This is an example of why Sarah Palin does not lend a formal endorsment. It is terribly disappointing to swaths of desporate
supporters.

However, it was down to the wire in Jan’s own home state, and she is found endorsing the polling leader. Not new, and AZ is no Florida in delegates, where there it would seem tasteful and more statesman like to weigh keeping one’s mouth shut.

This was likely just retail politics for Jan.

A bit of political history:

” Speaking to attendees of the Arizona Hispanic Chamber of Commerce’s Black and White Ball Saturday night at the downtown Phoenix Sheraton, Governor Jan Brewer refused to say whether or not she would sign state Senator Russell Pearce’s police state/anti-immigrant bill SB 1070. But she assured the crowd that she understood its opposition to the measure.

“In regards to Senate Bill 1070,” she stated, “I will tell you that I never make comment, like most governor’s throughout our country, before a bill reaches my desk. But I hear you, and I will assure you that I will do what I believe is the right thing so that everyone is treated fairly.”

Her statement prompted a quip from the following speaker, Phoenix Mayor Phil Gordon, who asked the mostly Latino crowd, “I think what I just heard was a commitment to veto that bill, whatdya think?”

“Stephen Lemons of the Phoenix New Times points out that a recent Rasmussen poll shows Brewer “ahead of a wide field of contenders in the GOP gubernatorial primary” with 26 percent support. Given that two-thirds (67%) of Arizona’s GOP primary voters say that a candidate’s position on immigration is “very important” in determining how they will vote, Brewer’s decision on SB 1070 will certainly affect her comfortable lead.”

She wasn’t exactly at the front, leading the charge...but she also wanted to be the GOP nominee...

Folks , I been telling you Party Politicos, have lots of power. They simply bribe, blackmail and steal to further their agenda, and it looks a lot more like a progressive agenda, than Tea Party Conservatism.

The marching orders are in. The elite want Romney. And those left to vote in the Primaries better damn well pay attention.

And if this thing goes to Romney, lay the blame squarely on Gingrich.

Romney as our nominee is too terrifying to contemplate ... but here we go

Santorum 2012

I believe Sheriff “Stud Boy” endorsed Mitt as well.

So much for integrity.

News for you: She never had any. I know her (not personally) and have been consistent about this for years. It was nice she signed some good laws, but I was never fooled she did it for the right reasons.

To counter Brewer today......

Plenty of Rombots like her rooting for Willard to beat Rick in Michigan and not just in Brewer’s weirdo state of Baja Utah..

But to all the conservatives here who want the liberal, Willard Romney to lose Michigan this Tuesday:

“The Rick Santorum Call from Home Program allows you and Santorum supporters from across the nation to help Rick and the campaign by calling voters in key battleground states. The program is simple, easy and can have a huge impact on the election.”

I do not think anyone was waiting to make their decision on who to vote for depending on Brewer’s endorsement.

Another Sellout?

We sure are being shown the RINO's who will sell their souls for fame, and political intentions.

She will suffer the same fate as Niki Haley, when re-election comes.

If Romney-the-RINO (aka, "The Chosen One") wins the Republican Nomination, I will be doing a write-in.....I WILL NEVER VOTE FOR ROMNEY, PERIOD.

Could someone please explain HOW Romney is “electable?”

Honestly I never thought I'd see the day that a Mormon Bishop with deep "connections" in SLC would be the GOP nominiee.

What has happened to the bulk of Christianity in the USA?

And she was doing so well, too. Right up until that moment.

>> “So much for integrity.” <<

.
Jan is all for Jan.

I’m sure that someone has purchased her at a price too low to refuse.

Another stinking sell-out.

I am really beginning to hate the GOP establishment.
