"Todd has been very active in her campaigns, traveling and speaking on his own, You are way off base thinking that Todd Palin is some new guy to all this, a beginner."

When I talked about Todd being a neophyte, it was in the context of being interviewed by a major media outlet. As you did not come back and give examples of all the times this has happened, I assume you agree he does not have a lot of experience at this. I agree that he has lots of experience, campaigning with his wife and speaking. That's not the same as being interviewed by a media hostile to you. For an example, refer to Sarah Palin being interviewed (ambushed might be a better word) by Katie Curic. That would not happen to the Sarah Palin of 2012. She would shred Curic in the same setting. In 2008, Sarah had years of experience speaking and campaigning. Did not prepare her for being twisted around in an interview by a hostile media.

"The Palins are clearly backing Newt."

You might be right, but the article does not give us the facts to support that.

LOL

After 20 years of politics and living through a vice Governors race, a Governorship, and a Republican Presidential race as the veep couple, and 3 years of tea party leadership, Todd is no neophyte whether we dig up his 20 years of interviews or not, something that I won’t bother with.

This interview solidly, contributes to the other signals that the Palins have been sending for weeks, the Palins are backing Gingrich.

You have a twisted definition of "endorsement" that ABC does not share.

Definition of ENDORSE
transitive verb

2a : to approve openly ; especially : to express support or approval of publicly and definitely

Just because someone does not use the words "I endorse" does not mean they did not endorse them.
