Where are the "Palin isn't running" Brigade?
Saturday August 20, 2011 | Floyd Resse

Posted on 08/20/2011 2:26:12 PM PDT by Bigtigermike

It's interesting that in the past 24 to 48 hours, we haven't heard much from a line of posters who repeatedly visits threads about Sarah Palin to remind everybody that Palin wasn't running for the President. It has nothing to do with ramping up speculation from some of the naysayers in the media that she is going to run? Which is silly since anybody paying any amount of attention to the past year at the very least could see that things were pointing to Palin most likely making a run eventually for the Presidency.

By the way, the same people claiming over and over again that Sarah wasn't running also kept speculating that she would endorse candidate X, be it Herman Cain, Tim Pawlenty, Michele Bachmann or the new flavor of the month Rick Perry (supposedly to had endorse him last Saturday at the IA State Fair to be exact from the experts)

Nope.....the statement was for the naysayers who were so certain in what they believe or more than likely wished, that if they did looked into it then they would have come to some conclusion that it was highly likely that would run

Sarah Palin campaigned against Kay Bailey Hutchison as much as she campaigned for Rick Perry in 2008.

Hutchison said some very nasty things about Palin after she got the VP nod. Sarah believes in paying back political debts. Campaigning for Perry was Palin’s opportunity to drive a couple final nails into Kay's political coffin.

I don’t know if she’s running or not.
///
i certainly admit i don’t “know” either.

but, even Perry supporters, should admit,
that Sarah is a genuine person, who cares about America,
and her supporters.

it would take an incredibly cruel and callous person,
to let literally millions continue to support her, including financially,
if she had already decided not to run.

anyone who believes Sarah is that callous,
probably believes Islam is the religion of peace...
and that that C.A.I.R. and La Raza are worth talking to.

She’s praised Perry enough that I think she’s painted herself into a corner.

Then you apparently did not see her interview with Meghan Kelly yesterday, or the day before when she said she did not see anyone currently declare that she could support.

Sarah Palin has been an inspiration to many conservatives through these bleak years of watching zero tear the country apart. I’m grateful to her for that and I believe she would make a fine President and if nominated would give her my 100% support. I also like Rick Perry a bunch....I could live with either and those folks who think she couldn’t beat zero....as General McAliffe said: NUTS....... My dog could beat that POS..but of course my dog is smarter!

She isn’t running.

But Gov. Palin is enjoying toying with the media and her “base.”

And I don’t blame her. She is having the time of her life.

Not sure why you are pinging me. Palin is my first choice followed by Cain > Perry > Bachmann. I’m just not in the business of completely trashing those who is not my number one choice and/or letting BS be spread about them. (with the exception of the Ron Paul/Mitt Romney crowd who are fun to pick on).

I don’t think she’s running, but I hope I’m wrong.

What were her exact words, is there a quote somehwere? I have looked but cannot find it. If she actually said those exact words you have stated, then yes that is good evidence she is running.

Not running, sauntering.

Cheers!

She’s running. If you read some of the things she’s written and said over the last couple months, the candidate-ness of the statements is unmistakable.

I think they are busy telling us why Perry is a terrible conservative.

I’m right here. Six months ago, I thought she would, but I don’t any more. She said she’d get in if there weren’t any good candidates. She’s praised Perry enough that I think she’s painted herself into a corner.

Agree on all points.

Kind of funny for a Palin's gonna run poster, to create a vanity thread looking for the posters that think Sarah Palin has decided not to be a Presidential candidate for 2012. Whatever I guess.
