Palin bus tour to roll into Iowa
CNN ^ | 08/10/2011 | Peter Hamby

After a nearly three-month hiatus, former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin is planning to crash the presidential party once again with a heartland-themed re-launch of her "One Nation" bus tour this week in Iowa, according to a Palin fundraising email obtained by CNN.

Palin is bringing her Constitution-themed bus to the Iowa State Fair, just 30 miles south of where the Republican presidential field will take the stage on Thursday for a presidential debate in Ames.

It's not yet clear which day the tour will begin, but her surprise arrival in Iowa will happen before the closely watched Ames straw poll. Palin is not on the straw poll ballot.

According to a video link included the fundraising email for Palin's political action committee, it appears the bus will also take Palin to Missouri and Illinois to visit the respective hometowns of former presidents Harry Truman and Ronald Reagan.

"The heartland is perfect territory for more of the One Nation Tour as we put forth efforts to revitalize the fundamental restoration of America by highlighting our nation's heart, history, and founding principles," Palin writes in the email.

Tim Crawford, the treasurer, confirmed the authenticity of the email but would not provide more the details about the tour.

Sarah Palin is simply unstoppable. I love the way she is tweaking the leftmedia and keeping her base energized as she moves toward an announcement. I just hope it comes soon.

>>>Why would she be in Iowa?

State Fair opens tomorrow - great place to take the kids and eat some deep fried butter on a stick...

Then show up for post-debate critiques on FoxNews live from the venue... Then maybe throw Perry under the bus by announcing she’s gonna run before he gets the chance to upstage Iowa Republicans...

Sarah Palin again sucking all the oxygen out of IOWA! LOL.

The press will be covering her every second. She'll get all the headlines and won't have to pay a dime for them.

Palin bus tour part deux. Liberal heads exploding all over America.

And some said she was “stupid”? More like BRILLIANT!

Not at the Wisconsin State Fair. There you just get beaten with a stick.
