Give it up, Sarah. Your energy would be spent in a better manner organizing people to support conservative causes than running for president.

Health care? Education?

Sounds like the pointy heads expect that she's going to appeal to the women's vote-- not a chance. The women who vote on "women's issues" are overwhelming statists.

Whoever is giving her advice, is taking Andrew Jackson and turning her into Colin Powell, imho. Damn shame.

Its a Political Action Committee that funds political actions — OK, that came out funny, but true. I assume it would be preparing to prepare for the next election. Sarah needs to build strength by doing things that are visible and expensive.

I agree. Whether Sarah runs or not (I hope she will), she is the only Republican *conservative* with a public spotlight right now. So she is a good choice to be the public face and voice of this movement.

I think she is capable of both organizing people to support consevative causes and running for president. Heck our current president organized whole communities and ran for president.

Nice picture of Sarah, but please, PLEASE, lose the hand under the chin thing. Whenever I see a woman’s picture like that, she is either:

A) Trying to hide multiple chins, or
B) Trying to look like an intellectual when she’s not

In Governor Palin’s case, option A is definitely out, and, in spite of what the DBM might tell you, she doesn’t need to fake intellect!

Around her the Conservatives Republicans can gather to re-take the Party once again. We must or face the terrible prospect of a Liberal dictatorship. Around Sarah a new image of Republicanism can rise—religious, pro-life, patriotic, and free market. We must cast out or convert the old guard so that when the next election cycle stats we can field conservatives and not RINOS. We need new symbols and new directions. Most of all we need new blood and leadership. There is no place in the New Republicans for the likes of McCain or Arnold.

Sarah does not have a chance. The media has her number and she is not big enough to silence it.

Go for it Sarah. I voted for you, not McCain. When I picked up 11 yard signs at the GOP headquarters I told the people I was there to get Palin signs.

I'm sure if you could say this in person to her that grand lady would kindly thank you for this sage advice, pat you on the head and politely urge you to run along.

NO person today generates as much excitement, and hope, for the G.O.P. as does Governor Palin. If politics were genetic, she surely was passed her heredity from Thomas Jefferson and Ronald Reagan.

Pro-Life Ex-VP Candidate Sarah Palin Starts New Political Action Committee

Former vice-presidential candidate Sarah Palin has started a new political action committee -- in what may be a move to build relationships leading up to a 2012 presidential run. The new SarahPAC appears ready to support candidates for Congress in the mid-term elections next year.

"SarahPac is a federally registered political action committee that supports Gov. Sarah Palin's plans to build a better, stronger, and safer America in the 21st century," the new PAC announces on its web site.

"Gov. Sarah Palin believes all Americans must work together for the future, regardless of their party affiliation. Gov. Palin is the official chair of SarahPac, and its supporters are Republicans, Democrats, Independents, and those unaffiliated with any political party," the PAC indicates.

The PAC is "to building America's future, supporting fresh ideas and candidates who share our vision for reform and innovation."

"SarahPAC believes America's best days are ahead. Our country, founded on conservative principles and the fight for freedom, must confront the challenges of the 21st century with integrity, innovation, and determination," it says.

The political action committee's web site indicates it will support the agenda Palin had as a vice-presidential candidate: energy independence and reform along with stronger economic programs and pro-life and pro-family values.

"SarahPac will support local and national candidates who share Gov. Palin's ideas and goals for our country," it explains.

The PAC encourages people supporting it to stand up for their values as a new president takes over the country.

"As a new president takes office and begins to lead our country, Gov. Palin believes that every one of us has a duty and responsibility in this time of economic crisis and international challenge. Each one of us must step up to the plate, get involved in the spirit of renaissance and renewal that is critical to America's success," it says.

"By supporting SarahPac, you will allow Gov. Palin to help find and create solutions for America's most pressing problems," it says.

The PAC appears to define an agenda for Palin and the Republican Party that could serve as her main platform for a potential presidential bid.

"SarahPAC believes the Republican Party is at the threshold of an historic renaissance that will build a better future for all. Health care, education, and reform of government are among our key goals," it says.

The PAC web site features images of a smiling Sarah Palin along with an Alaska mountain vista and an image of Alaska overlayed on a map of the continental United States.
