Palin to endorse 2012 choice on Greta tuesday [MOD NOTE: Speculation]

[Toureg89]

If she endorses Newt, it's the end of her credibility. For god's sake, the man voted to establish the department of education!I think there's a chance she'll endorse Ron, if not it's one of three people:1) Bachmann2) Perry3) Santorum

Palin has credibility...that's the first i've heard her having any...

 

[fisharmor]

I bet it's Perry.

"Now Sarah, considering Perry's debate performances, why would you endorse him?"
"Ya know, when it was me up there on stage forgetting what stolen lines my handlers told me to say, it hurt, you betcha, and I want to ask America to give him the second chance that I didn't deser... get. Was that right?"

Lots of confident people on this thread.

If she doesn't endorse Ron, she'll officially stop being my pin-up-girl in chief.

It could happen. Look how bad the GOP field is.

 

[kahless]

She did not have a good relationship with Bachmann so I doubt it would be her. Since FNC, the establishment and Beck were gushing all over Rick Perry and Palin up until this year I always thought Palin and Beck would endorse Perry.

With all the Neocons gushing all over Cain right now I started to have my doubts but considering he is very weak on foreign policy I could not imagine the Neocons endorsing him. So my odds are on her endorsing Perry and if not Perry, Ron Paul.

True , but the only time they appear really bad is when Iran is brought up , rest of the time , they all look better than Oboma .

I would be SHOCKED if she endorsed our guy. I'm guessing that since she endorsed Perry before, and that since he's been sinking in the polls, maybe Perry's people spoke to her and made some promises.

My bet is on Perry. After Newt sinks in 2 to 3 weeks, Perry will be resuscitated and Palin will look like a genius. After the first couple of primaries the race will come down to Romney, Perry, Paul.

Yep, the reason you're correct is you would have to go back a few weeks ago. Remember, everything that is done is ALWAYS telegraphed weeks before it happens. When you understand the game, nothing should come to surprise.

Here is what was telegraphed. Months ago Palin was having cordial visits with Trump. Trump has stated in a number of interviews, that he and Palin remain in contact periodically. A few weeks back, Trump announced he will make his endorsement after the Iowa Caucus. Trump also stated weeks ago in interviews that of the candidates that have visited him, there was one that he felt the most confident with. Process of elimination says Gingrich never visited Trump. Romney never visited Trump. Paul has not visited Trump.

I said many months ago that Trump would be a key player in these elections. So here we are with the announcement that Palin is going to side with a candidate. process of elimination, the only rational guess would be Perry getting a support bump from Palin to boost him in Iowa and then Trump coming in after the Iowa Caucus to give him the ultimate bump announcing his endorsement. It makes Palin look like a genius because now she has Trump on her side and the media can't mock her and she saves her "so called credibility" amongst her supporters, hence more paid appearances, continued Fox contract and future book deals or whatever. Palin is riding this money machine for all its got. She WILL NOT jeopardize that. You can bet your last dollar on that one.

I'm going in with Perry. She will help him do damage control by explaining how the news media pounces on every thing you do; and she herself, has been a victim of the same media circus. If Palin was a truthful/sincere person with teaparty views, she would have to vote for Paul. Since she isn't, it will go to one of the RINO's.

Perry probably got her in the sack, lol.

Gretawire twitter page seems to indicate 10pm EST.

Just a year ago I think a Palin endorsement would have been given primetime coverage.

 

[Elwar]

It is Perry. Palin helped Perry get re-elected to governor. Glenn Beck just had Perry on this morning. Beck and Palin are on the same team.

Palin will endorse Rick Perry. More neo-con division.

I see your point but its hard to believe she would jump on a sinking ship.

Beck is going all-in with Santorum. There isn't a directive that they all are issued. They are individuals. A endorsement of Perry doesn't seem likely on the account that his unfavorability outweighs favorability among Republican voters.

 

[Carole]

Palin is a warmonger and will not endorse Ron Paul. He is the one she should endorse, but she will not.

Maybe Perry. Anyone else she endorses will completely discredit her views, such as they are.

Unfortunately, Perry cannot win. Cain cannot win. Gingrich cannot win, though he is plenty full of debate material which he is a master at spinning. Romney cannot win; he has been running for ffour years and no one wants him and his flip-flopping, spinning views. Santorum lines up closely with Palin, but he cannot win. Bachmann cannot win. Huntsman cannot win.

That only leaves Paul. She will not endorse him IMHO. But I would love to be wrong.

 

[acptulsa]

She tends to try and pick assured winners that are close to her beliefs.

Well, that can't happen. Ain't no such animal.

How could Palin go from Perry to Paul, they have nothing in common.

Careful there, pardner...

 

[specsaregood]

I see your point but its hard to believe she would jump on a sinking ship.

Especially when all polls and indications are that the future of the GOP is in the Ron Paul wing.

Don't know how connected Beck is with the Fox crowd anymore, but there certainly is a directive issued to the talking heads at Fox/conservative radio.

 

[Romulus]

She jumped on the Rand wagon at the right time to make herself look good.... I am hoping she will do the same with Ron.. now would be a good time to do that for her.
