Following Marco Rubio’s departure from the race, Gov. Nikki Haley of South Carolina has switched her support to Sen. Ted Cruz.
Haley was quoted by Palmetto Politics:
“Ask me when the time comes again, but as of now, I strongly believe I will support the Republican nominee,” Haley said. “The only thing I can say now is my hope and my prayer is that Sen. Cruz can come through this.
That’s who privately I’m fighting for,” Haley told reporters during a Statehouse press conference about family services and the Department of Social Services. “I do see a path for him, because I think he’s been solid and strong the entire way. I think that he’s been disciplined in the way that he’s done it.”

What do you mean, “That’s who privately I’m fighting for,” Nikki?
Somebody told you to endorse Rubio a month ago?
Haley is another phony conservative who is dead to me. I don’t care who she endorses.
