In an appearance on the Fox News Channels Hannity on Tuesday, Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin told Sean Hannity that the reason why she didnt endorse presumptive GOP nominee Mitt Romney during a Las Vegas speech this weekend was because she couldnt.
The Daily Caller had pointed out on Tuesday that former Palin did not even mention Romney in her speech. But, Palin told Hannity, that doesnt mean that the 2008 Republican vice-presidential nominee isnt supporting the former Massachusetts governor.
There was a reason I did not mention Gov. Romney in my speech at the Americans for Prosperity Foundation event and RightOnline over the weekend, and thats because I would have violated the ground rules for Americans for Prosperity Foundation. That you couldnt violate their I dont know if it is a 501(c)3 whatever the classification is of their organization.
No one mentioned Gov. Romney in their speeches nor endorsed anybody because that wasnt what the conference was about. My role in the conference as a matter of fact in the conference was to point out the hypocrisy, the double standards and weakness of the old media and how the new citizen journalist media can rise up and take the place of what the old media used to represent and that is telling the truth and the facts to voters.
Palin then went on to make it clear she was supporting Romney.
I have said from day one and Sean, I think you said the exact same thingL It has been anybody but Obama. We have a presumptive nominee in the GOP process after a good competitive and very spirited competition to find that presumptive nominee, Palin said. And, yes, if that vote were to be taken today obviously I would vote for for Gov. Romney over President Barack Obama in a heartbeat. I wouldnt blink because I go back to what I said at the beginning anybody but Obama.

If its already happened, then he can’t do it again. Romney won’t reverse any of it. In fact, he will advance the progressive ball more than Obama could.
If there, really, was a way to, seriously and successfully, elect enough true and decent conservatives to the House and to the Senate to the point where a RINO President Romney would be forced to the far right, politically, on all of the issues, then voting for Mitt Romney wouldn’t be as harmful to the U.S. as it will be. The next few years are going to be very bad years with, either, Barack Obama, or Mitt Romney as POTUS, and not having enough true conservatives in the next House and in the next Senate will, also, prevent all of the much needed legislative solutions to today’s ongoing problems from being, successfully, resolved.
Well I’m fine with agreeing to disagree. I’ll be right beside you in 2016 :D
“You are going to sh!! a brick when Romney is elected. Fools like you don’t know how sad and immature you are.”
1. No one here is going to be upset if Romney wins. SOME OF US just don’t want to actively participate in moving this country to the left. GET IT?
2. So now you’re resorting to insults? Have you run out of interesting, worthwhile things to say?
“...Conservatives are now the minority in the gop membership.”
BINGO. We’ve been marginalized the same way blacks have been marginalized in the Democratic Party. We’re nothing more than a bunch of gay-bashing, Bible-thumping hayseed hicks with guns who are guaranteed to gobble down whatever table scraps the leadership throws at us.

You are either a fool or a freeper-for-obama plant or both.
My money is on both.
I really don't care who she endorses - really don't. I see headlines or snippets or accounts of something or another she is supposed to have said, done or thought, but it's all just buzzing to me - no action, nothing important.
It is sad to see good conservatives such as you, living in fear, being manipulated by the politicians and their old worn-out ABO strategery.
But, I guess it works every time on the rubes.
You are not fooling anybody. You are here to support another obama term.
LLS
You are fooling somebody. Yourself.
They have to have a chance.
Everyone who is put forward has to face the knives of those who do not consider them conservative enough.
There is no understanding of where the actual voters really stand. The point is to attract enough support to actually WIN elections.
