South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley (R) is expected to endorse Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) for President on Wednesday, according to multiple local reports.
The State and The Post and Courier newspapers first reported the endorsement on Wednesday afternoon, citing anonymous sources close to the governor.
Haley is expected to appear at a Rubio town hall at 6 p.m. ET in Chapin, South Carolina, according to the Post and Courier.
The South Carolina Republican primary is Saturday.
Haley is a large stockholder in Dasani.
And, I can haz vice-president, pls?
“Let’s get behind Marco Rubio! Because we want someone with the guile of a coat hanger to lead us to another financial disaster, guns in our schools, wars we can’t possibly pay for, and sending other people’s kids off to die so our oil companies can flourish! I stand with Marco Rubio!”
I can almost hear the dulcet tones of the Republican Teabagger base already: “Why, that dagnabbed Muslim furriner endorsed that goddamned greasy Mexican. I’m voting for a real 'Murican, like Ted Cruz or Donald Trump!”
She had to endorse someone since she couldn’t endorse her distant cousin Piyush.
