On Hannity tonight, Sarah Palin tells South Carolinians to vote for Gingrich to keep the race going with all of the candidates. They all need more time for vetting to make sure the final candidate is the right one. Don't make Romney inevitable.
Note: She did not endorse Gingrich. She just wants the race to keep going longer.
I am sure that will make them all run right out and do that...lol. She, of all people, thinks the candidates need to be vetted more. What a piece of work she is. I am sure John McCain wished she had been vetted at all before they stuck this dimwit on his ticket.
The funny thing is that I am sure lots of Gingrich fans who despised Sarah Palin before are now going to think she is a genius because she is "supporting" their candidate.
Although I can't say what was on her mind that she didn't say, coming off the Fox News debate, of the non-Romney candidates, Gingrich will have some momentum so vote for him just to deafeat Romney and keep the race going longer with all of the candidates still in. (Remember the winner of SC gets 25 delegates and so far, Romney has 20. It would make it a real race. Actually, it will be a REALLY big race if it turns out Santorum actually won Iowa.)
The eventual national non-Romney candidate choice will then be made futher down the line given a long vetting period.
She didn't name names but it was pretty obvious to me that she was sending out the message not to believe all of the media types who say Romney is inevitable/most electable and maybe she was talking in code because the news media network saying it the most is the one she was on tonight. She made it clear she was not ready to endorse anyone and that advising SC to go for Gingrich was just to extend the race.

Death sentance for 2 ounces of weed, that is an herb that grows naturally. That is insane. Ironically, Gringrich supported medicinal marijuana in 1982, but then changed his mind.
