Take it for what you will...posted on Mark's page just now: BREAKING: GOVERNOR SARAH PALIN TELLS MARK LEVIN SHE IS NOT RUNNING FOR PRESIDENT IN 2012.
Thank you.
I think your analysis is correct. I like Cain, but he has no, meaning NO, political or governing experience and would be a horrible choice. But I think the reason he has been sucking up to Romney is because he wants to be VP, and that’s probably how Romney will get support from some people who would not otherwise support him.
I think Perry would probably be the best (although I really didn’t like him very much initially) and would also get the fabled “independent” votes, because he’s an alternative without being something so radically base-oriented that an “independent” would get freaked out.
He’s a conservative overall and obviously would give us smaller, less intrusive government, get rid of a lot of restrictions on our economic development, also supports traditional American values, and would present a clear alternative to Obama.
Romney presents no alternative, and therefore even the independents wouldn’t vote for him. And most of the GOP who gets out and works the polls and really makes the voting happen wouldn’t vote for him either. I say that as someone who works for the GOP candidate every time, and even did so with McCain - but I wouldn’t work for Romney.
CAN WE ALL UNITE BEHIND CAIN AND TAKE OUT OBAMA AND THE LEFTIST IN TRASH IN 2012 EVERYONE?????
COME ON - TIME TO GET THIS DONE.
Exactly what did Cain say that was so “racially tinged”?
Famous line from Animal House.
I hear ya. Not going to happen.
She doesn’t want the job, yet you’ll still vote for her.
She played you, just as I said she was doing all along.
The democrats are very disappointed.

Maybe. But Maybe not. Palin would have siphoned votes from the Dems real GOP candidate.
Mitt Obomney.
Agreed. Sarah would not want to appear as "second banana" a second time. Either she goes all in or she stays on the more lucrative sidelines as a potential king maker. Easier on the family.
Truer words never typed. Agree 100%.
I haven’t seen Palin supporters attacking the other conservatives in the race, Santorum, Cain, and Bachman. I have seen a lot of attacks by them on the RINOs, especially Perry and Romney.
Cain is the obvious arch-conservative choice at this juncture....
Well I bet the Fox News managemwent will be mighty pissed she did not announce this on THIER network. Especially Hannity and crowd. I think this will free up alot of money that folks were planning to donate to Palin and maybe Cain or Perry might get a bit of that money. Perhaps the money people were going to donate to Christie will go to Romney now and that in a nutshell will be your GOP 2012 battle.
There is no Republican, including Ron Paul or the Mittster, that I would not vote for over Obama. But that said, I plan to support and work for Herman Cain and/or Rick Perry, whoever has the best shot of stopping Willard.
Palin will help us cement a Republican majority in the House and a fillibuster-proof majority in the Senate and a CONSERVATIVE in the White House!!!
Well I for one will NEVER vote for Mitt Perry. I will vote third party if I must vote. In my view Mitt Perry will be just as bad as Obummer but in a different way. Either one of these three still have almost the same goal and that is to turn America into a socialist country. For now I'll be pulling hard for Herman Cain. Go Mr Cain.
The last thing I wanted to do was hold my nose for another election. So disappointed.
Well, I suppose this isn't much surprise to the people of Alaska???
