Don’t leave out the commie rat freepers who jumped on every Sarah thread to regurgitate their vile from the media pissant talking points.

But she could have announced earlier. She went on a bus tour. There was “the Undefeated” release. Those were all indications that she was running.

It was Team Romney and his supporters.

It continued to this very week with Ailes' buddy
and subteam Wallace.

RE: Condoleeza Rice, she’s no longer SoS and not getting news coverage, but world leaders still do confer with her, as do major policy crafters. Just because she’s not in the news doesn’t mean she’s not plenty effective and influential. There comes a time to move away from the limelight, and that’s as it should be.

There is some freeper who is trying to do just that. Unfortunately, don’t remember who.

But most of the negative things people have heard about her, aren’t from Romney and his allies. They’re from liberals.

That's how some, many here on FR, interpreted those things, many, however, did not see things that way, and were attacked for it.

Hi Laz!

In isn’t over until the nominating convention drops the balloons.

The Republican Party is splintered and it is obvious that Romney is not enthusiastically embraced by the majority of the party - polls be damned!

We have an opportunity to capture a great many seats and the White House come Nov. 2011. Hopefully, we won’t snatch defeat from the jaws of success.

I just gave you a load of URLs.

Give us ONE showing Romney having defended
any GOP woman ever.
Romney would not let his own Lt. Gov on the stage with him.

Rove and Romney are misogynists.
But you have not seen that either, right?

I agree about Karl Rove.

Sarah was very effective ONLY because of the possibility that she may become president. Without that possibility, she is not much different than someone like Condi Rice--at one time very relevant for America, and for now much less so.

I disagree. She's still drawing crowds, and still has a lot to say about the economy and energy issues, and the failures of the present occupant of the White House. And the fact that she's young yet, leaves the chance that she might run in the future, when her kids are grown. One never knows.

Totally agree. I believe she was definitely leaning towards running but she had to wait for something. When she made her decision, is when we heard about it. I believe, also, she would rather have things worked out differently. Two of her children did not want her to run - they were very concerned for her safety in those large crowds as she and her children got daily threats. We supported Sarah for a reason and she is a woman of honor - and there is nothing to suggest otherwise. Do you really think she knew all along she wasn't running and just told us now? For what reason?

She misled her supporters

No, she didn't. She said all along that she was considering a run, and that she would make her decision known, before it got too late in the campaign. Back in August, she said she'd announce yay or nay, in Sept. or Oct., but sometime in the Fall. That's exactly what she did.

Amazing, isn’t it. They ‘supposedly’ supporter her but don’t know anything she said. Sounds more like they enjoy their liberal whine.

And it looked like she was leaning towards running by what she was doing.

The reason I had hoped for a Palin candidacy was that I had believed that she may be able to start to right the sinking ship that is America. But I fully accept that it will not be the case at least until 2016 (and very possibly never).

Let me preface my reply by saying that even though it may sound like an endorsement of Perry, and as many on here know I am a Perry supporter, it is not. It is an endorsement of America. I know that right now that it may seem that America is on it's last legs, it certainly looks it when you consider the overwhelming support Obama received in '08 and because of Marxist junk that has been shoved on us in the past 3 years. Added to that the war we are now fighting with the unions and Marxist occupiers that are being given support by the Statist that are in control right now. But look to Texas.

In Texas the American spirit and "Americanism" that has defined us as the greatest Nation on Earth is still present in our people. We have shown in our state that the uniqueness and greatness of the American Spirit will overcome all obstacles and freedom will always prevail. I will concede the argument that Perry was handed "four aces" with Texas, I will also say that so has every governor in America because those four aces are Americans, American Democracy, American ingenuity, and Freedom. In Texas, we were smart enough not to throw in those Aces in hope of a better hand. By clinging to our Americanism Texas continues to prove that America is still the greatest Nation ever conceived in spite of Obama and the rest of the Statist attempts to destroy us. We lead the country in job creation, we continue to fill our couffers, and our housing market, import and export and energy production is as strong now as it was before the recession hit. So long as we continue to throw off the shackles of slavery that Statist always use to try to destroy freedom America will always be the "Shining City on the Hill".

So take heart, America will prevail, we will not be destroyed. The Left always believes they know of a better way but have only theory to prove it and a continuous track record of failure and misery. We, on the other hand, have 235 years of undeniable success to prove that Americanism is the only system that works. Look to Texas, the fire of freedom still burns and will spread back to re-ignite this gift of God, America, so long as we continue to fight.

We owe Sarah a debt of gratitude. During the time of Obama she armed us with truth and fortified us with courage in what could possibly have been our nation's darkest hours. She stepped-up to lead when everyone else cowered away and for that I will always be grateful. We owe her to pick up the flag and continue to charge into the battle.

It was last week and I made a mental note of the freeper’s screen name and now I forget! Why I rely on my memory I don’t know why!
