Yeah, she has to leave Alaska to get away from a stalker that the authorities won’t do a damned thing about, so now, she isn’t an Alaska resident, according to a RAT!

As much as I generally like Palin, if I lived in Alaska, I would have 2nd thoughts about voting for her in any election... She chose to bail on the governor’s office after being elected. What’s to keep her from doing the same in the US Senate?

The Establishment Republicans in Alaska are about the only people for whom Sarah Palin has no “profile”. She looms large wherever she goes and earns respect and even grudging admiration among just about every demographic EXCEPT the E-Republicans.

You don’t want to make the Mama Grizzly Bear angry.

LOL, yeah she’s under the radar all right. If she runs, watch how much Soros type money gets pumped in there to stop her.

What a joke! What would you have done then if your enemies were bankrupting you for doing your job? Every turn they would sue her and it was costing her family and the state money and back then Sarah wasn’t rich according to politican standards. You come here with this I like Sarah crap but then spew that she abandon her state but you seem to not know what was going on and can’t offer what you would have done differently

I think she’s doing a great job backing conservative candidates for the House and Senate. Nothing wrong with being a highly paid kingmaker. Ask Ted Cruz.

The former governor “has no profile in Alaska. She’s not active,” says a Republican consultant familiar with Alaska politics.

Translation: The Republican money men in Alaska won't back her, even if she is popular. She got up too many noses as Governor.

Shame on you for repeating that lie. She resigned as governor because of the expense of all the frivolous lawsuits that were being brought against her. She would not have the same problem in the senate. But I have a big problem with you no knowing the facts!

The National Review only likes Eastern establishment candidates. This is just another example.

I'm not shocked that the Club for Growth is not enthusiastic. Their sitting out the fight against “immigration reform” suggests that Palin may be a little too populist for that crowd.

As far as I'm concerned, someone as uninformed as you shoudn't be voting in the first place. Leave voting to people who actually DO THEIR HOMEWORK.

She had a 70% approval rating as Governor before the drive-by media went to town on her.

You’ve been around long enough to know that Gov Palin was driven from her governorship by Rat operatives filing endless law suits against her. She had to pay for her defense out of her own pocket and was bankrupted by legal fees. Her only escape from finical ruin was resigning. IIRC correctly she was $500,000 in debt when she resigned.
