It doesn’t matter to me how the media spins their life...it matters that they give them the ammunition to do so and then feed into it.
I think that's more perception, than reality, caww.
The press has followed Sarah and her family's every little move since the day she gave her acceptance speech in 2008. They lie in wait for any Palin to make the slightest misstep, so they can blow it up into a manufactured controversy.
The press are masters at this. In the so-called 'Palin Brawl', it was Sarah's daughter who was physically attacked and assaulted, but the press spun it to make it sound as though the Palin family walked into someone else's home looking for a fight. If you'd take the time to read what the Palins themselves had to say about it, you might feel a lot different about that incident.
And so it's gone with every other flap in the press about the Palin family. They don't have to move a muscle to be attacked and vilified by the media. They just have to be breathing. Their very existence is a threat to the left wing, who need no prompting or openings whatsoever on the Palins' part, to find a way to trash them.
If there's anything we've learned in the six years we've known the Palins, it's that.
What on earth did Sarah and her family ever do to deserve the massive public beat-down they've endured all these years? Absolutely nothing, except be everything the left is not, and show by example what worthless liars and frauds the left wing is.
Ba Da Bing!

I notice she didn’t say run for what office? Could she mean for a Senate seat in 2016? Isn’t Lisa what’s her face up for re-election then?
Because the Party Lords had decided it was Mitt’s Turn. He had it, by now it must be Sarah’s Turn. Going against the principle of everybody gets a turn would threaten the very foundation of the GOP.
Let’s extend a warm welcome to our POTUS 2016
I think the media attack on her family “brawl” has changed the game. It has provided Gov Palin with the catalyst she needed. Why should we complain?
but run for real
I agree. But “run for real” to me means no holds barred on smacking down her opponents. Drag out all the dirt and latch on to the democrats like a pit bull. Expose hildabeast for the wicked witch that she is. Expound upon all those who enabled obama and the fraud of his administration. Be a wrecking ball!
Tea Party?
Allen lost his last election.
He lost because the district was redrawn so that he would lose.
I don’t know.
I won’t say I disagree with you, but I am not ready to say I agree either.
Last time around was a fluke (it seems). I believe Sarah has one good run in her. I believe she may run this time, and I believe good and well, she may win.
Until I receive any conflicting information, that is my base of beliefs.
I believe Sarah took a four-year break to be a mother. Period. And she’s done quite a good job.
Palin 2016.
Horse Petunias! It's a moot point now, but you know as well as I do, according to liberal twisted logic, it's not whether the charges are true, it's the seriousness of the charge. He will always be the candidate who was "accused".
Gawdamn RINO noobs.
Nonsense. By your logic anyone can be accused of cheating on their spouse and driven from office. If that were the case Gloria Allred could find a former associate of EVERY conservative and claim they had an affair with her/him. That would never work because most of the conservative targets would simply laugh off the allegations because they were so utterly untrue.
Anyone with nothing to hide would survive these accusations - and often emerge stronger. The people that don't survive these types of charges are politicians with something to hide which they can't defend. Herman Cain was the latter. In the end it doesn't matter since Cain was never a serious candidate in the first place.
