I like Palin way more than Romney.

I don’t like Palin stringing the conservative base along as she sells book and gets speaking fees.

Thanks for the ping, bd476!

I think that Governor Palin will make public her decision about running for President VERY SOON.

(The decision itself, of course, was made the day that she resigned as Governor of Alaska -- if not before.)
While it can be great fun to speculate exactly where, when and how she will announce -- my current position is, that I'd like for her to surprise me.
I'm sure that she will. :o)

LMAO — she’s underscoring the stupidity of all the speculation about her not running and being “too late”

Ummm. What’s worse? Not being a candidate and getting speaking fees? Or BEING a candidate who is getting paid by the state that JUST elected him for NOT doing his job and has to pay for his security wherever he goes while campaigning?

“Sarah is no Reagan.”

None of them are Reagan, but which one of them has about as much charisma as Reagan - Palin!

Even though undeclared, Palin is doing better than Obama with the Independents.

Too bad your lap dog tricky ricky is a crony. I saw him on Hannity tonight. He had an ear piece whisperer telling him how to respond. So, not only is he a crony, he's also a phoney.

Apparently he seeks to be the next TOTUS. I heard him say "yes sir" in a totally different voice just before being asked a question by Sean. Now, was he responding "yes sir" prematurely to Sean? Or was it to his puppet master who was whispering in his ear, telling him what to say?

The negatives with this guy just keep adding on. Muslim bud who contributes heavily. Introduces muslim history and culture into public schools. Has a buddy builder who donates 2.5 million over the years, who owns him. The folly of gardasil, and his executive order. His COS leaves to work for Merck. A "former" liberal campaigning for Al Gore. He openly admits only the letter behind his name has changed. Supports and spends taxpayer dollars to educate illegals. And now, we have the horse whisperer.

Are you kiddin me? You can ignore all this, and more? How?

Why would selling books and getting speaking fees bother you? It is not illegal, immoral or even fattening. :)

Reagan didn’t declare until November, and look at how well that tunred out.

Obviously you didn't even bother to check the links for their dates. How LAZY are you?

Friday, August 12, 2011 - But she says she will decide by September. “Practically speaking,” Palin said Friday just outside the hog barn, “it has to be.” “I don’t want to be seen as or perceived as stringing people along.

Wednesday, 21 Sep 2011 - Palin May Not Decide on Running ‘Til After Sept. 30

Palin has a history of being a great debater in Alaska, and look how well she did with Biden.

EXACTLY why I want her to get in the debates!

If you are not personally a supporter of Sarah Palin’s, what difference does it make to you, or anyone else for that matter, when, or even IF she will announce?
It isn’t like we’re holding you by the butt or anything. You are free to go. Honest.

Hilarious - you found quotes. Nice going. But what does it mean, what does it mean?

OMG has she changed her mind?

OMG!

What are you, 12? If she announces, she announces. I don’t get it. If she changed her mind, that means .... what, exactly?

Oh, it’s going to be an unconventional election this time around!

Sarah Palin is being courted as a Democratic nominee!

Palin Predicts Primary Challenger for Obama
September 21, 2011

In an interview last night, Sarah Palin remained coy about her own 2012 intentions, but suggested that desperate Democrats would soon mount a primary challenger to Obama.

Excerpt from: http://www.nationalreview.com/corner/277856/palin-predicts-primary-challenger-obama-katrina-trinko#

When she said it was not going to be just any normal election, she very well may have meant that in more ways than ever thought possible!

“Obviously you didn’t even bother to check the links for their dates. How LAZY are you?”

Pretty damn lazy when it comes to your fascination with whether or not she changed her mind to announce. She has been saying it’s not a normal cycle, she’s looking at the field, she might not announce when expected, blah blah blah...

OMG! She changed her mind!

Which means what ecatly? No one can explain why it is such a big deal that she might be working this through, or playing us along. I don’t give a shit.

We don’t have a better candidate, in my opinion. I hope she runs.

But what about CHANGING HER MIND?

Well, what about it?

This is one of the more tiresome comments that’s perpetually posted here. What Reagan did about the timing of his announcement in 1979 is absolutely irrelevant. All of the caucuses and primaries have been moved forward significantly since 1980.

If it is accurate, as has been stated on these boards repeatedly, that the Florida presidential primary filing deadline is October 31, a November 13 announcement by Gov Palin or anyone else would be 2 weeks too late to file there. In ‘08, the GOP nominating process was all but over after Florida.

I don’t know your age, but in 1979 there was no 24/7 cable news, was no internet, no Free Republic; there was little conservative media beyond Buckley’s National Review, and only a nascent conservative movement. This is not 1979.

You're welcome, Ron. I agree.

Also I think that some people need to keep in mind that every single day, Palin is carrying the ball - this despite her not having made an announcement yet.

It's a power strategy. Those who might be uncomfortable with the strategy are aware that it's also a winning strategy.

For reference and perspective, I just posted this thread:

“If she can’t handle the debates then forget about it!”

Hahahahaha. You’re pretty funny, in a weird sort of hysterical way.
