A Palin Announcement on September 3rd Looks More Likely
Big Government ^ | Sunday August 21, 2011 | Natalie Nichols

Posted on 08/21/2011 11:51:59 AM PDT by Bigtigermike

If the Republican Presidential race were a poker game, you could say that Palin, the underdog has remained in late position long enough to see the full ring, to expose the live ones. She’s learned their tells, and she’s seen some bust, but now it’s time for her to go all in with what looks to be a royal flush.

If you’re not a poker player, you may need a poker dictionary to decipher my analogy. And “they” think she doesn’t know how the game of politics is played. The good old boys just never realized that she wasn’t playing by their rules.

If, or rather when, Sarah Palin announces her candidacy for President; Republican polls will likely shift in her favor.

[...]

It’s looking more and more these days as if Sarah Palin will announce her run for the White House in short order. If you keep up with Palin’s history, you may come to the conclusion that there is no accident in her decision to go to Iowa September 3rd for what many believe will be her big announcement. September 3, 2011 is three years, to the day, that Sarah Palin accepted the nomination for Vice President and gave her famously rousing speech during the Republican National Convention.

[..]

72% of likely Republican voters say when casting their primary vote, they favor a candidate who shares their views over one who has a better chance of winning.

That turns the notion of people agreeing with Sarah Palin, but “don’t think she can win” from a negative, into a potential strength. They are going to vote for her regardless, thus, breaking the mold of the typical voter.

We know she knows the score .. LOL .. all too well.
Didn’t she already say she’ll never do an interview with Katie Couric again?

You sound like a liberal.

I was paraphrasing Rush Limbaugh. April 2011.

Terrible idea. [And I mean it seriously too].

Full-out, indefensible pandering!

The first one wasn’t her idea anyway; it was an assigned suicide mission by the suicide candidate.

Specifically arranged by that troll Nicole Wallace.

I agree. He may have cost himself the nomination with that one.

I am very concerned with his use of the Texas industrial board. Seems like some campaign contributors made out pretty well. Same ole, same ole.

I see just another Bible toatin' Southern politician. Seem em in Alabama, Mississippi, Tennessee, Georgia. They do not excite me. I hope and pray we don't have to chose between this and Obie.

OK .. and what a two-faced, manipulative -itch she is, Beltway -itch. I wonder if she was paid under the table, in funds or goods, by some cretin to do that.

"I believe that they would have eliminated slavery within a few years for a combination of economic and moral reasons, and we would have reunified in less time than the fifteen years that the war and reconstruction required."

Wow. The scariest part of your entire novel is that you might actually believe this. Remarkable.

Keep praying! I’m not willing to support another GWB or worse position on illegal immigration! No way and no thanks!

I have to wonder also. She’s the one who assured both Sarah and McCain that Couric was a *fan*. She was an insider, lying source for that horrid book, too and yet Hannity keeps her on his TV show. Disgusting.

They won’t be celebrating for long.

I agree...like Egypt they will just come under another Islamic dictator gang of thugs....only I believe worse than Gaddafi. At any rate...we'll be hopefully out of there. Seems Obama's planning to speak once all is confirmed...I can see him taking bows for his part already. Golly he's such an egomaniac.

Palin asked that she not be written in - there was a thread on it.
