Appearing on 'Anderson Cooper 360' (weekdays, 10 PM ET on CNN) rocker, hunter and outspoken Tea Party supporter Ted Nugent heaped praise upon Sarah Palin, but also said she hasn't yet convinced him she has what it takes to be president. "(Palin's) coming from the street, she's coming from the we-the-people rank-and-file, she makes sense when she talks, she says all the right things, she's sincere, she's knowledgeable , she's articulate, she's damn good-looking, plus she kills moose, how can you go wrong?" Nugent gushed. However, when Cooper pressed Nugent on whether Palin would make a good president, Nugent balked. "It's too early to tell. Right know, if we had a vote, I couldn't vote for Sarah Palin. And I love her. I love her madly, and I respect her." When somebody as naturally sympathetic to Palin as The Nuge doesn't believe he can vote for her, maybe it's time we stop talking about the former half-governor of Alaska as a viable presidential candidate.Ted Nugent 'Loves' Sarah Palin, But Wouldn't Vote for Her for President (VIDEO)
Well, when you’ve lost the Republican Rock & Roll vote, you may as well go home...
I couldn’t agree with him more.
Ted should know better then to say that.
Pretty well sums up my feelings regarding her as well.

Nugent isn't yet convinced, that's fair enough. Lots of people aren't convinced but they will be when the campaigns begin.
and snide snarly closing comment by Jeremy Taylor -
half-Governor?
Gee, Nuge is the allmighty oracle that we should all look to in deciding who would be a good president....LOL!
I don’t support Palin currently for President (in the primaries) but Ted Nugent’s endorsement or lack thereof plays no part in my decision, nor should it.
Totally misleading headline.
The GOP is dead, they just don’t know it yet.
Ted must be a
We need someone who has an excellent chance to take down Zero.
Not someone who has a less than 50% chance.
The GOP is never going to allow a conservative to be it’s candidate for president.
So Romney gets the nod and Obama gets a second term....
This is my biggest fear....us conservatives are so damned divided that the left beats us...once more.
Why, he’s telling the truth and the womans approval rate is 4 points below obamma.
Ted could take down Obama...cause Barry is a jive turkey!!!!
And Ted is a good bow hunter :)
If Palin had been black, Ted Nugent would’ve been branded a racist.

Mrs. Palin not running (I am pretty sure she won’t) does not mean rinomney gets the nod.
WE Conservatives can come together — we just need a good standard-bearer. There isn’t one in sight for the moment, but I am hopeful one shall emerge.
