She has to measure the resistence/support she is getting from the Party. She knows that the rest of the field is lackluster, although who can tell who will break away. A lot depends on events. Timing is everything.

“I say let her run. Let the voters decide.”

Absolutely!

Arapaio as DHS, Mark Levin as AG and Me as the First Masseuse for Sarah’s weary body.

She doesnt have an obligation to run? Given this country’s mess?

Sexism is no myth. Male pols are very competitive and they hate the idea of competing with women, especially competitive women. And Palin is that. The rap on Hilary was that she was a “wife,” but she is tougher than Bill is.

From the article:

"She's not really creative," said Swain Shepperd, a retiree from Rock Hill. "She just repeats what's already been said by others."

Don’t want to push this too far, but she has never had a moment’s doubt of her ability to handle any office, probably not since she was elected mayor. She is an instinctual politician, like FDR. How good she is, we will soon find out.

Palin has poise, personality, and perspective. She also has a gift for for memorable phrases.
Bachmann lacks.

Bachmann is clearly angling for the VP position. The delicate cat fight between these two is unfolding.

Yeah, I’m thinking this may be pissant’s opus. IBTZ?

PS pissant, you really did name yourself appropriately.

What does “Even” mean? All the blue-blood ruling class GOP’ers are against her.

Oh Gads...Duncan Hunter?!

Sorry, but I’ll wager anybody, if Palin announced her candidacy, she would literally suck the oxygen out of the room...I’m convinced of this. If she decides to run...she’ll be the GOP nominee.

I am tending to agree. It is next to impossible to get good public polling data. By the way the Dems are behaving, one can reasonable assume that the internals are returning different results than the alphabet polls are.

Good point but it must be a complicated decision. I will certainly be more than a little disappointed if she doesn’t.

You done screwed up Gail. Bachmann is twice as conservative as Precious.

By the looks of it Ace, you're digging yourself another deep little hole on this thread tonight.

Dig on pissant, dig on, use a bigger shovel even.....LOL!

Maybe you should check out this article:

http://www.examiner.com/sarah-palin-in-national/palin-will-keynote-india-today-conclave-march

You might notice that there is at least one very important group that cares what she thinks about the world political situation. Especially note that they did not ask Mitt Romney to speak.

Sarah is great...but I think Alan West or Herman Cain would be really outstanding presidential candidates.
