Absolutely unbelievable. Get a grip.

Those of you who read me know how I feel about Sarah Palin....just look at my tag line.....and I will write her name in in November, and keep my word that I will vote fro her....
But if she does not undo this incredible mistake, and quickly, she will supply all the media and all her detractors with what they will call "Proof" that every rotten thing they said about her was true.....
And what a way to thank Steve Bannon for his film and DVD....on the day it comes out to most stores, she gets out, braking millions of little people hearts and killing the sales of all those DVD, which will now be in the $1 bin in a month, if it takes that long.....actually I wouldn't be surprised to see Walmart cancel the order.
Book sales, TV shows, etc. they have all been thrown away....oh it might take a little while, but you can see it disappearing as we speak.....
Sarah talked to Mark Levin about security for her family....does she think they will be safer now that she's invisible? Her son went to war and risked his life, and we know only too well that she is risking her life and the lives of her family, but the only way to fight that is to shine a light on it.......
I believe tremendous numbers of Americans would surround them and her home to protect the kids....and her.....
She needed to be in the debates, and in the media every day possible, WIN OR LOSE, it doesn't matter, she had such strength that she could command coverage for the right things.....she has thrown all that away...
To my wonderful Freeper friends here, how long do you really think she will be a power now without the possibility of becoming President....the crowds will leave because they feel betrayed....I've been through this with Perot.....we worked hard and did what we could because we wanted a real person in the White House, and then he punked out and there was nothing left but the illusion of a compaign.
Sarah needs to retract this, blame it on all of us who are crying tonight, but if she gets out, she will no longer be a force.
No Offense Angel, but you owe it to us to even lose your life in the pursuit of America, many others have and will, but you are the chosen one, and you need to get right in the middle of this and take bambi and his socialism down.
Absolutely unbelievable. Get a grip.
GET OVER IT! Cain is our guy! MOVE ON!
I didn’t think it was possible to top your earlier crying baby post but you did it! Good job
As if they had any idea what her decision would be, they guessed she wouldn't run, then be-littled those of us who REALLY would have liked to have her as the Candidate.
With a 50-50 chance of being Run/Not Run, it's a safe bet to say Not Run, then brag about your "knowledge" and belittle others.
America lost, but we have to band behind the ONLY really Conservative/Principled Candidate in the Field: Cain.
Romney is the Establishment pick, and has the money people behind him, so Cain is a very LONG SHOT to win the Nomination. But then, so was Reagan, when he ran.
We'll see, but I would NEVER vote again for a Democrat-lite Candidate.
WELL SAID !
Only those who wanted to keep bashing Palin in favor of turncoat democrats....
Here all week. Try the veal.
Thank you Sarah, I respect your decision, and may God bless you and your family.
I’ve been her advocate since before McCain picked her. I’m a fan, and will still be a fan. But this is deeply disappointing.
What was the point of coming to Indianola, looking us in the eye, giving that fire-in-the-belly speech, and saying “here’s my plan”? Why have a plan if you’re not a candidate.
I came home from that speech and told everyone “she’s running”. Don’t I feel like a fool tonight.
And you’re right about cutting Bannon off at the knees. Or, maybe she delayed the announcement to help him get the DVD into the stores. Who knows right now?
She made the right decision, at this time... and for our country....get a grip please and don’t throw away your vote.
Sarah either didn’t want to be exposed to the brutal vetting process and the impact on her family
... or she examined the field and didn’t think she could differentiate herself and win.
I think she is amazingly politically astute.
In the end, she toured with her non-campaign bus, thought through all the implications and decided she
didn’t want it. I don’t blame her a bit and I respect her for following her mind and heart.
Writing in her name sounds like she’s your teen idol... time to let it go. Sarah did.
I think at the time of Indianola, she was planning on running. I really do. The savagery of the media this past month, and the horrid verbal assault towards Bristol might have turned the tide. I think she saw the writing on the wall, that the country is literally about to come apart, and she would be targeted as the media’s, the culture’s, the establishment’s ‘object of hate.’ A pretty horrific position to find oneself, and undoubtedly unwinnable. I wanted desperately for her to run, but the reality tells me that she has probably made the smartest move, and might indeed be able to promote her brand of conservatism more effectively. I really do think this. I intend to continue supporting her 100%.
Something changed since Indianola indeed. You may be right.
She’s not right that she will be effective outside the system. Her brand just became irrelevant.
You know that they are partying in the White House tonight.
The same as a black nationalist crypto-Islamic marxist? I don't see any of those in the GOP field, frankly.
I meant that in a more general sense: more out-of-control spending, more creeping socialism, more crony capitalism, no solution to the immigration issue, etc., etc. Basically a slightly different flavor of Tyranny. Whoop-de-friggin'-doo.
Cain is now my preference.
I think Sarah wanted to run, I think she always planned to run but something happened to make her bow out.....
That being said....
There is NO one to take her place....there is no one out there who can take the fight to Bambi, none of the milk toast candidates we have has her balls and if she was going to get out she should have done it months ago and spared all the hurt and grief that folks are feeling now...
And this nonsense that she is going to still be our champion, she doesn’t realize that no one that is the enemy is scared of her anymore, and the creeps are already using this against her, saying THEY WERE RIGHT about her and we, who loved her and believed in her were wrong....even right here on this thread.....
I listened to Mark say she’ll still be out there but it doesn’t matter, she was our Knight in the game, the pure and honest one who would stand up to all the comers, and now she is gone.
I care about America and America needs Sarah Palin, not Romeny or Perry or any other flavor of the month....they were just marking time until the Big dog arrived, and she bailed out on us.....
America deserved better.....I am sorry, but this is real life, and if the family is going to have it rough, then they have it rough and you fight for your cause even if some get hurt, because that what George Washington did and that’s the man we need now.....
But the man we need is a woman: and her name is Sarah Palin and I pray the Lord speaks to her and brings her back to the fight.....and we will be there for her.
I have a piece of ocean front property that is a screaming deal. I will give you first shot at it before I list it with a Realtor. You don't want to pass this deal up.
I wouldn’t be too quick to say her brand will become irrelevent. It might sound like the logical outcome, but if anything, Palin is not your usual, everyday ‘politician.’ She has some themes that could really stoke some fires under the feet of the establishment.
thank goodness some else gets it.....
