Quit on her? Hey, she quit on US!

She made her choice, and she needs to stick by that choice. Any attempt at this stage to get her to enter the race is bound to fail.

Am I the only person here that remembers Ross Perot? Granted, he was before the Internet, but everyone was saying the same things about Ross that we have been saying about Sarah. He’s a maverick! He’s a visionary! He’s an outsider! He’ll take Washington by storm and whip their political butts into line!

But he choked.

He dropped from the race — and then he made things worse by trying to get back into it, but by that time no one (except for the late night comedians) was paying any attention.

I stand by my analysis. Sarah has damaged her brand too badly at this point for her to be a candidate during this election cycle. Period. It’s not going to happen.

If she doesn’t want to endorse and actively support Cain, she needs to drop off the radar for a while while the people who are serious get busy with the important business of selecting our candidate.

You're a longtimer so you do know the whole "ninjas on my lawn" thing was self-orchestrated so he wouldn't win, right? That he was polling a 2-in-1 chance at an upset (pre-ninjas); that he didn't want the job -- at all; that the whole thing was to put the screws to Pappy, which he did.

"But he choked."

Exactly correct, biggest choke I have ever seen, Perot had a real chance of winning, a real chance but then he dropped out and no one, well very few, took him seriously when he got back in. The same thing would happen to Sarah were she try and get back in. Sadly her moment has come and gone.

The only “brand” that’s damages around here is the “brand” fair-weather Palin former supporters.

They turn my stomach.

PC = Palin Critic

I don’t care if your “brand” is chosen Matthews or ronin.
