The pledge, backed by more than 150 conservative groups and a dozen GOP Republican senators, demands that Congress not raise the debt ceiling unless .....

The key word is "unless". If they put a period after "ceiling", then I think she might sign it. The "unless" basically makes the pledge a useless symbol.

If it doesn’t include repealing Obamacare, then I agree with her.

Basically, if it’s something Mitt Romney can sign, then it ain’t conservative.

I just read on Red State that her reservation is she wants defunding of obamacare included as a precondition as well. I really like this candidate! She stays on target even with all the cheap shots from "conservative" commentators.

I agree. I hate it when a "pledge" has loopholes.
