My betting is that she bows out after a disappointiing fourth place in Iowa and throws her support to Perry. Both Bachmann and Perry will be throwing all their support, and actively campaigning for Palin after the three quarter pole.

I agree. Poor babies having tantrums because the ice cream isn’t cming fast enough.
That was one of the most pathetically whining posts that I’ve seen on FR.

Perhaps she was paid. If she was she probably donated the money as she has in the past.There has been unfair things printed about Palin and her speakers fee and because she is not running she may still get paid.As far as she MAY be better as Energy Sec or VP; if you read the thread that I watched Undefeated you will watch the common sense break down of WHY myself and others see this as a possibility.She MAY be Perry's VP or energy sec.Sorry to disappoint you but just because I think strategically and honestly and in reality;out loud, in my thoughts does not make me believing the worst.If you are waiting to judge me on being on all Palin ping lists as my PROOF I support Palin. It is not going to happen because those ping lists are filled with more judgmental people than not in which I have seen the want of Perry supporters/PDSer’s banned, that don't think with a servants heart with humility as Palin does.They need to get thicker skin like Palin.
I would much rather spend my time on gunwalker and the latest Obama atrocities than please your disappointments.I can support Palin and not be in a cliquey ping list.I can support Palin and ask about her speakers fees.Maybe someone will read this and post she didn't get one or donated it?Even if she got a fee,I don't care.The speaker's fee was a critical small part of my thinking before I watched the movie.Now it is trivial to what is going on in the big picture that is Palin. I get and respect her motives now now please stop judging mine.

Mr. Rollins not only attacked Gov. Palin about the same time that he took the job with Rep. Bachmann, but attacked Rep. Bachmann earlier in the year. Add Katherine Harris to Rollins' list of unacceptable female politicians. The pattern is clear.

It's a difficult word to spell but I think it fits Ed to a tee.

I’ll probably get some flak on this but I currently have no respect for either Party. The Democrats are fools that wish to turn us from the once greatest nation into a third world nation. The Republicans are basically about global corporatism who would prefer to turn us into a non-sovereign utopia for international corporate masters. I don’t care for either outcome.
Some might see this as a little extreme but that is the trend that I see. 2012 may end up as another election where we the people get tired of holding our nose, having no options, and no one comes out to vote. Perhaps that’s what the powers that be really want.

Until and unless Sarah Palin declares, Bachmann remains the most viable conservative in the race and my choice.
I'm not keen on choosing between a nice hair guy with an affection for open borders and a nice hair guy with an affection for socialized medicine.

Hiya TS! Hope all is well with you and your family!
Indeed, Ed Rollins certainly appears to characterize a misogynist. Even worse, he can't seem to keep his big trap shut after he quits these campaigns. I can't understand why anyone would hire this jerk knowing he has no respect for his clients or confidentiality. Rollins is worse than a whore.

We're fine. Life is good. Thanks for asking. Pray all is well with you guys.

Bachmann is doing way better than anyone thought and is a worthy candidate dont you think? No, she's not a worth candidate, for the reasons many of us have been pointing out from the get-go. It's nothing to do with "conservative credentials", it's all about having no track record of executive experience and leadership -- it's far too important of a job to take those qualities on hope and change faith.
Bachmann has performed exactly as I expected -- temporarily up at the top as the "flavor of the month" and as a placeholder for better qualified candidates. I'm not sold on Perry, but you can see what his entrance into the race did to Bachmann. Her "support" collapsed overnight and she'll be lucky to have enough money to even make it to Iowa; in other words, her previous showing proved that she was indeed a "placeholder" candidate.

I'd pick Cain over Bachmann if he could get any traction. I heard him on the Michael Savage show last night and he was awesome. The trouble is most voters are not intelligent enough to connect with people like Herman Cain.
Potentially, I think he could be heard, but the election is 15 months away and I just don't see him getting the traction necessary to be competitive.

To ReneeLynn : Berate SW Florida all you want but our grass roots team GOTCHA Marco Rubio. I am just telling you what the current situation is on Sarah Palin in Florida. IMHO she woulld not carry the Sunshine State. ..... not2worry Sarah Palin would not carry Iowa either.
Sean Hannity asks a Republican crowd in Iowa, "Do You Want Sarah Palin To Enter The Presidential Race?"
The Palin supporters spend so much time in an Echo Chamber of their own creation that they have totally lost touch with the rest of America.
I never supported Bachmann because I saw Bachmann as an extremely weak candidate (zero executive experience). Be that as it may, Bachmann actually got into the Arena. She got beat but, at least, she competed.
In the minds of the Palin supporters, the candidate in actual competition will never match the candidate in their imagination.
If you took all the girls I knew
When I was single
And brought them all together for one night
I know they'd never match
My sweet imagination

>>Folks in SW Florida are getting a little tired of Sarah Palins campaign style, if that is what it’s considered.
More and more folks just want a candidate that wants to be President and not one that seems to be making a game out of what her intentions are.
If she runs I don’t think her ratings will be high in Florida. She would have been better declaring early, participating in the debates and being an official candidate in the Iowa Straw vote.
JMHO from a redneck from the Sate of Florida.
From NWFL here... It’s not a game. It’s very serious, calculated strategy on how best to beat the profound evil called LIBERALISM (Marxism) that engulfs our nation, media, education, etc. Palin saw this first-hand in 2008. She is very smart, has street smarts, and good political instincts. I absolutely 100& trust her re: timing of her entry.
