From the clips I watched, it looked pretty good. My only disappointment with her was that she is taking up the “anyone but Obama” mantra. Romney does not deserve conservative support, even passive support. However, Sarah is a politician and she will burn her bridges to not back Romney IF he sews it up. You could tell she wasn’t too happy with having to accept Romney, but she tired hard to put on the game face.

Folks, we cannot win an election based purely upon “anybody but Obama” mentality. I for one cannot ever even passively support Romney because he does not represent even minimal standards in what I expect in a candidate.

Merely voting “against Obama” instead of “for someone” is a recipe for a loss. Plus, it would be better to lose with a conservative running.....at least we have something to be for instead of merely against.

I like both Newt and Santorum. I understand many on this forum loath Santorum (I suspect it is mainly because he is a true social conservative), but at this phase if folks would support him then we can keep Romney for winning on a first ballot. The convention will be open and “possibly” a conservative could emerge. As it is now, we will be stuck with Romney. Not even coming up to minimal standards of acceptability, IMO. Hence, apathy and no turn out in the general election with a sure fire Obama victory. And as I have stated before, I’m not sure Romney would be any better than Obama.

You Vote for the “one” you want in the Primary. If your “one” doesn't make it to the finish line, you Vote for the winner of your Party's Primary in the General.

Just because your guy doesn't make it, and as a Newt Supporter I feel your pain, does not mean you abandon the Battlefield and let your ENEMY win without paying for every foot of Real Estate along the way.

Sarah was not endorsing Romney, she just knows how to count Delegates. Get over yourself.

Your last sentence tells me everything I need to know about your priorities. What an ignorant statement. Are you paying attention to what is happening right now? Imagine Obama with nothing to lose, because that is what this Country will be getting if he wins reelection.

Anybody but Obama or say goodbye to the America you once knew. I could never have imagined things would be this bad, but they are. Now we know what the pencil necked Marxist and his Minions are capable of. You don't bow to Evil.
