Congresswoman Kristi Noem endorsed Presidential Candidate Marco Rubio today. In a statement released by the Rubio Campaign, Kristi Noted:
“Marco Rubio represents the kind of next-generation conservative leader that puts our party in the best position to win back the White House next year. Marco stands out from his competitors in his ability to articulate a conservative vision for what kind of country we can become in this new American century. As the son of a bartender and a maid, he possesses a personal understanding of the challenges facing hardworking taxpayers in South Dakota and across the country, and he has conservative solutions to help address today’s most pressing problems. I’m proud to endorse Marco Rubio for President and I look forward to helping him win.” – Kristi Noem
Congresswoman Noem follows Mike Rounds in supporting Mike Huckabee, and several state legislators in supporting Jeb Bush.
Rubio will most likely win the nomination after we get past the distractions.
Thune helped the establishment punch a hole in the 2008 Mike Huckabee surge by endorsing McCain. Huckabee still won Iowa, but he narrowly lost South Carolina, and his campaign never fully recovered.
Then Thune helped the establishment punch a hole in the 2012 Ron Paul surge by endorsing Romney. Paul eventually won a majority of the delegates from Iowa and three other states, but he narrowly lost Iowa’s popular vote, and his campaign never fully recovered.
Now I expect Thune to help the establishment punch a hole in the Ben Carson surge by endorsing Rubio or Bush. Time will tell the consequences.
A few loudmouth journalists on the radical left say a committed evangelical Christian can’t win the presidency, and Thune and Noem try to forfeit before the contest even starts. In my view these cowards have absolutely no credibility when it comes to predicting which candidates would put Republicans in the “best position to win back the White House.”
The “best position to win back the White House.” is not the position which holds that the Egyptian pyramids were built to store grain.
Yeah Kristi, good for you. Poms poms and all!
If Kristi supports him, he has my vote. She has her hand on the pulse of American voters.
You meant to say she has her hand on the checkbook or wallet of the American voters?
Totally expected this.
Congresswoman Noem I think still has the right to choose and vote for whomever the hell she likes.
Who do you like at this stage, Charlie?
Anon thanks for asking. We have been busy with our third Grandson born two days ago. Healthy 23 inch 11 lb 12 oz future Viking Pro Bowler, or haystacker like his Papa!😆
A Rubio/Carson ticket would be my unbeatable first choice. Though knowing America voted in Obama twice gives credence to the pendulum swaying into a Trump victory too.
