But it IS a quote from Sarah Palin. Putting it in the headline did make it seem like more than it was, but the words were actual words that Sarah Palin said.
This certainly isn’t the first headline that has been written to be provacative. Hopefully, we are still allowed to be provacative here.
It’s also clear from the posted excerpt that she was in no way endorsing Romney — she was simply saying she would support anybody who won the nomination.
The question clearly was aimed at the idea that some conservatives, including many here, would not support Romney if he was the nominee. The reporter wanted to know if she agreed with that, and it seems she does not.
Of course, she could simply be assuming she’ll get in the race and win, so by saying this she won’t upset voters she will need later. She could just be being a good party person, pledging to support the nominee.
As I’ve said before, let’s make sure that she doesn’t have to make this decision. If she doesn’t run, let’s find a conservative we can all support to win the nomination.
Yeah, that'll work.
The FReeper motto is "My candidate is the ONLY REAL CONSERVATIVE and all the others are RINOS!"
The word provocative comes from the word "provoke", so even if you may pronounce it pro-vah-ka-tev, it doesn't mean you spell it with an 'a'.
I guess by chiding you I am in a sense being provocative.
