I agree with him that she was only pretending to run, seemed fairly obvious to me.

Trump did the same thing, the whole time he was still under contract at NBC for his stupid “reality” show.

I remember when she resigned as Governor, choosing not even to finish the term and forgo reelection like Romney did. I thought “well that’s it”. Much to my surprise everyone started telling me that no, it was a “brilliant” move that only confirmed she’d be running for President.

The fantasy continued long past the point when anyone could have entered the race and had a chance, for some it continued all the way up until Romney won the majority of delegates. Perry’s entry in August was about the latest possible for a modern election where the campaigning starts earlier and earlier.

I appreciate her lending support to conservative candidates ,her endorsements are mostly good, with some glaring exceptions like McLame, I agree with all them so far this year.

I think she enjoys the “conservative celebrity” role and won’t be returning to office-seeking, there has been no indication of anything else. Wishing won’t make it so or else it would have worked last time.

This business of lending support is a good effort. We know from FRee Republic that the slightest taint is adequate to inflame the aginners.

When there is a Sarah endorsement, any taint is blotted and the purity is restored or at least covered up.

She there fore serves a broader, more useful purpose that might be better for all than being elected. That is good

Well what is fairly obvious to me with 20 20 hindsight is that she intended to run and did exactly what she said, never promising anyone anything. I have yet to have anyone show me proof otherwise. She seems to have surveyed the situation and found that a significant portion of what should have been her natural base spent their time either clinging to every MSM hit job or, like a number of Freepers, took an active role in helping libs spread the PDS. Things like helping spread the ‘she quit meme’ without ever taking into consideration the context of that decision.

It’s also obvious that the people who treated this proven conservative of record like a pariah at the libs’ bidding, -also- took it upon themselves to vote for the most liberal ‘Republican’ to ever disgrace the campaign trail...never once having it occur to themselves that the reason they got stuck with Mr. Severe Conservative in the first place was their own actions in helping to sideline actual conservatives throughout the primaries.

We heard lots of hype for Rino Rick the anti fence/pro HPVaccine for kids without parental consent guy. Hell, there were even ‘conservatives’ agreeing with Romney’s abortion stances (the pre election stances he held for decades and gave his cash to). We watched as Cain got the Palin treatment and ‘Conservatives’ rushed to believe the Allred chick who VANISHED after her job was done. The now seem to have forgotten all about that...

We listened to people make every excuse for RINOs at best, whose policies and positions were not a fraction as conservative as Palin, yet were wholly excused and forgiven their ‘lesser evils’. Abd boy howdy did they scream when some people refused to play along with their fantasy world.

But I just can’t for the life of me see why Palin looked at all that and likely said “Pound salt”.

The funny part is, that we don’t really know why. I dont, you don’t...no one but her/family does. We speculate. But what we do know is every bit of the rest of my post is factual and documented right here on the pages of FR.
