Sarah never set ANY date. In response to questioning about Aug/Sept being a drop dead date, she said “for legal and logisticcal reasons that would be the basic time frame, yes”.
Perhaps she is aware of how big of a let down this will be? Perhaps she realizes she allowed this tease to go on too long and while she had decided against running, just can't face the hostile reaction she will unleash from her rabid supporters.
By George, you're catching on! You do realize that you just reinforced my argument / reasoning for why Palin is indeed running, don't you?
Rita, all due respect but your argument is hilarious. You say “Leaders lead”.........well, let’s expand your analysis of “leading” and plug Eisenhower into the discussion. He was, few would dispute, a leader, charged by fate and chronology with the responsibility of invading Fortress Europe. In the leadup to D-day, Eisenhower created whole divisions of rubber tank diversons opposite Pas de Calais resulting in enough indecisiveness and confusion on the part of Hitler and his generals in the initial crucial hours to save untold thousands of our young soldiers lives!
Similarly, Palin is creating a lot of indecisiveness in the minds of elite pubbies (her enemy) and Soros (her enemy) and the press (her enemy) and the left in general (her enemies) all the while saving many millions of preciouos dollars for her fight which she wants to be one in which she, on election day, is not beholding to the usual array of criminal influence peddlers in posession of big bucks to bribe candidates.
Eisenhower finally announced D-day the night of June 5-6, only hours before the troops started moving and when all conditions in his “leader” mind were as perfect as they could get for his enormous challenge!
When Sarah feels conditions are right, timing (the clock) is right and everything is as it should be for her to have the maximum chance of success (and with the very existence of America at stake), like Eisenhower she will let all her enemies, as well as her friends know. Until then, like Eisenhower, she has very solid reasons for keeping quite about her June 6th !!!
Eisenhower had how many years of training and experience in real, actual warfare? Palin? I don’t think so; the comparison is so fatuous that you do more harm than you imagine to Palin.
Eisenhower had how many years of training and experience in real, actual warfare? Palin? I don’t think so; And your point/relevance?!
Granted, Eisenhower was dealing with blood flowing within 24 hours and nothing can be more awesome than that notwithstanding the fact that he himself was never involved in actual combat coming up through the ranks.
But, as Gabbie proved, politics in the US is a blood sport too. So, with all due respect to you sir, the Palin’s probably do see running for President as a form of “warfare” and warfare that can be very ‘real’ and very ‘actual’. I’m sure Todd thinks about Gabbie almost daily! Keyboard jockey’s like you and I should bear that in mind. I do.
I love the rubber tank diversion story. I love WWII stories, but please. Ms Palin, however, is attributed with powers, feats and victories that are imaginary by any solid measurement and the Eisenhower comparison is hilarious were it not so embarrassing. I fear outright voodoo is no longer out of the question.
Voodoo??? I’m speechless. YOu have an active mind.
That you cannot grasp the similarities between one big event in our history and another is unfortunate though not so surprising since history hasn’t been taught in government schools in decades.
This is an ongoing list of historical, popular, and Biblical people, as well as fictional characters and animals that Sarah Palin™ has been compared to on FR:
These are all serious comparisons. None are of my own invention.
In case you’re wondering, Jesus Christ was on the list at one time but I removed him because *I* was accused of being sacrilegious.
