For Gingrich, an Endorsement of Sorts From Sarah Palin.
Ms. Palin, the former Alaska governor who ran for vice-president in in 2008, said that if she were a South Carolinian, I would vote for Newt in the states primary four days away.
The Gingrich campaign instantly posted video of the endorsement, which Ms. Palin made in an interview with Sean Hannity of Fox News that aired at 9 p.m.
Ms. Palin said that in her view, Mr. Gingrich won Mondays debate in Myrtle Beach, S.C. She hedged her praise somewhat by suggesting she was going with Mr. Gingrich to prolong the Republican contest in other words, to head off the inevitability of Mitt Romneys coronation should he win handily in South Carolina. She said that a longer race meant more debates and more vetting of candidates, something that did not occur as it should have, in her view, with President Obama.

the good thing about that is we might not hear much from her with Romney as the nominee. but then again she loves attention so she will find some way to get out there.
