IT'S COME TO THIS: Could Sarah Palin Could Get Back In The Race?
Business Insider ^ | November 8, 2011 | Glynnis MacNicol

Things are so bad for the GOP and/or Republicans are so turned off by the idea that Mitt Romney is their only viable option rumors have once again surfaced that Sarah Palin could get back in the race.

Yes.

NYT numbers expert Nate Silver thinks there's a slim chance she could pull it off.

One major constraint is that the filing deadline has already passed in New Hampshire, South Carolina and Florida. So a candidate who entered now could not get her name on the ballot in those states, although some states, like New Hampshire, allow for write-in votes.

However, the candidate could participate in caucuses, including the Jan. 3 caucus in Iowa and the February caucuses in Maine, Nevada, Colorado and Minnesota, which do not have rigid filing deadlines.

She would also potentially be able to participate in the primaries in Arizona and Michigan on Feb. 28, which are the next primaries following a four-week gap after Florida....

I haven't not reconsidered jumping back into the thought of entering the race. But I was considering accusing Cain of sexually harassing me.

Poor choice of words at this juncture.

RE :”Now tht one brings a chuckle.

You are not doing a very good job of stroking my shallow male ego here indybabe, ref comment #10

Admit it, who else besides me has such a complete handle on the subject material and is able to put it together in such creative and funny (satire) posts? I really like that 1/2 post freeper, but I think I am putting him to shame :)

I try not to spend too much time wishing for things that have no chance of happening, that is one of them, always was.

I wish someone would give me LOTs of money with no strings attached.

RE :"You miss her, admit it."

Well the last few weeks from early September to early October was a blast for me. I was even posting C4P threads. You see any others tagged as PDSers and on the PDS watch freepmail enemies list (speculating here) posting C4P threads?? I even sent a few into a tizzy by joking that SP should run third party.

Every week she dragged it out was making it more fun to see.

Thanks BufordP! Really do not want to go there ... other than to say, should Sarah change her mind (Sarah was my first choice) I would listen. Doubting the report (of Sarah reconsidering) is true though. If we couldn’t laugh at ourselves, where would we be?

RE :"What is your home address ?

Posting that in a comment might bring me stuff other than $$$.

Remember the fruitloop who told me he was going to track me down personally under the username 'SOL" ?? He actually told me that he was watching me personally and he found a SOL at the Amazon website and that was me. (Why would anyone use SOL as a Amazon username?? LOL), It was the craziest stuff I ever read, too crazy to even complain about.

You miss the point... I don’t join threads if I feel the subject matter is pointless. PDSers and those similarly disposed love to do just that. Why?

I’m L8 to the party I know, haven’t Freeped in a a few days.

This sillyness annoyed me at first but I took a step back and am now amused.
