Portsmouth, New Hampshire (CNN) - For all the speculation about her motives, Sarah Palin ended the first leg of her unconventional nationwide bus tour by doing something very candidate-like: Meeting a top elected official over coffee at a quaint New Hampshire diner.
The potential White House hopeful sat down with Republican Sen. Kelly Ayotte, one of Palin's so-called "Mama Grizzlies" from the 2010 election cycle, at the Golden Egg Diner in Portsmouth.
[snip]Before heading to the airport for a flight back to Alaska, Palin said she plans to take her bus tour out West, following an upcoming Midwest swing that will include stops in the leadoff caucus state of Iowa.
She said she hopes to meet with Iowa Gov. Terry Branstad when she hits the Hawkeye State. Palin endorsed Branstad in his Republican primary last year.
Palin also revealed that she has been speaking with South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley, another Palin-backed winner from 2010, about taking the bus to the pivotal primary state of South Carolina.
"I just heard from Nikki Haley the other day in South Carolina, and she'd love for us to hit her state, too," Palin said.
Asked what they talked about, Palin responded: "Oh, just that we're gonna hook up and find each other on the road somewhere and talk about issues."

HA! The MSM and the Polls. LOL
I'm glad to see that Piper is learning to use the camera.
Peter Hamby is not respectful.
Gov. Palin deserves respect.
Peter Hamby deserves NONE.
Hamby’s a CNN tool. Of course he’s not respectful to a good and decent conservative woman.
But don’t stress about it, Palin is sure to have the last laugh. After she’s inaugurated she can revoke CNN’s media passes. MSLSD’s passes, too.
Did anyone Romney endorsed in 2010 win at all ???
Maybe it is the camera angle...but Palin looks very thin. I know she is a very fit woman, but that pic is not very flattering at all.
It’s the camera angle. With her bending over, the camera makes her bottom half look disproportionately small.
