Palin’s choice, she can stay on the sidelines making millions a year or she can groom her career to run for President.

IMO, she is going for the sidelines.

Here they go again, the lame stream media trying to pick the GOP candidate, by defining the field for lame brains to pick from.

Time to think for ourselves.

If she was going for the sidelines, she would be accepting every speaking fee, which she is not by a long shot. If she wanted to make money, she could have had her own television show like Huckabee and could have made ten times as much money as she has made.

Palin’s choice will be as, it always has been: Country first.

Or if things are headed the way they look to be headed she will be offered her blindfold and cigarette along with the rest of us.

h/t to Lurker. (:

Most of the polls at this stage match her against Mitt Romney and Mike Huckabee. Many of them, including the Democrat poll, PPP, include Romney and Huckabee and fairly consistently place Romney in the lead in a three way race.

This tells you more about the polls and pollsters than it does about reality.

Here is a dose of reality. Romney will never be president, and neither will Huckabee. If either one ever was, they'd enact half of Obama's agenda and call it conservatism, but we're safe, because neither one will ever be president.

Now lets take it one step further while we're at it. If the GOP were to nominate another McCain in the person of Huck or Romney, it would fracture the GOP perhaps for good. The Left wants this, of course, and Romney is so convinced that its his turn that he won't see it coming and won't care anyway.

The problem with those polls is that they do not comport with reality. The Lamestream media is in deep denial about her intentions, but they absolutely know that she is formidable. Their objective is to try to demoralize her supporters with phony polls. What I intend to do is to give the lie to their phony information and point to incontrovertible facts, both current and historical.

Agree, cash is not all.

remember John Connally, 1980 GOP candidate
what was it? $12 million for a single delegate?

SP should get the nomination easily against the expected field if she wants it and of course works hard and debates well.

Agreed. If Huck or Romney were nominated, it would be a win/win for the left. They would probably lose, as you say, but if they did not, they would be people the left could “work with.” After they enacted the half of Obama’s agenda, they would be swept out in favor of another Obama, who would finish the country off.

I was polled friday night, well sort of....

The computer gave me about 7 republican choices and obama to pick from, Palin was NOT mentioned, so I answered "I prefer another person".

The computer thanked me and hung up.

I don't know who the polling service was but it was apparent they have decided who they want and it was not Palin.

The idea, that you either run for president or you make millions on the sidelines is a false one.

Former presidents and former presidential candidates make millions, too.

Not that she probably ever considered it, she could be a movie star making millions. At this point, she could become a Libturd hero if she would just give up politics. But it is country first. Of course no one knows if she is running, but from her resignation speech in July and her remembrance of visiting soldiers who sacrifice so much for this country, I read into this a commitment on her part to do all she could for them and the rest of us, respecting their sacrifices by offering up herself.

Talk about ignoring the obvious. The poor fools in the lamestream media actually think people pay attention to them. They tried hard to marginalize Reagan in the late 1970s without success. Now you have talk radio and cable TV and the internet. Their feeble push polls are like spittin’ in the ocean. But they can’t help themselves. They have to try.

How do you like your crow served? I want to jot it down for future reference. Say, about November 5th, 2012.
