The article cites quite accurately that she is "walking away from" as much of her country as is crying out for her leadership as President in 2012.

I'm not obfuscating anything. My point remains; Sarah isn't walking away from anything. She was never a candidate, so she's not 'quitting' the race. She simply decided, as did Chris Christie, that the time wasn't right for herself or her family. If some of her supporters didn't understand what she was saying all along, that she was seriously, prayerfully, considering a race, but would have to wait and see what God, and her family, put on her heart, and that she would make her decision known in the Fall, which is exactly what she did.

I know many of her supporters had pinned their hopes on her, because they are so dissatisfied with the rest of the candidates, but we have what we have, and we'll have to make do with one of the remaining candidates. I like Herman Cain, myself, but frankly, I'll vote for whoever ends up the nominee, because ANYONE will be better than Obama. And if that Republican enters office with a larger number of conservatives in Congress, all the better for us. That is what Sarah will be working for, and I'm looking forward to that!

Look.

Palin’s head and shoulders above the other Republicans in a number of ways - but she’s made a spectacle of her supporters. Disappointed us and let us down. Now she’s a distraction.

She should get out of the way right now and let the real candidates set the public debate.

She runs the risk of truly becoming irrelevant. But she’s the one who made that decision.

Palin can reconsider and get back in the race - plenty of time for that. Or get out of the way until which time her imput is no longer a distraction from the REAL CANDIDATES.

Pick a lane.

Semantics. It doesn't matter whether she ever said she'd run or not. When a huge chunk of America calls you to run for office, you either follow the calling or you walk away from it.

Don't try to pretend she's following the call for her to run for president. She is not. Save your half-baked, goofy-spun, third-grade excuses for someone who gives a flying funk.

Not allowed on this thread. Don't try to weasel-word around it, because IT WILL NOT FLY HERE. "SarahPAC" was never intended to mean "Sarah ~ Potato, Armchair/Couch"
