When I was back in high school, a popular phrase was, “Get a clue.”
When it comes to media and everyone doubting whether Palin is running for president, I can only say, “Get a clue.”
Here are six CLUES for the doubters.

Very cool shirt! You don’t happen to have a link to where I can get one, do you?
I just can’t get into Michelle Bachmann. Sorry, I just can’t.
It's like the Germans thinking that the invasion was coming at the Pas de Calais. OK. Let them think that. Invade Normandy instead.
Excellent parallel, and I believe you've got your finger on her strategy. She's going to have to wait a good long time for them to become convinced that she's not getting in, though. Right now, I'm sure they're beefing up their defenses at the Pas de Calais for her imminent invasion.
The guessing and interminable waiting has got to be driving them nuts. Just like with her bus tour, she's not giving them a single clue about where she's going, or when she'll arrive there, even though they can clearly see her forces gathering.
On the other hand, the Dems are so arrogant, and such poor strategists, that they're probably relying on the slime from the mainstream press and their bogus polls for intel. In that case, they're blithely ignoring everything she's doing in plain sight, because no serious person actually thinks she's running.
Yep. They're mis-underestimating her, the same way they did Reagan.
Not only that, Bachmann wouldn't bring anything to the ticket that Palin doesn't already represent. More than anything, she'd be a solid ideological back-up, but not much else.
I also don't know how well she could (or would) wear the hat of guard dog, like most VPs do. There's the little matter of her letting her own dog attack Palin a few weeks back, to consider.
The more I look at the concept, the less I like it.
Friend, you're trying to sell a viewpoint to thousands of fellow conservatives who, for the most part, see things exactly the opposite to how you see them.
Palin is the most dynamic, exciting, and all around best qualified Republican that most of us have seen in a generation. Most of us think that she's the ONLY one who is assured a win over Obama in 2012.
Far from being the Goldwater you fear, we believe that she's the Reagan we have waited for decades to emerge.
There's also this... we can't afford to send another milquetoast Republican to the White House, and we cannot afford another four years of Marxist rule and devastation. This time, it's for all the marbles. It's now or never.
Paraphrasing Sarah (as she remarked to her daughter Piper), If we die, we die. If the country fails to elect Palin, we will begin an inexorable march toward a great upheaval, not unlike the Civil War, or the American Revolution, but it won't be because we didn't at least try to restore our nation in the agree-upon way.
I, for one, am willing to give the system one last try, and I refuse to subsume my honor and integrity to political expediency in that effort. That is why I will stand behind Sarah for as long as she'll have me.
If we don't make it to the top, then we go the other route, and I know she'll be right there with us.
She would most prefer to be the next Ronald Reagan (and, who wouldn't?), but I think she'd prefer thereafter to be the next Rush Limbaugh
Which is why she launched a nationwide star spangled bus tour, filmed a six part mini-series on Alaska, wrote countless articles attacking the Obama regime's policies, got under the regime's skin with tweet after tweet, hired a foreign policy expert, traveled abroad to visit with friends and allies, worked like the dickens to elect conservative candidates to Congress in the midterm elections, spoke at the Reagan Library, and reached out to Stephen Bannon to produce a film about her life and career, which is opening across the country in two weeks.
Yeah...all that, because she wants to be the next Limbaugh.
are everywhere.
LOL...yeah so I have learned!
Thank God for them, they stave off the onset of chaos.
You’re welcome.
ROFLMAO!!! You got that right! He'll be stankin up the White House "stacking the presidential cordwood!"
LMAO!!
8^D
Here are six CLUES for the doubters courtesy of GoldenPrez.
How many times, and ways, can I keep saying this until it finally sinks in?
SARAH PALIN IS RUNNING FOR THE REPUBLICAN NOMINATION FOR PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES, and has been doing so for, at least, the past 2 years.
This decision, by Mrs. Palin and her family, was made immediately before she resigned as Governor of Alaska. In fact, it was one of the principle reasons for her resignation.She knew, as anyone who analyzes that decision, that she could not run for the Presidency while fighting off the frivolous lawsuits of her enemies for 2 years.
She knew she needed to be free to travel the U.S. and connect with the American people. Which she has done exceptionally well.
That decision, was the start of her “campaign.”
One need only ask some basic questions to determine Mrs. Palin’s intentions.
1 – For what reason would Mrs. Palin insert herself into the 2010 election cycle? Why go out of her way to “endorse” local candidates all over the United States? And mostly TEA Party and grassroots conservative candidates?
2 – For what reason would Mrs. Palin take her entire family on a “bus tour” of historic sites around the United States? The key here is the BUS. If she wanted to tour these sites, she could easily do it in her family vehicle. Why stir up all the attendant media coverage?
3 – For what possible reason would Mrs. Palin need a movie about her political career? Remember, she had her staff approach Mr. Bannon about making some “short” segments. It was Mr. Bannon who made the decision to make a 2-hour movie, using his own money. Why didn’t she just say no?
4 – Why is she supporting this movie with appearances all over the United States? What is the point of traveling all over the U.S., generating press coverage everywhere, and shaking hands and speaking with people, voters, in every locale?
5 – Why are there O4P organizations in over 30 states, especially in all of the early primary states? Why didn’t Mrs. Palin just tell these people to stop? Is she that callous, that she would allow these people to waste their time and energy in this manner?
6 – Why does Mrs. Palin, a native and proud Alaskan, with a television series to prove it, need a home in Scottsdale, Arizona? Wouldn’t this be a complete jolt to her entire family? Where is Todd Palin going to find work on an oil rig, or pipeline, in Arizona?
Why don’t you all just accept that Mrs. Palin is running for the Republican nomination for President, and act accordingly?
This is not 2008. The political landscape has changed dramatically, and drastically. Mrs. Palin is an “unconventional” candidate. She is running against the “establishment” GOP, which is as opposed to her as the Democ-rats. Both wings of the Ministry of Propaganda are against her.
Luckily, elections are decided by the “people,” not the “ruling class” or the “elites.” And the Republican primaries, historically low-turnout, are decided by energized voters, and local GOTV initiatives. In the world of 2012, this means the conservative grassroots. Mrs. Palin is solidifying this group with every move she makes.
If you need an announcement, here is a suggestion: Pretend that she has already announced and act accordingly.
I am totally bewildered by this “announcement” nonsense. I want someone to give me one, ONE, good reason why a lack of announcement means she is NOT running!
I would also add a couple more bonus clues to this.
If she’s NOT running …
Why would SarahPAC treasurer, Tim Crawford, tell supporters how critical it is for as many Americans as possible to see The Undefeated?
Why would Governor Palin hire Michael Glassner as her chief of staff? Glassner managed Bob Dole’s presidential campaign, and also managed her vice presidential run.
Why would Governor Palin hire Peter Schweizer, a fellow at the Hoover Institution, as her new foreign policy advisor? Schweizer is the author of many books on Reagan, Bush and penned a book on the financial crisis.
Why would Governor Palin launch her One Nation bus tour to highlight our nation’s history and to suggest that we must remember where we came from to get through the challenges ahead?
Finally, watch this video of her impromptu speech in Pella and try to explain why someone not running for president would attempt to link her record in Alaska to timeless American values. She is obviously running. She is obviously drawing a comparison between the good government principles she and her team pursued in Alaska and the kind of leadership we need in Washington D.C.
‘gunner, it doesn’t matter. Palin (™) is not going to run for President. If she did, she would (1) give up her cash cow, and (2) guarantee a landslide victory for Obama.
This person has way more invested in this than they should have at this point.
” Palin (™) “
Worth 10 million a year.....400m wouldn’t cut it.
