Palin: Wait a While Longer (Sun Tzu: You choose the battlefield, not your opponent)
Washington WIre ^ | 09/29/2011 | Danny Yadron

In case you were wondering, Sarah Palin has no plans to announce tomorrow whether she’ll run for president .

“This is a serious decision, and I’ve engaged in serious deliberations. So within the next 24 hours don’t look for me to make a decision,” she said, according to excerpts of an interview on Fox Business Network set to air tonight.

Being that would be after the deadline to be on the ballots in Iowa, SC, NH, and FL ....

I didn't know what the deadlines were but I figured she should wait as long as possible just to mess with the Liberals.

One problem is she is eroding support from other conservatives like Cain. I sent a donation to Cain today because among other reasons, I am not going to wait for Palin to make up her mind while the media are trashing Cain for not having enough money (pretty much their exact words after his FL win).

“I’m starting to feel she’s just stringing people along.”

Then,You know absolutly nothing about her.Learn,research.Don’t be fooled by the corprate media.Read Sun Tzu,read Sarah’s books.LISTEN to what she says.We have a perfect opportunity here to begin the cleanup of this nation.Sarah,seems to me,ready,willing,and able to pick up that first piece of trash.Inspiring others to join the team and get it done.

She’ll drive the media crazy if she never announces at all and then simply magics her way into office by the sheer magnitude of her palintastic sarahness.

Good Point.....always funny to see what the gossip of the country is at the Thanksgiving table. The most funny ( and sad for our country) was the year Norm MacDonald was on the tip of everyone’s tongue for saying the N word.

It is a fabulous stategy.....get the whole country talking about you.

Sarah has been stockpiling lots of money, almost like a... dare I say it?

War chest.

Herb is fine, but he simply is not as well-prepared as Sarah.

To win wars, you must prepare far in advance.

Sarah is not a frivolous woman. She is going to do EXACTLY what it takes to accomplish her goals. No more, no less.

And at the opportune moment.

I like Cain, and whether he succeeds or fails will be up to him, not Palin. Would he have done better, do you think, if he was competing with Palin last week?

My choice: Palin/Cain. Then all we need to do is take scissors to the old McCain/Palin bumper stickers. That would save a few bucks. Assuming that McCain hasn’t eaten them all by that time in his frustration.

Iowa is a caucus so no deadline, but the point is still valid for the rest.

Not only will the liberals be having fits, but the Republican elites will as well. Not to mention those on this forum who want her to announce, or not, on THEIR timetable.

Sarah Palin is strong enough to win as an independent. Some Rinos will not support her. She can get the Reagan democrats and the conservative republicans and the vote would be 44% Palin, 22% Romney, 31% Obama, and Nader 3%.

She is Ronald Reagan with a nice pair of legs!

Look for her to go rogue!

She has read it and understands it.....Anyone who enters this race better have or they don’t stand a chance in hell with the globalists in control of so much including MSM and perceptions of the useful idiots.

Liberal heads exploding around the Thanksgiving Dinner table...

High-fives around the no tofu anything, real gravy, pecan pie, celery-n-cream cheese sticks, real butter soaked mashed potatoes, turkey with cornbread stuffing AND a ham tables.

One, Sarah has in fact read Sun Tzu.

Two, Sarah actually understands what Sun Tzu had to say.

Reminds me of what someone said about Marx:

If you read Marx, you become a Marxist.

If you UNDERSTAND Marx, you become an anti-Marxist.

I don’t think they’ll have fits having to wait. They think she won’t run because they’ve thrown so much at her. They’ll have fits when she announces. I also hope it’s on the 30th of October or so. Late Nov. is probably not tenable. Many deadlines will have passed by then, including FL, NH and SC.

There are no deadlines to enter the IA or the NV caucuses. Aside from that, your assertion is correct.

Yes, I think it will be right around that time.

We'll just sit here in this pumpkin patch and see the Great Palin with our own eyes. . . .

The heads of turkeys exploding? There would be some poetic justice in that, wouldn’t there?

Engineer: Couldn’t he just do it in the suit?

Von Braun: It might be dangerous. To introduce liquid into the pure oxygen environment of the pressure suit and the capsule could cause a short circuit. It could start a fire.
No...tell him he cannot.

Cooper: Say listen ole’ buddy...We promise we’ll stop at the next gas station and recommend you remain in a holding pattern until then.

Many people have already made up their mind who they are voting for regardless if she runs or not...

I don’t see people who have put their heart and soul into candidates like Cain or Perry and Bachmann dumping them just because Sarah Palin decides to enter the race....

It just does not matter what Sarah Palin does to many Conservative voters, unless it is the ones that are just sitting waiting for her to make up her mind...
