I’m sure the conversation went something like this:

GOP establishment: Governor Haley, endorsest thou our Most Holy Candidate Mitt Romney, and thou shalt receive the blessings for re-election from our Holy PACs.

Haley: Uh, OK.

Guess that explains her 36% approval rating.

I am not happy that our Governor is endorsing Romney. But dont buy into that 36% approval rating garbage.

Most South Carolinians love her... she is a good Governor and her ratings are much higher than 36%/ Whatever polls reporting that are not correct!

I guess an endorsement automatically enters one into the Mitt Romney Vice Presidential Sweepstakes.

If you win, instead of a visit from Ed McMahon you get one from a used car salesman...

He was a big donor to her campaign and endorsed her. PAYBACK.

If Mitt turns to be the nominee, get a Republican congress. Mitt won’t fight a strong congress.

supposedly the Winthrop poll put her at a 36.4 approval rating but the SCGOP refutes that! She has only been in a year once the economy picks up, when the republican take the WH and Senate. She will recover with the economy!

She wanted to endorse Romney the day after she was elected.

This is a genuine disappointment.
One thing for sure about this Romney campaign - - it is exposing a whole lot of principle-less phonies.

I’m not there and I sure don’t know as much as you, and sure not disputing as you are on the ground, but just saw 2 or 3 polls tonight with those numbers for her. And, yeah, polls are, well .. just polls .. but they DO have some basis in reality.

But, as they say, the only one’s that matter are those on election day. =)

This is one of the 3 I’ve seen. http://www.thesunnews.com/2011/12/10/2543560/voters-souring-on-new-governor.html

He won't have to. Obamao has set the imperial precedent of endless "executive orders" which are on par with legislation.

God help us all if former Governor Sarah Palin decides to endorse Mitt Romney.

I cannot imagine the wailing and shrieks of rage from sea to shining sea if she were to embark upon such folly.

“If Mitt turns to be the nominee, get a Republican congress. Mitt won’t fight a strong congress.”

Boehner, McConnell and Romney. What could go wrong?

If he is the nominee I expect she will on the ABO doctrine. During the primary I would be very surprised.
