Need another indication that Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin is eyeing a 2012 bid? Today she launched a new political action committee, SarahPAC, to dole out political donations to Republican candidates.
SarahPAC believes Americas 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, states the PACs Web site, which boasts that the governor of the oil-rich state is committed to energy independence.
As conservative blog RedState.org notes, Palin has a busy calendar, including anticipated appearances at the Republican National Committees winter meeting later this week, as well as a speech at the annual Conservative Political Action Conference gathering in late February.

Not only marketing, but a huge boots-on-the-ground effort, that’s how they did it.
There is a report that people are trying to verify that Gov. Palin has filed already with the FEC to run for the presidency in 2012. http://query.nictusa.com/cgi-bin/fecimg and click on Sarah Palin. Don’t know if it is legit but it would be great if it was. Someone filed the paperwork.
Ironically, Thompson gave his best speech at the RNC convention, way after he dropped out.
I was a Romney supporter, still think he had the best overall qualifications and Big Picture capability, but I think his time is past (as far as Pres).
I don’t want to “throw Sarah to the wolves” as was done. That is why I hesitated to get on board. However, if she wants to fight, then I do.
The media have now got a genuine idiot in the White House (did you hear his “destructed” comment on Sunday?), which they overlook yet want to label our people as such.
Sounds good. I’ll try to get a new one together soon.
Well, let’s see who she supports. Will it be like-minded patriots or will money go to RINOs who can help her in her WH bid? I’m hoping for just the former.
Go, Sarahcuda!
I love that woman!
Write the book, Sarah—I’m eager to see you get that big advance. Then go buy that red leather jacket I liked so much from the RNC. Wish I had a picture...(hint)
Or
“Genuine Hope”?
“Honest Hope”?
Thank you! I done been educated:) I would move there, but know I can’t take the cold!
I joined.
bttt
Cool, I just sent her the money I didn’t donate to the RNCC when they called last weekend.
The millions in donations the RNC received in the first few days after Mc_what’s_his_name announced Sarah for VP weren’t because of John.
Hope they pay attention.
I’d be curious to see how much $$ she raises just in the first day of this PAC.
I don’t think Fred wanted the job (nothing wrong in that) and McCain knew he wouldn’t get job as he was part of the setup.
We need a leader and I believe that is Sarah Palin.
Introducing SarahPAC From Sarah Palin
Today at 2:37pm
Hi Friends,
I wanted you to be the first to know that I launched my new political action committee, SarahPAC, today. Visit http://www.SarahPAC.com and stay tuned for updates.
Sincerely,
Sarah Palin
That would be interesting. I signed up and donated early this morning, set it up for a monthly amount. CNN, MSNBC, and lots of other news outlets have been spreading the news. Palin has a facebook page with over 450,000 “friends” on it, I heard from a few of them saying that they all got emails early this morning announcing her PAC, and containing a link. With coverage like this I’m sure she will raise a lot as this story will continue to spread for the rest of the week. Another story said she is going to be in DC on Saturday for some GOP fundraising event.
I made my contribution today. Sarah gets all my political contributions (except for the NRA) from now on. No more money for RNC wimps!
Other websites are reporting that a “Draft Sarah Palin for POTUS 2012” actually filed with the FEC. She had nothing to do with it.
