Sarah Palin Lays Into "Unscrupulous, Gimmicky Thuggery" of "Obama Ticket Machine"

Sarah Palin weighed in on the race for the White House last night. You were dying to hear from her, we know. You’re so welcome. Appearing on Fox News’ Hannity , Palin, who hasn’t endorsed a Republican candidate in the 2012 campaign, offered general praise for the field after Tuesday’s Iowa caucus results , reserving the red meat for President Barack Obama. Sarah Palin on Hannity “My concern is for the GOP candidate who wins this primary as they go forward to face the Obama presidential ticket machine and really the thuggery that is involved in that,” Palin said, segueing to John McCain’s endorsement of Mitt Romney . “I believe that Senator McCain, in his endorsement of Mitt Romney, Senator McCain and I, we’re the only ones in America who have ever had to face that Obama presidential ticket machine and all that it encompassed,” she added. “What it encompassed, you know, this unscrupulous, gimmicky scheme that it was.” “Senator McCain, evidently has chosen Mitt Romney as the one to be the most prepared to face this thuggery, this scheme that someone’s going to have to face.” Is Romney the best prepared? Or the most electable? Do you wish Palin would have run for President herself? Or that she’d go away forever? Share your thoughts with us.
