There is NO WAY she is going to be anyone’s running mate, unless they are intent on losing. I believe there is no chance Perry would ever pick Palin. Never going to happen. But you are right—the speculation will happen.
I think if she really wanted to run, she would already be running. I think her life is good now and maybe she just doesn’t want the aggravation. I don’t think being president is much fun, especially now days.
Yep.
She will announce that she’s indeed “running”...she’s going to do a 5k on Labor..

Another self-inflicted wound. Although she has been abused like no one else by the msm, some of her problems are her own. How hard would it have been to say, “Katie, as Governor of Alaska I constantly get news from public officials before it’s reported. So although I do read the local Alsakan papers and the WSJ, most of the time the things I read aren’t news to me anymore.” Or, “Katie, being Governor of Alaska does give me a unique insight to foreign affairs because Russia is not an abstraction to us, it’s our neighbor. And we ahve to deal with it on a variety of issues. The same goes for AK’s relationship with America’s largest trading partner, Canada.” Or not have Kate Freakin Goslein on your reality tv show.
That’s what I’m thinking (”they lied”), and waiting to see how it plays out. At first reaction this was a “Oh Noes!!!”. But, she’ll be at other events “nearby”, and sounds like maybe another one to replace the one she is declining. (If this story is true.)
“Ya know, this is the kind of stuff we’re trying to get rid of in Washington - the “politics as usual”. Mr. Obama campaigned on that - but it’s not his version that I want. And I’m pretty sure that the great folks of Iowa, and across America don’t want it either.
I fought this cronyism up in Alaska, and we should have to put up with it in politics ANYWHERE.”
I know someone very close to this and this person is as honest as they come.
This is a very sad situation for some very good people.
See my post 41 re: the completely idiotic notion that Palin will be considered, let alone chosen, as a VP nominee again.
Ping, seems you and I were right (as usual...)
Go to the event......it was just reported that the event is still on with Palin as speaker....seems that this story is B.S. (there were some problems but the organizer got things cleared up....Scott Conroy tweeted that this story is bull!
No evidence of this on the conservatives4palin website, uses anonymous “sources”.
Looks like a phony story to me.
‘zackly.
There is no mention of this at C4P. Should we consider the possibility that this blog is BS?
I liked Palin, but I already went to the dance with Bachmann.
