It has occurred to me that Palin could simply “allow” her name to be pu as the deadlines come up.

Not if she wants to run in the Republican primaries.

That would be consistent with what I have seen so far, that’s for sure.

No, it isn't. People writing in Sarah's name for straw polls is different from a primary ballot.

Does anyone know that? Does a filing in a state for that state’s Presidential primary typically require a signature of the person whose name will be on the ballot?

The Republican Party of South Carolina cannot add Sarah's name to the state's Republican primary ballot without her explicit application.

Each state has different filing requirements for political parties that nominate by convention/caucus (R's & D's) and each state party has its own filing requirements/forms.

Well, I guess Halloween is then, in fact, a drop dead deadline, as it were.

It will be an interesting month....
