Of course I could be completely wrong

Nothing personal, but I suspect you are, indeed, wrong. She was recently asked, after Perry joined the race, whether there was anyone in the field she could support, and she said no. Sounds pretty final to me. I say she's in.

I will go you one further, counselor. I think, although Governor Palin will not use her September 3 address to announce her own candidacy, she will in the course of laying out her vision for America and her priorities take out several candidates at the knees.

She didn't say that. She said she hadn't yet decided she could support anybody in the field, but she was still watching, and would make her decision after she decided if someone in the field proved themselves to be someone she could support.
