Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin said it’s not too late for someone to enter the Republican presidential race.

“Things can still be shaken up,” Palin told Fox News.

“Things can change in terms of candidates coming and going.” Palin said over the weekend that she was not enthusiastic about anyone in the current GOP field.

“I don’t think that the field has to be considered set today – set and locked up,” she said. “Even beyond Iowa I think there is time for more shakeup.”

She told Fox News that she has concerns about the current GOP field and what she called their lack of focus on economic issues.

“I don’t feel the candidates grasping that and articulation solutions as to how we can meet the economic challenges in this country,” she said. “That scares me.”

“No one seems to have really grasped, except for Ron Paul, the gravity of our economic situation,” she said. “And with Ron Paul, I don’t agree with all of his foreign policy decisions.”

They aren’t interested in the good.

Hiya Mike!

Third post of about the same.

We’re all going to watch Eric Bolling’s Fox Business News show, “Follow the Money” tonight at 10:00PM Eastern, 9:00PM Central 7:00PM Pacific!

Merry CHRISTmas!!!!

Minor quibble: Palin says she doesn't agree with Paul's foreign policy decisions. Strange choice of word there, in my opinion. What "decisions"? Policy stances he's got, but "decisions"?

Sarah Palin said it’s not too late for someone to enter the Republican presidential race.

If she's referring to herself, what seems to be the hold-up?

The homeless guy on the corner can "say" things... let's see her DO something.

She’s talking about Jeb Bush. He’s out with a campaign-like economic policy statement today.

The title FOX is using is totally misleading. Nowhere in that interview did she talk about anyone jumping in to the race. She discusses that the race can still be shaken up, i.e.; people in the back of the pack could jump forward after IA and sets some parameters that could do that with a candidates focus on some key issues.

And, lo, a star rose in the eastern sky ...

“Nowhere in that interview did she talk about anyone jumping in to the race.”

Yes she did:

“Things can change in terms of candidates coming and going.” Palin said “

Good. Why don’t you ping all the PDSers and tell them to stay out too?

Oh, and Andrea Bocelli Christmas music.

Chill bumps.
