Why? He makes some good points, and I speak as someone who liked Sarah Palin, but was disappointed in the way she kept stringing people along about her decision whether or not to run. She had quite a few years to decide whether she’d run for president, never understood why she kept needing more time. My guess is, she wanted to keep the spotlight on her as long as possible.
Agreed!
I agree with that...that was a “tease”..will she? won’t she?,, even her daughter was brought into the ambivalence.
I’ve felt the exact same thing for more than a year now.
I have to say I used to have a very good opinion of her, but that non-candidacy bus tour of hers was for what purpose? To go on tour, raise money and then say no is just plain erratic behavior that jerked a lot of people around. The TV show also was pretty good, but politically it made no sense. Resigning the governorship because she was being attacked just didn't quite figure either.
I'm not even sure what Sarah Palin is. A candidate? No. A commentator? Sort of. A powerful force for change? No because she hasn't tried. At this point I just have Palin fatigue.
Not to mention keeping those fund-raising dollars rolling in.
I am with you. Ziegler was a true believer for years and his point by point gripes seems legit. I too would love to know where the money taken in on that last plea from the PAC before she decided not to run will go.
.” My guess is, she wanted to keep the spotlight on her as long as possible.”
I think you’re right. I have been an avid fan of Sarah’s ever since the convention. She won my heart with her “talk like me” style. I, honest to God, thought we were experiencing the first female POTUS. She taught me one thing over the course of three years. Don’t be avid until it it counts. Look at the Cainiacs. They made utter fools of themselves too. Now he wants another shot at the limelight and former Cainiacs are saying, Yay! Where do we send the check?
I was never for Cain. I saw or heard something from him that I didn’t like early on. I wish Sarah had endorsed Governor Perry when Cain was accusing him of everything but murder. I wish Sarah had stepped up and been bold. Two all-American Governors praising America? It would have been one heck of a tonic. The time has passed. I still love her and I’m glad we experienced her. It was great. That said, I don’t care who she endorses now.
She strung people along by saying she wasn’t going to run and then she went and...
Didn’t run.
How dare she.
She never became my candidate, as my support for her was always conditional on her dropping McAmnesty, which never happened.
I’m with you...the whole bus thing soured me.
After that I pined away for Paul Ryan.
I’ll say this...these candidates put their names out there - their money - and they are stepping up to attempt to rid this nation of an abomination of a “presidency”
I will always remember who stepped up....and who didn’t.
He strung himself along and made a fool of himself!

My guess is, she wanted to keep the spotlight on her, , her PAC donations, hype her TV realty series, publicize her book, plug the biographical movie "Undefeated"... as long as possible.
