise on conservative principles.
Very smart move by Sarah! She again makes one very smart move!
we will be hearing that tired cliche as she enddorses RINO after RINO after RINO
“She seems to be endorsing a lot of RINO candidates.”
