(CNN) – She may not be publicly endorsing a candidate for president, but Sarah Palin clearly has a favorite in the ongoing campaign feud between Mitt Romney and Newt Gingrich.
In a post on her Facebook page Friday, the former Alaska governor praised Gingrich's Ronald Reagan connections, while questioning Romney's conservative credentials. Ultimately, Palin said the GOP establishment backing Romney were "cannibals" for attempting to discredit Gingrich.

"I am in favor of contested primaries and healthy, pointed debate," Palin wrote. "They help focus candidates and the electorate. I have fought in tough and heated contested primaries myself. But what we have seen in Florida this week is beyond the pale."
Palin, whose husband Todd endorsed Gingrich earlier this month, said tactics used against the former House speaker were reminiscent of attacks against her during her vice presidential bid in 2008.
"The difference in 2008 was that I was largely unknown to the American public, so they had no way of differentiating between the lies and the truth," Palin said. "All of it came at them at once as 'facts' about me. But Newt Gingrich is known to us – both the good and the bad."
Gingrich's relationship with Nancy Reagan, along with an endorsement from Reagan's son Michael, should speak to the former speaker's record as a conservative, Palin argued.
"There are no two greater keepers of the Reagan legacy than Nancy and Michael Reagan," Palin wrote. "What we saw with this ridiculous opposition dump on Newt was nothing short of Stalin-esque re-writing of history."
Borrowing one of Gingrich's favorite campaign lines, Palin said the mainstream pillorying of Gingrich was "Alinsky tactics at their worst," referencing the radical community organizer Saul Alinsky, who Gingrich namedrops frequently on the stump
Palin boiled down the race to a tug-of-war between mainstream Republicans backing Romney, and grassroots activists unwilling to fall in line behind the establishment pick.
"I respect Governor Romney and his success," Palin wrote. "But there are serious concerns about his record and whether as a politician he consistently applied conservative principles and how this impacts the agenda moving forward. The questions need answers now. That is why this primary should not be rushed to an end. We need to vet this."
Palin ended months of speculation in October when she announced she wasn't seeking the GOP presidential nomination. Political observers have been looking for an endorsement from the former governor ever since, but have thus far been left hanging.

Okay, maybe I'm missing some Alaskan history here, but what primary was Sarah Palin in that was so hotly contested? Governor? She wasn't exactly fighting to win the Republican nomination back in 2008. Or 2012.
Who cares what she says. She was unwelcome on the 2nd day of her run for VP. Just doesn't get the message that we don't like her, does she?
makes you wonder when some republican will be crazy enough to dig up reagan's grave and finally bone him (pun intended)
FLORIDA VOTERS – VOTE NEWT GINGRICH!
NEWT GINGRICH – is the candidate that HUGE GOVERNMENT WASTE does not want to be elected!
NEWT GINGRICH – is the candidate that will get HUGE GOVERNMENT WASTE focused on a Balance Budget which is a new experience for Washington Government lately!
ROMNEY and OBAMA is more of the same......not more OBAMACARE or ROMNEYCARE!
"YOU GO – NEWT GINGRICH!"
Sarah, you are going to have call Mitt out for lying, or its all over.
Uh oh, Palin's talking about stuff she knows nothing about, again. "Alinsky tactics"? Better leave the references to the pop culture nexus of the Baby Boom to your elders, Sarah.
In any case, all Saul Alinsky did was give tips to the activists of his era on how to organize and how to deliver political messages effectively. The Tea Party availed itself of "Alinsky tactics" quite brilliantly in 09, as I recall.
Who cares what this inarticulate person has to say.
Ms. desperate is worried that a Newt-less administration would have no position for her. How can she not realize how toxic she is for any candidate?
Why is it then, that every second she is in front of a camera, she takes the opportunity to bash President Obama in a not so "healthy" way? So I guess it is alright to demonize a Democrat and say all sorts of hateful things, as long as you treat a Republican with respect. Newt has had a far more shady career as a politician than Mitt and I am sure that a Palin endorsement will only hurt Newt's chances.....so keep up the good work Sarah! Please endorse both of them while you are at it.
Dear Lord-not her again!!!! She and Newt are 2 of a kind!
OBAMA/BIDEN 2012
Ah, yes. The politically astute and highly intelligent Palin speaks out again. We've been anxiously awaiting her wise and profound words. Seriously, who writes this stuff for her? We all know that she can't write a complete sentence with big words in it. And if she's endorsing Gingrich, whoa! There's a kiss of death if I ever saw one! One slimeball endorsing another slimeball.
She is such a cry baby. Sarah s hit or get off the pot. Endorse him or shut up. Everyone knows all the noise you made this week is to get an audience in CPAC next week. How much are they paying you for that, anyway?
Ronald Reagan was a showman. He was NOT a good president. He could stand toe-to-toe with the political and religious rock-n-rollers of the 80's, but his administration passed laws that we're still suffering from.
For some reason, the GOP want to turn Reagan into a saint. He wasn't. He was an actor with political affiliations and just happened to be president in a time when being an actor was an asset. But he wasn't a good president.
Sounds to me like Mrs. Palin is a bit of a cannibal herself. Democrats need to just sit back and watch them eat one another alive.
Sarah Palin, holier than thou you would think has done things like attack Michelle Obama for wanting to help children get fit and reduce obesity, yet she has NO problem whatsoever with Newt's third wife Calista being his mistress while he was married to his second wife. If Mrs. Obama had the past that the present Mrs. Gingrich has you think Palin wouldn't go after her on it? YOU BETCHA she would. Palin is indeed full of it.
The thing speaks
anyone but Romney, even SP maybe!!
NOT
This party has become so fractured if they do not pull it together they will lose 2012
........................ as McCain travels all over the place endorsing Romney and belittling Newtered .........................
oh NO - I'm down to my last package of popcorn. Store run tomorrow for Gatorade and popcorn.
Apparently she does not know Gingrich Money Man is under criminal investigation by the justice department and the SEC for alleged bribery of foreign officials and ties to the chinese mafia. This is the man buying Newt Gingrich.
Palin needs to make up her mind with what she wants and stick with it. It seems to me that she only wants one candidate to be vetted and that is Romney and that Gingrich should get a free ride. But then she goes on about how Romney might hurt the Republican cause. Gingrich is a historian and he wants to write his own history, but most individuals that try to do that only write it as they see it. History can only be written after the fact and Gingrich may have had great success but many times it is your weakness and failures that you are most remembered by. Gingrich lost sight of what a great leader is and that is to fight for the cause of those that put you in office and not your own grand ideas. Most if not a majority of Republicans leaders that know Gingrich and I mean really know Gingrich have a great concerns about him because for one he thinks he is owed something and two that he only works for one person and that is himself. Gingrich is the one that wants to drag the thing on. He should take a clue from Palin and just quit.
She's back ! How exciting !
This woman has become a disgrace. She talks about family values and yet she supports Newt, a man who thinks having a wife is for show and a tool to become President. She talks of being an outsider and decries Washington, but yet she supports Newt, a man who spent his entire political career in Washington. She has shown herself to be someone who supports no one who doesn't believe in what she believes in. In other words, she believes in supporting a "purity" candidates instead of someone who can actually win. This woman represents all that is wrong with the GOP's far right wing of the party. The Tea Party die hard and the evangelicals are all whom she'll be able to win votes with. If that's the case, kiss the general election good bye if she gets her wish and Newt Gingrich becomes the nominee.
Who's Sarah Palin? Should I know her from some public office that she holds?
Just what Gingrich needed after his humiliating performance against Romney last night, the kiss of death. Compliments from a known loser and know nothing explaining her version of 'facts!' I'll miss Gingrich and his wild schemes. He is at least independent, sort of, except his being owned by big Vegas money.
It's still all about her. She is so self centered that is her only point of reference.
She brushes aside the tactics she used to portray our president as un-american, radical and "pallin' around with terrists". Meanwhile she was associated with the Alaskan group who wanted to secede from the union. Pathetic.
From the article:
Palin, whose husband Todd endorsed Gingrich earlier this month, said tactics used against the former House speaker were reminiscent of attacks against her during her vice presidential bid in 2008.
"The difference in 2008 was that I was largely unknown to the American public, so they had no way of differentiating between the lies and the truth," Palin said. "All of it came at them at once as 'facts' about me. But Newt Gingrich is known to us – both the good and the bad."
strongly I condem the word she used crucification.this word not supposed to be used in politics.It hurt many christian
feelings.
Who care what she thinks! Seriously. . . She's been discredited in every way and she's by no means an expert in. . . anything.
Palin questions inconsistencies in Romney's record, but she sees no problem with Newt's record? Clueless. If Palin were truly a "voice" of conservatives, she would back Santorum, not Gingrich.
The only difference between Sarah and Newt is one is smart and crooked while the other is an idiot and crooked . . .
does anyone care about what Sarah thinks anymore? Or did we ever? she is not the sharpest tack in the drawer now or was never! Please, Sarah, go back to Alaska and the tundra!
Yeah, well the drunk down the street said something entirely different. C'mon CNN – just stop with the coverage of this woman's irrelevant opinions.
Why does she keep crawling from under her rock. I can believe she would be for Nitwit Newt...birds of a feather. However, if Newt were to get elected (BIG IF), maybe Sarah and the rest of the Adams Family would be in line for that trip to the moon. She could be governor of the Great State of Lunacy!
Sarah, you lied to us in your first national address....repeatedly. I haven't believed a word you've said since.
Why do we care what Sarah Palin thinks or has to say?
If anyone should know a thing or two about cannibals it's this woman. Her and The Newster make a great couple – two con artists making a great living off the ignorance of the masses.
Do we really care what Sarah Palin thinks or says?
She's right .
Dinosaurs and Cannibalism.
Palin said the mainstream pillorying of Gingrich was "Alinsky tactics at their worst". Who else is thinking that up until about a week ago Palin not only had never heard of Saul Alinksy, but had no idea what role he played in the political history of our country? This is much like Palin’s over-the-top drama queen martyrdom moment last year when she foolishly used the term “blood libel”, and her teenage daughter’s use of the words “canard” and “incredulity” while pitching a Facebook hissy fit directed at Keith Olbermann - there’s absolutely no way in hell this vacuous harpy or her offspring could ever come up with this unbelievable crap on their own. What a phony!
Yawn... snore...
Who cares what this woman has to say.
Palin, the loser, does not know what the **** she is talking about
If I were Romney, I would be relieved Sarah wasn't supporting me.
Gingrich and Palin are both after the money. They both have self serving interest!
Hmmmm - cannibalism? Is that worse than Limp and Impotent?
So much hate is such a tiny person. Nothing but pure unadulterated hate. How awful it must be to be her.
The Queen of Tea. The kiss of Death. Bye Bye Newt...
"I respect Governor Romney and his success," Palin wrote. "But there are serious concerns about his record and whether as a politician he consistently applied conservative principles and how this impacts the agenda moving forward.
________
Stupid Sarah,
Please explain to us how Gingrich cheating on wife 1 with wife 2, and then cheating on wife 2 with wife 3 demonstrates anything remotely resembling "conservative principles".
Why does she defend one of the cannibals?
Dear Sarah.....she never was very smart..... According to Websters, a cannibal is" one who eats human flesh.'!! Now we know she probably knows this, but she is so quick to put her own slant on things that one must wonder. I'm curious.....she's been quiet for so long....wonder what woke her up...surely she's not planning on running for something other than a bus!!!.....OH I KNOW.....SHE HASN'T HAD HER FACE ON CAMERA FOR MONTHS......That's it!!!!!OK Sarah.........here you are!!!!!!!!
You tell them Sarah. I will believe you until I am blue in the face. your the person for the United States and should be President. I can wait for 4 years but please give it considerable thought. Do not pay any attention to the dirt mongers who support Obama they are so foolish they have no ideal that he is only using them to destroy America. WE WILL OVERCOME. PALIN President 2016
Glad to see she's still wearing those MC HAMMER glasses. Must have the HAMMER just rolling in the royalites.
"The difference in 2008 was that I was largely unknown to the American public, so they had no way of differentiating between the lies and the truth," Palin said. "All of it came at them at once as 'facts' about me. But Newt Gingrich is known to us – both the good and the bad."
And don't forget the ugly.
she wasn't governor for a full term in the 4th least populated state – why is she weighing in on presidential elections?
Ms Palin needs to go back to Alaska. She is a has been or better yet, never was..................
Obama/Biden 2012
This right here Is why Saran Palin Is so dumb. No body has Discredit Newt Gingrich ,but Newt Gingrich. It was Newt Gingrich that cheated on two wife and It was Newt Gingrich that work for Fannie Mac has a lobbyist. And It Newt Gingrich that Is Lying all the Time. And now that he got you taking for him make him have even a less chance of winning. So the best thing for everyone Saran Palin Is for you to just stop talking because nobody care about what you think.
Former Governor Palin please shut up and go away! Why don't you quit again!
The way this half-baked governator lies, it's a darn golly-gosh good thing she has a "get out of Hell free card". Psst..Sarah, you DO KNOW what he's gonna make you do for that Cabinet position, don't cha??
As usual, Sarah is right. I believe doing the right thing is the right thing to do. Why such little trust in the American people, Republican establishment? It will backfire, I am sure. Romney is doing himself in as he smears a fellow Republican – he will have no defense when Democrats do it to him. Live by the smear and die by the smear.
Why should the republicans not lash out at a candidate who keeps promising to destroy the status quo?
Hey Mittens with your job creation record in full view both as governor of a state and Bain CEO, you have got nothing on President Obama. OK. And by the way how many jobs did you create with those accounts you hid in foreign banks. You are a "REAL" patriot Mr Mitt R-MONEY.
So, when there's a Palin story the hate will begin from the hateful left in.......3........2........1
Mitt Romney's job creation record as governor was abysmal, his state ranked 47th in the nation. This is a record only Mitt Romney could be proud of.
this woman is not relavent . The repo party just gets crazier by the day. Do you really want one of these clowns representing the USA???
I am a democrate and I will be voting for O bama but if Obama could not get it i gurantee you I would want Ginigrich to get it . The news people are trying to put Rommey in the president chair it will never happen i would bet you on that I go along with Palin on that you think people is going to be bought and paid for by Rommey you are far off base . We have enough people that over 60 years old in the united states that will either vote democrate or put Ginigrich in the white house but it will never be Rommy forget it Gloria Bolger you are not as smart as you think you are if you think anybody wants a millionare or a Morman for president you do not know the united state people like I do it aint going to happen so give it up all the smear ads are making people mad and angry we have more sence than letting some idiots pick the PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES GET REAL
When someone has an opinion that's different from Palin's, she cries foul. I don't know anyone who finger-points, accuses, and calls names as well as this screeching sea hag. I'm so glad she's doesn't hold political office anymore.
There she is!! Stupid as ever.
This woman knows this country is tired of her stupidity and HYPOCRASY....!
This is the same person that used personal attacks against the President and his wife, thats fine with her and her robotic followers, I mean she has the nerve to complain about something that she has engaged in for the last 3 years....
I also thinks she knows a large percentage of America see's right through her small minded brain, this woman is PATHETIC, please go away, no one takes you seriously MRS Death Panel, Palling around with Terrorist stupid woman....!
When the GOP tries to please the extreme right-wing and the uber-rich rather than work toward America's problems they can expect fragmentation at the national-level. Palin is of course a moron, yet she exposes a larger problem. It's tough to make public statements geared towards a small fragment of the population then appease the general population when the campaign goes national. You can't be a Fox News conservative and a moderate with pragmatic solutions in today's media-based political environment. We are watching the implosion of the Republican Party.
Yep, it figures Sarah would endorse that nut case. Again, I have never seen the GOP is such a mess. It seems to have started when McCain tried to bamboozle the country into voting for him and Caribou Barbie and it has gotten worse. That gave rise to those Tea Party nuts who elected those idiots who don't know when to fight the president and when to agree. They continually fight him, to the detriment of the entire country. My prediction is that when the country finally implodes, there will be a GOPer in the White House.
Well if Palin endorses Gingrich I been won over. I still would only support Dr. Paul in the GOP field but he's not going to win.
It's awake again. Someone must have said her name three times like it takes to get Candyman to appear.
Palin's opinion is usally wrong. We didn't need her near the White House, nor should we have Gingrich in it.
Hey Sarah! No one cares that you think a pompous man who cheats on his wives is somehow more 'conservative' than a man who has been faithful to one wife and actually worked in business. Your reasons are flawed; your adoration of Reagan misplaced, and frankly, your endorsements are meaningless. Go home, raise your kids, and be a grandmother to how many now? Oh, and it would be a plus if one of your children actually stayed in school long enough to graduate.
Sucks for newt.
It is sad to see the "establishment" try to control the outcome, and in effect disenfranchise the voters.
Thanks Sarah.....Hi from Glen You know in college Glen Rice...
Yes I agreed with you about Gingrich...I respect the affairs he has had to.
Why isn't anyone reporting the fact that neither Santorum or Gingrich can win the delegate count needed for the nomination?
Newt isn't on the ballot in Virginia,Missouri,or Ohio!
Santorum isn't on the ballot in Virginia or Illinois.
They would have to get at least 60% of the vote from here on out!Only Romney and Paul are on the ballot in ALL 50 states!
Marco Rybio! then Jeff Bush offering advice to temper down and perhaps somehow vehind the scenes they ask the favourred cndidate to step up hoping that the psyche of the other would have been damaged enough to make him unsure of where he belong on major issues. This brings us right back 'Nasty' Pelosi and what she claims to know that undercuts Newt's Preeidential ambitions may have its roots in the Republican establishment.
I knew it was just a matter of time before they would start eating each other. It's called Mean Cuisine.
A Presidential Candidate talked against the "War on Religion" at a Debate!
The "War on Religion" is this Candidate who COMMITTED
ADULTERY ON HIS 1ST WIFE AND THEN DIVORCED HER!! Then he married his
Mistress and COMMITTED ADULTERY ON HIS 2ND WIFE MISTRESS with a House
of Representatives Staffer! Then he divorced his 2nd wife and married the Staffer
Mistress as his 3rd wife!!!! THIS PERSON...THIS HYPOCRITE IS THE" WAR ON RELIGION"!!
Newt is a conservative. In the last week I've heard him say that when he is Pres he will build a new aircraft carrier division and station it in Jacksonville, Fl. Then he will see to the overthrow of the Cuban government. By the end of his 2nd term he will have established a permanent base on the moon. We are already overspending 1.2 trillion dollars a year. How does he expect to balance the budget and take on these massive projects at the same time. Washington cannot make any substantial cuts and Newt or Romney won't change that. They are making a big deal about cutting the military budget by 500 billion (over 10 years}. Sounds like a lot till you think that at the current rate of the spending, 10 years equal 6.9 trillion dollars, it sounds like a drop in the bucket.
They all know that when you step into the political arena, your life is open to all scrutiny, good, bad and indifferent.
Palin looses credibility when she defends a man who cheated on his first wife and then again on his second wife. To picture Newt “the cheater” as the leader of the country – is a disgrace.
What does Ms. Palin Have to say about 1) Gingrich's ad mocking Romney's bilingual abilities, 2 Gingrich's anti-BAIN movie that turned out to be so full of falsehoods it earned a four Pinocchio rating, 3) his commercial calling Romney anti-immigrant, and 4) his ad that takes Huckabee's words out of context to blatantly call Romney dishonest? It seems to me that she is displaying a significant bias here that defies explanation.
It seems to me that the GOP leaders are genuinely concerned that Newt cannot win in November and that he will make a mess of things. Why do we have to assume they just hate the tea party? I don't see Newt as a conservative at all. He has been a Washington insider and has been on both sides of many issues.
Who cares what she thinks anyway.....And why bring up Reagan for one he is dead and gone.....All people do not think Reagan was a good man ...his Reaganomics plan put many hard working union people like truckers out of work or left them with terrible 22 cent a mile pay. Reagan was part of the problem we are facing now.
►Palin decries GOP 'cannibalism,' defends Gingrich
"I am in favor of contested primaries and healthy, pointed debate,"
"They help focus candidates and the electorate.
“I have fought in tough and heated contested primaries myself” to no avail
“But what we have seen in Florida this week is beyond the pale."
(Dang, Palin is almost a POET and don’t KNOW IT!!)
OMG, so the PA’IN really believes she is the “master” of the debates
Even though she got “nowhere” when she was pulled from her state
So she decides to jump in and voice her “not asked for” opinion today
Now that alone will spoil anyone’s campaign; they’ll definitely decay
Obama 2012
The Quitta from Wasilla has a lot in common with Newtmare Gingrich: They are both petty, snarky, narcissists whose ideas would take us back to the failed policies that got us into this mess in the first place.
Obama/Biden 2012
Thanks Sarah! if they swift boat Gingrich then he has no business being in the party and he should consider running as an independent period!
WHO is really surprised? they are 2 of a kind ... Palin & Gingrich ... BOTH love to hear themselves talk & BOTH full of HOT AIR.
Palin is an idiot – she supports a pompus old windbag who would be a disaster for this country. Newt was a problem in the 90's and is a problem today. The "Au Shucks" ex half-term govenor of Alaska needs to disapear – she is an embarasment to any rational human being.
That is right Romney! You dont need to Cannabalise Gingrich! He is perfectly capable of cannabalising himself! Plus he tastes bad.
From the article – “The difference in 2008 was that I was largely unknown to the American public, so they had no way of differentiating between the lies and the truth," Palin said.
At some point she needs to accept that millions people formed their opinion of her based on her own words and actions. The fact that the GOP did not have the good sense to give her a few million dollars after the 2008 election and tell her to never speak in public again is a clear example of their lack of leadership and strategy. She is not improving with time and the GOP would be wise to distance themselves before she does more damage.
Obama 2012 – Because being intelligent IS a good thing
You go sarah! Back the creep who said his first wife wasn't "young enough or pretty enough to be the wife of a president." I thought you were supposedly for empowering women yet you support newt - a misogynist serial adulterer!
Shame on you, sarah. You will sell out to anybody who might further your lust for power.
Just a note the other Reagan thinks Newt is dangerous and backs Obama. The question is why is everyone coming out against Newt ? Reason is not that they love Romney it's that they know Newt and being around him for years and years they know the flaw and those flaws look like the Nile river that runs forever. He's scary and this has been the view since the 90's . How do you think started the hate in Washington ..guess who...Newt. One of the reason that Washington is broken is due to Newt please please check what I say. Sara is Sara i need to get back on TV Sara , the Imay have a new book out Sara. If you've watched the debate Newt seems like he's trying to sell more books and DVD then anything else. Next debate count how many time he brings it up. Last debate 6 times one before 5..wow free ad time.
She thinks Romney is the cannibal? Lord have mercy, I was thinking Gingrich is the cannibal.
How can Newt be a Washington outsider, he has been their the last their the last 30 years.
Does Palin think people are gullible, what did Newt promise her.
Snooki Palin loves the GOBP Rove wingnut/teabagger trainwreck implosion. She wants Lizard to take them all down.
this woman is mental!
palin shouldn't be talking about other peoples record. Last time I checked she quit on the people of Alaska..
this women is so lost she doesnt kmow. I hope newt gets the Gop and pick her as VP. OBAMA2012
Palin, shut up and go away. It's been wonderful not having you in our faces every night and every day. You are a hater and most people don't give a darn what you have to say!
Who is this person and why should I care?
In the past i forced myself to vote for horrible candidates such as Bush 1, dole, Bush 2, McCain, but there is no way i will go to vote if Romney is the GOP candidate. I am so disgusted with the leadership of the GOP that i will change my registration to independent> Romney will lose against Obama, he is a target reach territory:
Bain capital, Mormon, 14% tax rate, Swiss and Cayman bank accounts, he can't put two words together, he repeats one liners that someone else prepared for him. GOP leadership wants to lose this election as well just like 2008
The threat of Sarah Palin being involved in a Gingrich administration is sufficient reason to see that Gingrich does not get the nomination.
Are we goimg to have to look and listen to this biimbo now till the election is over. She just wants Newt to win cause he said he was gioing to give her a important postion. This will cause the voters not to vote for Newt. We dont need her any where near DC.
why would anyone want an indorsement from this nut case
oh....please stop this witch....please, please. please. I am tired of her.
LOL. Sarah, you helped to bring in the era of republican cannibalism! This about the tea party versus the republican establishment. The chess game is about which party takes power in the GOP, make no mistake about it. Both sides have fielded candidates (pawns) they are willing to sacrafice in order to destroy the other side. If Newt wins the nomination, the tea party wins power. If Romney wins, the establishment wins power. Never mind that neither of these two have a chance of beating the president in Nov. It's not about this election. It's a power struggle.
Never thought it would happen, but I agree w/ the uber-bimbo on this one. The GOP is a circular firing squad this campaign cycle.
This from the woman who encourages the belief that political opponents are the enemy within. Now that it's happening to the GOP, she's suddenly appalled? She helped create this political climate of hate. Congrats, Sarah. You just might be handing Obama a second term.
C'mon Sarah! Admit 2 things: YOU ARE ENDORSING GINGRICH and YOU WOULD NEVER VOTE FOR A MORMON. You are so transparent.
What is it with Sarah and 'older men'?
Heated Primary - must be when she ran for hillbilly (mayor) of wasilla
Alinsky tactics at their worst - Sarah can you name one tactic or know who he his ?
Will someone buy this woman a new watch, apparently her's is broken because she does not know that her 15 min. were up a long time ago.
Palin is dumber than rick perry....why would anyone listen to this bimbo?
"White on Rice".
Yep, she's the authority on everything.
Sarah...who? Ask her if the world is 6,000 years old. Please! And ask her if cannibalizing a fellow GOP is worse than her cannibalizing of so many of her fellow Americans.
Oh good grief! Her? AGAIN?
Wow. you're really digging for a story here, huh? Who cares what this used-up twit thinks?
She, like her "sista" Jan Brewer are just looking to line their own pockets with the money they can make from the haters by spreading hate.
The bimbo speaks. She canibalized her supporters when she took their money and did not run.
Lies about her in 2008? She opened her mouth and that was all we needed to know the truth about her. As McCain's own staff said, "she knows nothing". And it is still true! Bye bye now hon.
Personally, I am all for letting the Republicans eat each other.
Pot Kettle Black
You Betcha
He said "White on Rice"
funny, how did that make it past the moderator.
Hey Sarah go put your head in the sand and take newt with you, Romney will be are next president. Sarah don't have the guts to endorse anyone, She wants to play games with people!! She needs to go back to Alaska because the republican party can do without her
The only reson Palin is against Romney is his Mormon faith. He could be ultra-conservative but that Mormon faith is a deal breaker for these fringe Christian nutters.
If Sarah Palin wants to end cannibalism in the GOP she ought to shut her mouth about the most beloved and successful Governor in our country, Chris Christie, who has balanced a budget, cut taxes for ALL citizens and whats more important, he never delivered some pathetic and lame excuse about leaving office. he stays. He keeps his word. All Palin can do is spew stupidity from the sidelines. She invalidated her opinion the minute things got too tough for Ms. Precious and she booked it ou tof office to go make a buck and stifle the country more than she has already. She is the one who should man up and not get her panties in a bundle (if a man ever spoke that way of Palin, she'd be wailing about discrimination, all the while playing the mainstream media like a fiddle. She is on the worst Americans to have ever lived.
This woman would know cannibalisim,she would eat her young.What people are looking at here is the single defining factor of why the republicans will not win this year and why their party is a far right hot mess of crazy christians,and gun toting doomsday prophets,who love ripping into each other and making it esay for the dems to win based on logic and really no one being as insane as this party.Thankyou sarah for dumbing down politics and thank you johhny boy for picking her as VP.I think johnny boy works for the dems.
So when was Palin in "some tough and heated contested" (more mangled English) primaries? These people live in a fantasy world. I also like the bit about how she is not endorsing any particular candidate. Gee, I sure wonder who she wants to win.
whaaaa. look at me! look at me! whaaaaaaaaaaa! I want attention! I want money!
Like many groups Mormons lie cheat & steal, they are merely more tactical about it and more evasive too.
Why does this ultra annoying, ultra right wing bigot keep running her mouth? No one really cares who she endorses. I personally hope all of the Tea Party members listen to her and do vote for Newt in the primary. That way he'll get the nod and have to face Obama in the debates. I am anxiously awaiting Obama giving the good old Pillsbury Dough Boy a good "shellaking"!!
the moon landing never happened. google this "moon landing hoax" make your own decision.
Sorry Sarah!! Looks like your "vision" for getting a foot into the White House, serving as VP, just isn't in the cards!!! Perhaps you can talk Newt into having his own reality show!! Then the two of you can count your millions and invest them in Freddy and Fanny, by way of a "blind trust"!! Does this sound familiar???????????
Many in the GOP Party would like to see Sarah join Newt and the Third Lady at his Moon Base.
Some have suggested that Mitt promise Sarah and Newt Diplomatic roles if Newt withdraws from the race and Sarah muzzles herself. The dominatnt suggestion is first Ambassadors of the Lunar Colony
For the second time Sarah has picked the wrong dead horse in the race
She should endorse Newt and that would be the end of him. "What do you think about Bush doctrine?", Sarah's reply:"In what respect, Charlie? You mean his world view?"
I kept hoping for months that this moron would just go away, maybe to some deserted island where no one would ever hear from her again. I thought my dreams had come true until Miss "Dumber than a box of rocks" opens her mouth again for some attention.
Go away Sarah, just go away.
I actually feel sorry for the Republicans. This poor pathetic little thing just won't go away. Kind of like stink on shet.
She is just wetting her pants over the fact that old Newt boy said that if he is elected she will have a seat at his table – - too bad she doesn't realize the old Newt will do anything say anthing to be President. After he wins – she will ring him up for her seat at his table and she will find out that it is at his next fundraiser and it will cost her $ 5,000!
"What we saw with this ridiculous opposition dump on Newt was nothing short of Stalin-esque re-writing of history."
It's a safe bet that Palin doesn't have a clue about history and just drops impressive sounding phrases and words into her speech so that her equally clueless fans might actually mistake her for an intellectual.
I have a feeling, John McCain while out currently stumping for Williard Romney is a tab bit embarrassed by Mrs. Sarah Stupid as you know what Palin out or on fox news and facebook pleading the case for Mr. Gingrich....
So I have but one question for Mr. John McCain, given the current Ambigous situation of your support for Williard Romney, and Sarah Palins support of Newton Gingrich.......How's the vetting of Sarah Palin thingy working out for YA..?
Sarah,
Since you are so good at quitting, please quit interjecting yourself into our lives?
Thank you very much!
Sincerely,
The American People
I truly believe this is about Sarah wanting something from Gingrich, like a ticket to Washington without being elected.
I believe her comments are right on. Amazing how little grit and how quick to judgment these folks who buy into the MSM smears are. I suppose it's because it supports their political world view. They are not likely to vote for any republican anyway. Let them stay in Rev. Wright's church of thought.
The time for the candidates to criticize each other is over. They should, by now, distinguish themselves from one another by focusing on Obama's agenda and how they each would counter it and repair the economy. Voters can interpret the differences in the candidates approaches and decide which of the candidates is best suited for the job.
Gingrich discredited himself long before he wound up in the 2012 primaries.
Pretty interesting that she endorses him right after he says she might have a place in his administration!
It was Gingrich, who in 2008, when asked the question about Palin being VP, said she needs to study among other things to be a viable politician, looks like she hasn't taken his advice. Palin for once is spot on because cannibalism is a subject she knows well having done the exact same thing in McCain's attempt to the WH and anyone she backs she will create the same for them.
Just when you thought stupid was gone.......ugh
Great! Sarah is one of my the most astute and principled politicians in this country. True, true,true.
His world view Charlie???
And why might Mrs. Palin still be relevant?
Yeah, the vicious tactic of showing the public the simple facts. Palin and Gingrich are both demagogues. They love to rant, hate to think, and can't stand being called out on their lies and distortions. No wonder she likes him!
This is why you shouldn't drink and post to Facebook. Nobody has to cannibalize Gingrich – he does that every time he opens his mouth, just like Sarah Palin does. A U.S. colony on the moon? Really Sarah? Gingrich left congress with as much disdain as Palin cut short her term as Alaska's governor. Perhaps that's why she likes him and is lobbying so desperately to be on his ticket. Sorry Sarah, it isn't going to happen for him or you.
Just stay out of it Sarah. You bet on the wrong horse.
Palin, the master of getting cheers from the Jerry Springer crowd, used the phrase "beyond the pale"? She has either been taking speech lessons or wintering in Alaska.
So desperate to stay in the media......as desperate and as amoral as gingrich.........and, yes...........romney.
Gingrich has promised her a position in his government. She has always had dreams of being in the White House in some capacity. This was her last chance. She isn't relevant to the debate now and never was. She Who Should Not Be Named, has become an annoying footnote in history and she can't stand it.
If we vote Romney in, then we will not have to worry about Palin and hubby again. Its worth it.
"swift boat Gingrich" ??? Look, it's no one's fault but his own that Newtmare Gingrich's past is filled with lying, adultery, pettiness and disgrace. It's all public record – and as a historian, he (and you) should be able to appreciate the need to honestly look at the past, warts and all.
And she is suddenly suprised that the animals in the Republican Party would eat their own? Republicans would fry up grandma and their own kids if there was a buck in it for them.
Sarah Palin backing Newt now that's rich.....she is unelectable by herself...or doesn't have the guts to run for the job herself....and she goes after Mitt Romney and the Republicans that have come out against him. She resigned as gov of Alaska because they were coming after her.....the they in that case were the other republicans in the state legislator....for ethics violations....she does have something in common with the Newt...no morals or ethics..........and she helping Obama get reelected.........by her actions way to go Sarah!
Some of these ... so called leaders ... of the GOP must be consulting a special thesaurus to find the most explosive ...demoagogic ....irresponsible ...words to use in politics.
The republican party is awash in cheap, self-serving hypocrisy and ripping itself apart. What could make it worse?
You guessed it! Sarah "The Circus Clown" Palin! Saying exactly the wrong things, encouraging exactly the wrong candidate. Wonderful! Sarah, America needs you! Keep it up.
Palin-Gingrich, Third Party Ticket. Yes, I can dig it.
Palin? Didn't she lose something a while back? Can't quite remember!
As a democrate I whole heartely agree with Sarah Palin – Newt Gingrich should be the GOP nominee.
First off, who cares what Palin says. She couldn't even finish her stint as governor. Secondly, it is the nature of the beast that candidates go after one another. Where has she been living? Gingrich is great at hitting below the belt, so what is she talking about?
"What we saw with this ridiculous opposition dump on Newt was nothing short of Stalin-esque re-writing of history."
Wonder who conjured up this zinger for the ditz?
Let's offer up Sarah to the cannibals and see if they would eat her. I think it might leave a bad taste in their mouth.
Republicans have self-destructed and we have been seeing their hate of the People for the past 3 years. They are all going to beaten in landslides around the nation. Instead of tortruring us with their constant lies and everchanging positions, – just concede to Obama so real work for the People can continue by President Obama. Republicans – donate all your Citizens United corporate corrupt money back to our education system you have destroyed and shut up and go away. We could use a break from your hate, negativity, and lies for a change.
We don't want anything to do with the Red Neck right. Why would we want to go back to the 2001 – 2008 era? An era of disaster for the USA.
This woman still doesn't realize we don't give a hoot about what she says or thinks-fact!
Wasn't her 15 minutes up 3 years ago?
Seriously, she is clueless and I guess in favor of more big government progressives running the country. Newt has no values, aside from Newt.
Is there anything more sure to end a Presidential bid than a Palin endorsement???
Ms. Palin is correct that Republicans are fighting with each other. However, Ms. Palin participated in the war of words beginning January 20, 2009. She made so many remarks during the Presidential election and then continue to make her name know to the TEA Party. She traveled across America for this group. Their accusations and rhetoric were and are highly divisive. These candidates are just pushing the same agenda and pointing fingers in order to prove they are conservatives. None of them qualify for the party of Lincoln.
Palin is rooting for Gingrich and defending him so much because he has essentially guaranteed her a position should he be president. Not at all shady, real shake up to the establishment.
Amusing to see the Repubs eating their own. Not so amusing to watch Palin's pathetic attempts to remain relevant.
She just doesn't like Romney because she's a fundamental Christian who doesn't believe LDS members are Christians.
Palin is smarter than most. How many people have defeated the republican establishment (in Alaska) and then defeated Exxon (oil giant) by forcing them to share profits with alaskan citizens. Most of the hate on this website is based on ideology and not an unbiased look at what Palin has actually done.
Who cares what she has to say?
It is to bad that Newt turned to populist anti-capitalist rhetoric in order to try and appeal to social conservatives that may be wary of "walls street types". Newt and the super PACs that support him have confused the issue over what is good and bad capitalism. They have made some normal market operations always bad capitalism, even if they are a product of free market activities.
http://www.examiner.com/bloomington-economic-policy-in-springfield/good-capitalism-vs-bad-capitalism
I'm SURE that McCain regrets having picked Palin as his VP running mate. Anybody who thinks that her opinion is of any consequence needs to read about her in Game Change. I wish she would just GO AWAY!
like ignoring rape cases that sat on her desk because her daddy's tallywakcer jumped in a hole it wasn't suppose to? or how the jr did the same thing in hs as her daughter did – apple doesn't fall far from the tree and the Palins crucify those they cannot forget.
Who wants to listing to her. She does not say anything and when she does, it's empty
To all you Palin haters out there.....this 'nanook' would gladly give you a lift on my polar bear back for a swim across the Bering ...and drop you off in Russia
Who is Sarah Palin to talk about ANYONE else's record?! Her own speaks volumes, and none of it good – just ask the citizens of Alaska...
Cannibalism?
wow...
Guess that tells us why nobody has seen Huntsman in a couple of weeks.
Yes Mrs. Palin, we must be careful not to put Republican candidates out on the national stage again without first engaging in a thorough vetting process.
Has been so peaceful without Palin. Wonder if she can still see Russia from her house. Please lady your 15 minutes were up long ago. Maybe you can co host a daytime show on Oprah's network. Political Wannabees and other losers
Who is this person again?
Why anyone is still listening to this person is beyond me. She has Sh!@ for brains. She needs to be thinking of looney colony not lunar colony.
As usual the Queen of Crosshairs has nothing of value to contribute, just more vain attempts at trying to get in the spotlight. She is vile and earns all of the mocking and criticism she receives.
I used to like John McCain. But then he brought this shrieking hillbilly to the forefront. GO AWAY Sarah, everyone knows your shtick now. You are not cute no more, just OLD.
I utterly disagree with this woman in almost every stance she takes. Yet in this case, she makes a bit of sense; must be opposite day.
Palin reminds us that the only thing missing from the traveling circus that is the Republican primaries is her own brand of nonsense.
Newt/Palin 2012. She quit in the middle of her term as Governor; he quit in the middle of his term as Speaker of the House. Both quit when the heat was tuned up and they were the subject of ethics investigations.
Americans don't vote for quitters.
The Village Idiot is back...
It's natural that Palin endorses Gingrich. They are similarly out of touch and narcicistic, and in both cases their main skill is having a big mouth and playing loose with facts. Anyone with any intelligence will run away screaming at the mere thought of either of these people gaining power as leaders.
hmmm funny how the "idiot" decries the career politicians and the "Washington" establishment during her brief political history but now backs the most established of the career politicians? talk about hypocracy...
Why is it that the republicans allways bring up reagan? he was a sorry president. the crap that nixon started reagan, bush1 and bush w. KEPT GOING TIL THEY HAVE NEARLY DESTROYED AMERICA. as for palin why call her governer she was only a half governer. reagan and bush 1 made a deal with iran to hold our hostages that were being held there until reagan could be sworn in office so he could take credit for their release. nixon, reagan. bush senior bush w. carl rove, dick cheney. donald rumsfield, and alberto gonzalez should all be rotting in prision for what they have done to this country.
To everyone here who badmouths this woefully under-qualified, ridiculous political pundit from Alaska, every time you so much as click on an article about her, you're telling CNN that you are interested in what she has to say.
If we really want to get her out of the national spotlight we need to stop clicking; ignore her and she will go away. Alas, just by being here, I am as much a part of the problem as any of you.
When and IF Newt wins..... will Calista be the "First Mistress?"
I'm willing to bet Sarah Palin doesn't know anything about Saul Alinsky. It's just another buzzword. She's such a maverick.
When, oh when, is this woman ever going to go away? Just when a person thinks, "Gee, Palin hasn't been in the news lately...what a relief!", then suddenly she says something stupid that the media THINKS is newsworthy.
Somebody please tell Sarah Quayle to shutup and go away.
Poor dumb Sarah doesn't realize that the vast majority of decent Americans enjoy watching the Republicans devour one another. They are simply helping to ensure President Obama's reelection come November. Let's hope a grizzly eventually devours Sarah too.
the woman just ought to start hooking again
Palin is right, if anyone has discredited anyone its Gingrich discrediting himself as he just has to many problems especially when it concerns ethics or a lack there of or how do you explain a man who swears to love and honor his wife and then cheats on her and divorces her later and not just once but multiple times.
And thats setting aside his ethical violations while he was in office which he had to pay a hefty fine for.
Not to say Romney is much better though but atleast hes stayed faithful (that we know of because after all most of us though Edwards was faithful to and we were disappointed to learn otherwise) to his wife and atleast Romney seems willing to change his mind on things when he is presented with data,
"The difference in 2008 was that I was largely unknown to the American public, so they had no way of differentiating between the lies and the truth," Palin said.
--
Ha, ha – lol – ROFLMAO! – ooohhh. my sides, wiping tears of laughter from my eyes. I guess we all must be so thankful to have had Palin become known to human kind so that she could show us the way between the lies and the truth. Do you see why this lady is crazy. On one hand she thinks government should stay out of peoples lives, yet out of the other side of her mouth she things she is so blessed to involve herself (a political figure in government) in our personal lives to "enlighten" us on the nature of truth and reality. Palin's mind is filled with a fantasy as far a distortion from reality and truth. We might as well believe in the notion that hobbits, elves, and wizards roam the forests in northern Canada as the eye of Mordor stares through the dark and dangerous Tar Sands, through the pristine forests, destroying coastlines, and onto the promised land of ethical oil in China nonetheless.
It it is not surprising that Sarah Palin (the original, authentic Antiobama) feels a kinship, with Newt Gingrich. They (along with the Tea Party) have both been reviled and betrayed, by the invertebrate GOP Establishment. If it is necessary to remove Barack Obama from office, we can hold our noses and vote for Romney. What the sleazy, perfidious conduct of the Brahmin Republicans has cogently demonstrated, during this primary campaign, is that the nation's future lies with neither the Democrat nor the Republican Party. The future lies with independent conservatives.
I know! Putting negative ads on TV is soooooooo Stalin! You tell 'em Sarah! I'm so happy that the queen of re-writing history is back to entertain us!
No, Rick. The oil profit shares to Alaska citizens was in place before Palin's stint as governor, which (as you recall) she ducked out on early.
Each time Mrs. Palin speaks, intelligent women cringe! I am at a loss for those the Republican party supports and showcases as their candidates. Palin and Bachmann who both lack any indication of intelligence. Newt Gingrich, the poster-boy for the party of "family values" who seems to have few, if any, values himself. Rick Santorum who appears to be runing for Pope. Rick Perry another not too smart Texas governor in the mode of George Bush. I don't understand – what has happened to the once-proud Republican party? This decline happened before The Tea Party carzies so they can not be blamed. it is indeed a mystery.
Sarah, dear, give it up. You had your chance in politics and blew it. So, stick to ya shooten and ya fishin and stay away from politics. It's too big for you.
An endorsement by Palin for Newt could be the best thing that ever happened to Romney.
I think what the majority of Americans would like to see now is a derate managing our Country. Most of the noise coming from the Republican side is from the far right and the big noise on the left is the Demorcrats. Newt is on that far right and won't have a chance of beating Obama.
The fact this woman's thoughts are even a consideration shows the level to which the Republicans have fallen.
I wonder if it matters to Palin or the world who I would endorse for the GOP nomination.
Todd endorses someone....who cares. Sarah endorses someone... pity that person and again...who cares.
Oops....what most I think Americans want is a "Moderate".
Dear Sarah-OTHER THAN YOUR HAIR AND GLASSES-THERE ISN'T MUCH MORE WORTH TO YOU....REALLY!!! Might want to consider a career change.
Dear Rick Dove-"...smarter than most..."? really-your vision is truly jaded. Although I hope the best for each person-Ms. Palin is the worst....and sadly...somewhat of a joke...because she espouses to be more than she really is.
This is just another act in the GOP crash and burn circus.
If Newt were elected, Palin would be called to serve as head of Dept of Inferior.
I'm willing to bet my house that if asked to answer in detail who Aliinsky was and did, Palin would give us another SNL comedy sketch for the ages. She is clueless in all matters of political concern for the country.
"How many people have defeated the republican establishment (in Alaska) and then defeated Exxon (oil giant) by forcing them to share profits with alaskan citizens."
Considering the oil revenue sharing was established in 1976 – this pertains to Palin, how?
Didn't read the article and I was going to write "who gives a crap what Spalin says but others have already written that. She's trying to maintain her money tree. Sarah, time to get a real job. Soon you will be like Walter Mondale or James Stockdale. Relevant only because someone else made you relevant.
I love her hair !
At least her son volunteered for military service.
Sarah who?
oh! poor Gingrich. Sarah endorsing him. Here goes his any remaining claim on sanity!
Did anyone hear that a congressional hearing is taking place because Sarah Palin gave away 500 million dollars that was not the property of the State of Alaska? Or that her lap dog Sean Parnell had a check cut for England to pick up in Canada by the new royal couple? Or that she is under investigations for tampering with evidence? or murder of the Commish of Revenue? or that she is being wire-tapped by the government to trace calls and activites? nothing like a federal protologist to give her a tast of her own medicine. Check out MudFlats.com for the TRUTHS about her!
Send Sarah Palin to the moon!
Sarah... stfu....
Who is Sarah Palin? She is obviously very stupid, but why does anyone pay attention to her?
Palin will not get in front of a microphone and take questions about her rant. Does anyone think she ever read anything that Saul Alinsky wrote or said? "Stalinesque?" Hah! For someone so poorly read Alaska's favorite half-term governor has to plagarize the speeches of others in order to name drop. Why doesn't she go ahead and join the Kardashians. Fame, name, and no substance...
"I can see Repug cannibals from my house"! So says the the leader of the voting dimwits. You betcha!!!
She is as insane as he is..what a pair..she probably thinks he will name her VP...
If only someone who could get close enough would throw a bucket of water on her. OOOH, Sorry – wouldn't work – she probably can't pronounce "melting."
So lets see, Palin does not like the attacks on Gingrich....well lets see if he was not a serial liar and cheater....a disgraced speaker of the house....in the pocket of Fannie Mae as a "historian.." .....a dead beat dad whose church had to take up a collection to take care of his first wife and kids because he FAILED to be a man.....let see Sarah, maybe those attacks and what you call attempts to discredit Newt would not be happening. He is not a man of integrity. His attempt to run as a values and evangelical candidate is a joke..... To support him only shows a lack of intelligence. A Gingrich presidency would be a disaster and would make us a joke in the eyes of the world for voting in a lying clown like him.
Hey GOP cannibals, doesn't $arah look DELICIOUS????
Why does anyone continue to take this woman seriously?
"Rick Dove" – I have no hate for Sarah Palin, or anyone else. I merely see Ms. Palin as an opportunistic parasite who would (and has) sold her family for attention and money. Further, I see her as a functionally-illiterate, socio and geographical illiterate. Finally, I see her as woefully functionally illiterate. She could not string 2 coherent sentences together if someone held a gun to her head.
This is not hatred – it is objective observation and rational thought.
Sarah Palin is a carboard box. she has nothing to offer and nothing to gain from her words. In Washington DC there are investigations going on that are looking into the State of Alaska and the State of Washington and the State of Arizona. It would seem that Sarah and her personnel violated federal laws and the crimes will be announced. In the meantime I would encourage those effected by her and her crimes to report it to the Office of Civil Rights in Washington DC. I keep hearing that there are other matters of crimes that Sarah Palin and Sean Parnell have committed but we here in Washington DC need your help. Check out the White House website and scroll down to Office of Civil Rights and make an online report so we can investigate your complaints. Thank you. Have a nice Day!
If Newt was so important in the overall scheme of the Reagan Presidency why to most former insiders of that administration say he was totally inconsequential in the scheme of the Presidency. Reagan expressed dislike for the man, as did just about everyone else who knew and worked with him.
What's that on Palins bottom lip? Has she been hanging out with the
basketball player again?
Palin crucifies those she cannot forget...and paybacks are coming for her and her Alaskan buddies...ask the FEDS.
It's hilarious to hear Palin question anyone else's "credentials". She's famous for being infamously ignorant.
Now if she'd just fade into history, and the media would stop paying attention to her ... life would improve for the rest of us.
I think having Palin endorse Newt is just another sleezy tactic being used by Mitt to tear down Newt.
Spending your leisure time getting glamor shots taken, huh, Sarah? Too bad. It won't help you.
Just looking at Palin's eyes is a classic example of "the lights are on but nobody's home".
Palin the pickle-brained moron speaks again and THAT'S what she says. HOw can anyone this stupid ever have gotten elected to any type of post?
Sarah who?
Dear Sarah, We don't care what you say. You have nothing to say but hate towards anyone that isn't kissing your big behind. You are a failure at everything except opening your mouth to spew your hate. I am go glad you are for someone who cheated on two of his wives. Get real Sarah!
AHH. The Palin haters are all whipped up again. It's funny how you hang on her every word and can't wait to post how much you hate her. Oh, I forgot SHE is the hater not you.
I thought after the Michigan basketball player "one-on-one" that we were rid of her for awhile.
Republicans eating their own? Pass the Ketchup, please.
Gingrich is a Washington insider. Palin, Perry & Cain are hoping to get a job from him. I have participated in Tea Party events and I have resented Palin ever since she tried to latch onto the movement. She is self-serving.....as is Gingrich.
This woman appears normal but it is evident she is retarded.
Well that settles it Newt is out when Sarah I will sue for you using my name picks a guy we all know he is the one to stay away from. Way to go Sarah you sunk his campaign lol!
It was nice of her to defend Newt, but I think he can take care of himself. All any of them have to do is be honest and stop ripping on each other and others. Mitt handled himself in the debate against Newt. Newt didn't know what to do because Mitt changed his game plan. Not that I would vote for either one, but that is the way I saw it.
i thought republicans always ate their young,, newt's wife looks really scary
She claims that history is being re-written. What does she know about history? What does she know about anything? Of course she's going to support the whackiest of the bunch. She's a wacko herself.
The Repub's are implodeing and its going to go clear to the convention floor befor a Pres canidate is chosen.
Does anyone remember the Repub convention of 1968 when we had fist fights in the main hal land roits in the streets?
And then we got - Nixon.
can't imagine why any serious candidate would want her endorsement. She was a joke in 2008 who has been reduced to a mere punchline today, like the old smith barney commercial "when Sarah speaks, nobody listens" ...
Just curious if the reagan legacy she screams about is the one that denied the existence of AIDS and all relevant funding? Is it the same reagan legacy that screamed for federal funding of medical research when ronnie's brain was a bowl of mush? Is it the same legacy that caused uncontrolled greed on Wall Street and funneled military supplies to the middle east?
Newt is the most dangerous of the dangerous. None of the candidates have any ethical values. Most of all, Palin is nothing but a continuous quitter. She can't even get a big enough "set" to enter the primaries. She and her opinions are irrelevant.
Oh Good Heavens she's back thinking her opinion counts again.
Amusing. This website is infatuated and obsessed with Palin. She could be an administrative assistant in East Bumfuq, R.I. and she'd still get covered here. Probably because it brings out the best in everyone.
Perhaps the candidates' behavior is indicative of their lack of character, a common problem among politicians. Vote for Ron Paul, a man of integrity.
That settles it. If Sarah Palin is for GinGrinch, I am even more against him. This woman is an idiot and should not make decisions for America.
Sarah, please be quite. your intelligence is showing...............................
Cannibalism? Well, she should know a lot about that. An expert, really.
It's called the free market Palin. The free market means you can do anything to anyone because if you're powerful enough to do so you've "earned it."
I still just want to sleep with Sarah....But I don't want her to speak.
Here comes Snowmobile Snookie again.
testing to see if all my comments are moderated or just the last one that contained 0 offensive language.
Bet she'd eat Newt's wienie. Then Ricky Boy can say it's irrelevent to the Election. Why does the media waste our time with this never-was, has-been?
Let me see if I can get this right. Sarah served two years (not two terms) as Governor of Alaska, then was nominated as VP running mate for John McCain. She didn't run in any primaries. Then when she lost her VP bid she resigned as governor so she could hide from the press and write a book. Then she got a job at FOX News, which has hired more losers than Texas Prison system has convicts. Now the TeaBaggers hang on her every word and recommendations. She, without saying so, endorses Gingrich. Then you get someone like Rick Dove commenting "how smart she is". Let me ask this question: Is the Republicanj party that BAD OFF they have loser giving advice? Geeze pretty pathetic if you as me.
was sarah smoking cannibis when she tossed the cannablism comment, or did she powder her nose again
Mrs Sara Palin is a very respect lady. God knows she is ok! Newt Gingrich will do more for this Country than any of the others will. He is forgiven, I hope he gets elected. Praise God!!
I think she should stay in Alaska, keep an eye out if Russian planes try to enter the US territory.
Mrs Sara Palin is a very respectful lady. God knows she is ok! Newt Gingrich will do more for this Country than any of the others will. He is forgiven, I hope he gets elected. Praise God!!
Palin and Newt – aka : "Dum and Dummer". Just can't figure out which one is which.
Sarah Palin should organize a conservative electoral boycott of the GOP if Mitt Romney lies his way to the nomination. Romney has a long history of badmouthing conservatives and voting against them. In 1994 while he was running for the U.S. Senate, Romney made snide remarks about conservatives in Washington, D.C., and especially about then conservative icon U.S. Sen. Jesse Helms of North Carolina. Romney also admitted voting for Jimmy Carter and Walter Mondale and against Ronald Reagan in the 1980s. Now he has hired notoriously anticonservative Republican campaign professionals like his spokeswoman Andrea Saul, who all worked for the disgraced anticonservative former Florida Gov. Charlie Crist, who like Romney is a political soulmate of Barack Obama. RINOs like Romney think that they can take conservatives for granted and even abuse them verbally because they have no where else to go. They are so mistaken. Not only will conservatives not donate money to the RNC, NRSC and NRCC and volunteer their time for establishment Republicans, they also won't vote for Romney or the RINO's in November. Conservatives know that if not in 2012 then for sure in 2016 one of them will become president and they are not going to let Phony Romney or the RINOs steal the election.
This is good. A Sarah Palin endorsement is a kiss of death everytime. Thank you Sarah! Gingrich is a self serving manipulator who believes his own lies. He's a dangerous, dangerous man.
I'm surprised Todd's endorsement didn't have more of an impact. Highly regarded in intellectual circles. (eeehhhh......)
I see nailing Pailin has come out of her Fox hole to make some Remarkable comment.Pailin supporters are agast that the high priestess has not tried to win the golden grail.But running in second for the silver tongue award,closing in fast on BS artist Newty fruitty Grinch.Maybe she can tell us what her chrystal ball will predict,a landslide victory for the darkskinned guy in a suit,yes it's Barack Obama crusader of the 99%ers.To bad Repubs ,take your toys and go home,playtimes over,don't cry,you can come back in 4 years,we won't hold it against ya....
Overheard in Obama's bedroom, just before he goes to bed...
Oh Lord, please let it be a Newt/Palin ticket!
Wow !! This is coming from a "Quitter" because she knew she could make millions from doing books and speeches !! Rather than finishing her term as Governor. It's a good thing she doesn't work for me, She wouldn't last a week. And I've been in business for the last 7 years. No wonder the republicans are self destructing ! It's unfathomable to hear what they are actually saying about each other, especially for a Job that pays 400K a yr. But I guess it's all the perks that come w/ it.

Lets have Gingrich and PALIN! She'll have time to finish her high school deficiency courses in U.S. history and civics before taking office.
I am convinced the GOP is purposely trying to lose the election for POTUS – the clown show to date supports that. Perhaps they are focused on retaining Congressional seats. It may be the GOP is afraid to take on the mess President Obama inherited. BTW – who cares what Palin foams from her mouth – and Todd is a bigger joke.
What papers has she read Rick. And she must have a speech writer now, because her vocabulary did not know the word cannabalism last year. McCain will be forever known as the person who made this fruitcake rich.
Palin is irrelevant.
Newt is a self-confessed windbag, a serial adulterer, and the man who created the hyperpartisanship of the 1990s, which is the direct precursor to the dysfunctional Washington and Congress we know today. And, now, Sarah talks about him as a wonderful man and candidate. I don't think so. If he has sought redemption for his past sins, let him do so from those he hurt - both of his previous wives. That's where forgiveness comes from, not from his own imaagination.
@Justinatl -You Are Spot On !! Don't forget when he fired the air traffic controllers – and the W.T.O. (that's when all the factories started folding & moving overseas) ( and it went like dominoes) – why do you think I'm down here Justin ? I'm not in love with the mosquitos & fire ants all year long, but the positives outweigh the negatives.

"The difference in 2008 was that I was largely unknown to the American public, so they had no way of differentiating between the lies and the truth," Palin said. "All of it came at them at once as 'facts' about me. But Newt Gingrich is known to us – both the good and the bad."
This is bigger than the GOP candidates. Once again, this is all about Palin.

It will be Romney..and when it is, the GOP will officially rebuke their 'christianity'...it's a religous things folks, if you believe or not. Republicans have done the opposite of what the Bible teaches about living wages, treatment of the poor, lending, love of wealth. Republican leadership did an exceptional job of pointing Obama out as the Antichrist..but it never materialized did it..ever wonder why? The Bible talks about them being misled, and it's all about to come to fruition. The Bible referred to the beast as multiheaded, the true Antichrist will be an empty mouthpiece that represents the true evil.
15, 20 30min...is this woman still talking?????
Palin kept the Republicans out of the White House in the 2008 election. She must be going for a repeat.
She is such a pathetic loser. Nobody should be taking this twit seriously.
Cannibalism? Come on...she'd eat her children if she could make a buck!
As a Republican, I will never be able to forgive John McCain for Sarah Palin. Please, just go away.
She is a legend in her own mind. If she knows what "legend" means..... or "mind."
Palin abandoned her State while she was suppost to finish being thier Govener. She went for the almighty dollar, sold out for a fast buck during her 15 minutes of fame. Times up. Go hunt a moose.
I wouldnt vote for Sarah Palin for dog catcher. I do see that she is studying hard to learn 1 new word a day...wow, cannabilism....
The minute I met the gal from Alaska I knew she would never be anything to worry about in national politics. McCain struck up the wrong friendship and he was so sure that everyone would love the gal from way out west somewhere.
Maybe in 2020 we will be looking for you again, sorry but for now just keep quiet and let the GOP drown themselves.
Hypocritical Sarah is DESPERATELY SEEKING THE VP SLOT and this is her way of begging.
The Tactics she condemns are the same tactics she has used over and over – she's very Hypocritical.
Cannibalism? Please, Ms. Palin. Have no fear. Nobody wants to bite you.
II never thought I would enjoy hearing from this challenged person again, but I am LMFAO!
Somehow I doubt Sarah Palin is a figure the GOP should be listening to if they want to win in the general election.
Newt and Palin for 2012 will be a great combo!!!!
Somebody has to mention Obama. Did I mention that the last Republican ticket, McCain-Palin, is now totally divided on whom to support in 2012? McCain loathes Gingrich, as who does not? Well, Palin does not! Palin, well, all I see she has in common with Gingrich is delusions of grandeur and a bad case of needing to get revenge.
After Super Tuesday, the serial adulterer named Newt and the accused philanderer named Herman are planning to join the team of President Obama.
She doesn't really know much of what is going on in the race. I say that Gingrich and Romney should rip each other apart. Let all the cats out of the bag and see what is left at the end of the day.
I followed mostly all of 2008 presidential campaign and was in awe at the way this women’s mouth spurred hatred and division. As hard as Obama was trying to unite this country, she was causing division. I watched her go into certain towns stating, “This is the real America” and making statements like “Who is this Obama who pals around with terrorist”. McCain soon got on board with her and it wasn’t until very close to the end of the campaign that they stopped. They finally stopped when a woman in one of McCain’s audiences stated” Obamas a terrorist”. McCain went over to her and said something like “No, no he’s not a terrorist”; “he’s a good man”. I believe McCain finally did this because he realized how much they were causing people to hate Obama to the point of causing them to threaten him.
This country hasn’t been the same since. Thanks for all your help Ms. Palin. The love just continues to pour out of you. The GOP is just giving each other some of your own medicine.
Palin is Gingrich's attack dog on FOX yet she avoids "endorsing" him. If I were advising the Romney camp, once he's the nominee I'd tell her to "go away and don't endorse our candidate. We don't need you or want you". She's a whack job and why anyone listens to her is beyond me.
lets be clear... palin is shaking in her panties because she wanted to run in 2016... by 2016 obama would have so destroyed the country that any republican could win (the only time someone as mentally delayed as sarah would have a shot!) she never expected romney to do as well as he is and she knows that romney will win in 2012 if he is the nominee... this dingbat is trying to sabotage all republicans this year to further her own poltical ambitions... she is a fraud and a loser... and really needs to start focusing on her children so that maybe she wont end up with anymore grandchildren out of wedlock!
Palin just wants to stay relevant. She wants to make $$ and stay in the news as long as she can. After this election, she will be pretty much history. She has proven to be a very shallow, ignorant, divisive figure. Watch Fox News dump her after the election.
