Palin is playing pan-dimensional chess, while all others are soiling their diapers at the thought of running against her. She is doing something (not sure what exactly) PRECISELY like Sun Tzu would do it, so DON’T WORRY. Even though she is not running, she WILL!!!!!!!!!!!!!! be the next POTUS. She’s just that brilliant, or, to quote Sun Tzu, “Those who do not run, alway become president.” Ahhh, so!
I have said before that her instincts are keen when it comes to politics. If she navigates this minefield I would count it as a masterstroke. I’m reminded of a scene from The Hunt for Red October-
“The hard about playing chicken Mr. Ryan, is knowing when to flinch.”
That may be so, Doc. She definitely would have had my support and vote had she announced. I have to tell you, I’m sick of the game playing. The stakes are too high in this election and we need to be moving on to solutions, not playing cat and mouse games.
Month after month passes as candidates get into, and out of, the race. Sarah does nothing. She doesn’t jump in. Finally with deadlines approaching to get on the ballot, she says you know what, not running. People are shocked?
Some of us could have told you that months ago. If she cared
she would have jumped in a long time ago. Debated the likes
of Romney, Cain, Perry, etc. If she’s as talented as people think she would go strongly into the primaries. But:
a) Waiting so long pissed many of us off
b) Idolatry...yes we can respect and admire those who might someday become president but this was venturing into
Obama terrority: YES WE CAN, YOU BETCHA!
c) Impossible to predict what would happen in primaries.
She could have entered and done well, or been a bust,
but she never declared. For the guy declaring her “Madam
President” maybe someday, but it would help if she actually had declared before people assume she and Todd will move
into the White House on 1/20/13.
Maybe someday...
This will work only if the convention is open due to no one gaining a majority. AND if she is drafted by the convention and accepts the draft. A lot of ifs there. Could be interesting. Hard to pin my hope on that scenario.
I enjoyed your satirical reply. But I am disconcerted that some take it seriously! Golly!
