As a Texan I read Palin as having much more real inner strength than Rick Perry.

Perry is a little overly theatrical in his overt swaggering performances, it is a far cry from his days as a college cheerleader. Perry is almost like LBJ in playing theatrical, manly, Texas politician.

The little baby is already crying about how nasty Obama was to him. He hasn’t seen a tenth of the level of attack that Palin gets.

By labor day he’ll be spending more time with his shrink than on the trail.

I think the author is referring to her statements during the 2008 campaign. Vice-Presidential candidates mimic what the Presidential candidate says on the issues.

Then how’d Obama get in there?

He’s got a feminine passive agressive personality.

Not, they’re working together as a team. Perry is just blocking for her right now by taking the heat.

Agree with this.

Palin supporters are not as stupid as Perry and Romney supporters.

Talk like that really helps Palin. /s

Yes, playing is the word. His vituperative behavior during the Gardasil fiasco was like that of an unattractive lesbian in a middle management position, not a big, manly Texas Governor.

Cleaning the toilet in her office would be too good a job for a-hole Rove.

I’ve been wondering if that isn’t a possibility.

She is but I believe she’d step in if she reads a weak nominee on the horizon.

She’s not going to run and here’s why. She knows there’s a huge chance she loses, and if she does, she will lose a lot of her influence and gravatas. My bet is, she plays it safe, sit’s this one out and see what the future brings.

Sarah is very smart in that sense. She will do whatever it takes to rid us of the current vermin occupant and I believe she knows her chances and they are what you say.

In the Megyn Kelly interview today, she flatly declared that none of the currently announced candidates could qualify for her endorsement.

How much more does anyone need to figure out that she is not stopping until she reaches the oval office.

Palin interview with Univision.

You can say she was just articulating the McCain view but she said it.

As governor, how do you deal with them? Do you think they all should be deported?

There is no way that in the US we would roundup every illegal immigrant -there are about 12 million of the illegal immigrants- not only economically is that just an impossibility but that's not a humane way anyway to deal with the issue that we face with illegal immigration.

Do you then favor an amnesty for the 12 or 13 million undocumented immigrants?

No, I do not. I do not. Not total amnesty. You know, people have got to follow the rules. They've got to follow the bar, and we have got to make sure that there is equal opportunity and those who are here legally should be first in line for services being provided and those opportunities that this great country provides.

To clarify, so you support a path to citizenship for undocumented immigrants?

I do because I understand why people would want to be in America. To seek the safety and prosperity, the opportunities, the health that is here. It is so important that yes, people follow the rules so that people can be treated equally and fairly in this country.

She will lose her influence if she doesn't run.
