Karl Rove, a former advisor to President George W. Bush, said on Fox News Saturday morning that he thinks former Alaska Gov. and 2008 Republican vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin will enter the 2012 presidential race around Labor Day.
Palin has a schedule next week that looks like that of a candidate, not a celebrity, Rove said, adding that Palins campaign-style video released when she traveled to the Iowa State Fair makes it look like shell make a run for the White House.

Palin is schedule to speak at a Tea Party of America-sponsored event in Iowa on September 3, which was just moved to a bigger location to host a larger crowd.
This is her last chance. She either gets in or gets out. I think she gets in, Rove said.
A late announcement always raises questions about whether a candidate has the time to raise money, build an organization and meet voters face-to-face, the Washington Examiners Byron York writes.
But Rove addressed that issue on Fox: [Palin] thinks the normal rules dont apply. If youre Sarah Palin, you just show up and the money comes and the organization comes and the people come.

They also are terrified because they have been trying for over four years to find a chink in her armor; anything. So far, she is an American living the American dream and it confounds the media and D.C.
Once she announces, she's getting a piece of every one of my pay checks until she takes office.
I wish Karl Rove would go away.
Last night on the Jim Lehrer Report, the panel talked about candidates who might still get in the race. There was Rudy and Ryan and Christie but no mention of Palin. Like Lord Voldemort, she is the woman whose name can not be said.
Her announcement will require them to say it and they will be shocked to see what happens. Expect them to go crying to Jeb to save them.
LOL!
I don’t think Sara asks anyone for permission but, I do think they discussed her run as a married couple would.
They respect each other and seem to move as a team.
I liked Fred, still do. But I don't think it was the late entry so much as the attitude like HE was doing US a favor. The guy had problems showing that fire in the belly.
What a brillant statement!
Not!
No, he’s a Romney guy. He hates Perry.
I think Rove will go for Romney, it’s his turn and he’s a RINO.
Watch it happen, Karl. And when it does, consider what it means when a candidate can do that. It means the rules have changed. Game on.
Love it!
Respond back ‘Donating to Palin’.

Guess what, Yorkie? She already has several national and local grassroots organizations. They are called O4P, C4P, Tea Parties,etc., and they number in multiple millions! As for money, I predict that her funds, within days after her announcement, will add up to more than all the other Repubs combined!
I, for one, am a member of all of these groups, and on THE DAY, I'll send far more than I can really afford. Rove, I hate to add, is right for once.
I voted for Fred in the 2008 primary in CT, He got 538 votes out of 151,604.
I voted my conscience.
She's not only going to kick the Demokratik Socialist Parties A$$, but also GOP establishment POS like Beohner and McConnell! The establishment types like the two mentioned and others are almost as big of threat as the Socialists themselves, because these fools are willing to compromise with evil.
FUJB! FUMM!
Dana Perino has a lot of hate for Palin. Perino also has a voice cadence that drives me bonkers, plus she talks so bloody fast can understand nothing she says, as if that matters.
Click the pic the minute she announces. She will raise millions on the first day! Rove be damned.
She knows what she is doing. She is a true leader. Believe me.
I’ve been saving one dollar bills for over a year,have two of the Maxwell house square coffee jugs stuffed hard,can’t wait till the day i count it and promptly give it to Sarah,going to be the best investment i’ve ever made in my life. .....other than my Jack Russel Bandit.
If so, that DEFINITELY makes him a RINO!
