I also believe it will hurt Palin’s brand of she endorses Trump.

Are you threatening Palin? /s

Unlike Trump, Cruz doesn’t need an endorsement from anyone to prove a conversion to conservativism. Endorsements show momentum, but past record speaks louder than a jump-on-the-bandwagon endorsement, the only effect of which would show she has surrendered conservative values for NY LIEberalism.

If trump is elected, I fear that will be the end of constitutional conservatism, and with it, the Republic.

What do you think we are going to lose with Trump?

"Palin and Branstad = game over for Cruz"

Correct.

If Cruz does not win Iowa cleanly, his campaign is over.

It will just be a slow death march thereafter.

What could happen with Trump as president?

Amnesty. No conservative picks for the SC.

"There’s probably coin to be made for Palin Inc.?"

That will be the next unfounded allusion to come from the Cruz campaign.

Congratulations for being prescient.

Maybe Sarah’s noticed that the 900+ NEW Republicans we’ve elected since 2008 have NOT done diddly squat... Vets are still treated like crap, the border is wide open and illegals are flooding in, Social Security is on the brink, our enemies are stronger - our ‘friends’ fewer....

It’s time to elect someone who knows how to get things done - not just TALK AND TALK AND TALK AND TALK.

The person who can get things done is Trump...

It's pretty clear some people want a Pastor in Chief as POTUS and that clouds their decision making process.

No, we want leaders who fear and respect GOD from which all our rights are granted. Afar as I know, there are no clergy or anyone else campaigning for Pastor in Chief. But there are a few campaigning for POTUS who could humble themselves a bit more.

If making decisions without prayer for guidance is your angle, then George Washington should never have been allowed to lead and pray for this nation. Some of us still believe our rights are god-given, not government-given. And our Judeo-Christian values are as important today as then.

But pride has been the downfall of man and the enabler of sin throughout the ages. As a nation, if we would humble ourselves before GOD and pray for his blessing, HE will rise up godly, not prideful, men to lead us. HE has given us free-will to choose. Choose wisely because you will reap what you sow.

"Cruz camp is saying to Sarah, you either think, do, say, or believe what WE want, or we will attack you."

A Palin endorsement of Trump destroys Cruz's entire narrative on Trump, and the millions of dollars spent on that narrative with ads, talking points etc.

And it exposes Cruz as the nasty, vindictive and hateful person that everyone who knows him...already knew.

It's rare to see this degree of disloyalty in American politics.

Either way, it’s premature since nothing has been announced, though, if the Cruz team is overreacting this much already, it must be coming.

Read my post.

You mean the one I cited in my response? "Constitutional Conservatism" in general. Everything? He's big on some very important things, 2nd amendment, certainly our right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, would keep our enemies from running over us, would get the government/EPA out of business which helps pursuit of money... I guess it just went over my head, I meant specifically what you feared - just everything constitutional I guess.

“Whether he wins the nomination or not, he has already left his mark”

Indeed. Only a few weeks ago,Trump upset the whole apple cart.

Trump set the national agenda with illegal immigration and other issues that the GOPe and their allies desperately wanted to avoid, and now they can’t.

The GOPe was not prepared for this, and as a consequence they don’t have a clue about what to do, hence their almost universal collapse into a pile of quivering jello, flip-flopping like a bag of Mexican jumping beans dumped on a hot griddle.

Trump has exposed those who pretend to be conservative but are really just fronts for big money establishment campaign donors who purchase their candidates with campaign “donations”.

Trump, by actually being a real man, has exposed the other candidates (Cruz excepting of course) and their allies for the weak little sniveling sellouts that they really are.

Trump’s vociferous truth-telling and fearless neutering of the kommie media has been the catalyst that triggered a massive revolt amongst conservative voters who are infuriated at the GOPe Congress doing absolutely ZERO to stop Obama’s agenda, and suddenly the GOP RINO leadership is in full blown panic mode and in full blown retreat, and the SMALL conservative House contingent smelt blood in the water, took heart, and charged in against a weakened, frightened and paralyzed GOPe leadership, and Boehner was taken out as a sacrificial lamb.

Trump is absolutely correct when he says that without Trump in the race, everything would be same-ol’, same-ol. The Joyful Tippy-Toes Turtle would be creeping closer to the finish line, Boehner would still be safely ensconced as Speaker, and there would be no mention of illegal immigration are any of the issues surrounding it by any politician in either party, other than possibly how critical it would be to pass immigration “reform”.

The media are loath to make the connection, but it’s obvious that the Boehner resignation was yet another falling domino, toppling due to the Trump Effect, because Trump’s unabashed truth-telling and fearless neutering of the kommie media triggered a revolt amongst the great unwashed GOP masses which emboldened a few conservative Congress critters to grow a few pairs.

And we wouldn’t even be having ANY of these conversations about illegal immigration and the myriad of other Obammunist issues destroying our country if it wasn’t for Trump. Instead, we’d simply be debating which RINO, GOPe squish would be least likely to be stomped by Hillary, and the GOPe would once again be exhorting the “base” about how critical it is for us to once again vote for the “lesser of two evils”, that is, vote for the GOPe side of the Uniparty coin.

And do note that ALL of the oligarchs and plutocrats are frightened to death of Donald Trump because the billionaires and millionaires can’t buy him like all of the other politicians they routinely purchase, because Trump doesn’t need nor want their money, and the kommie media is frightened to death of him because he isn’t afraid of them either, the bottom line being that Donald Trump can not be controlled by the rich and powerful or the corrupt media, so for anyone who is truly for campaign finance reform and wants to take money out of politics, voting for Trump is the only reasonable choice.

President Trump is really the last hope for this country: if he can’t undo any of the damage wrought by the Obammunists, the U.S.A. is done.

So least we forget, the above, and much more, are called “The Trump Effect”.

No, the Cruznadians know she is coming. You can guarantee that on just the rumor of such a thing, Cruz called Sarah for confirmation. Otherwise they would be blowing this off.

They are not. They know. They are on “pout” and I’m sure stunned.

Cruz camp is saying to Sarah, Freepers and other voters you either think, do, say, or believe what WE want, or we will attack you. Must toe the line, or you are not a REAL conservative, a TRUE conservative, a REAL Christian, blah, blah, blah.

You will know them by their fruits. Labels are NOTHING.

“You are putting your faith in the man who admits, without shame, that he has been one who routinely buys politicians to get what he wants, and you think he’s going to clean up that mess?”

Rather naive.
