Sarah Palin Urges Newt Vote in Florida, Says Gingrich Will 'Clobber' Obama

Sarah Palin is urging Florida voters to vote for Newt Gingrich on Tuesday in their state's Republican primary.

"Vote for Newt," Palin told Jeanine Pirro, host of the Fox News weekend program "Justice with Jeanine."

Palin made a passionate plea for Republican voters to reject Mitt Romney in Florida to keep the primary process going forward.

The former Alaska governor made it crystal clear that she favors former House Speaker Gingrich, suggesting that the Republican establishment in New York and Washington is trying to anoint former Massachusetts Gov. Romney the GOP nominee.

So, if for no other reason, rage against the machine, vote for Newt, annoy a liberal, vote Newt, keep this vetting process going, keep the debate going.”

Here are key points Palin made on Fox:

The only people getting annoyed is the GOP establishment and the people financing this disaster. What you are recommending will only help burn more money while prolonging the mud wrestling*.

*h/t John McCain. I wonder what he's thinking about his VP choice now? Betcha he'd like that decision back.

I won't translate it for you here...

The punch line is this: When it comes to dancing, it's less humiliating to be criticized by the monkey, than praised by the pig...


Even if the pig is wearing lipstick....
