Sarah Palin draws crowds with her hide-and-seek bus tour. Michele Bachmann says Palins plans wont dissuade her from her likely presidential bid. Iowa GOP activists travel to New Jersey to implore Gov. Chris Christie to run, and Texas Gov. Rick Perry weighs a campaign.
The Republican presidential field is far less settled than it seemed just a week ago, and it shows few signs of jelling soon.
With campaigning off to a slow start in early-voting states, half a dozen potential candidates are mulling whether to jump in. So keen is the interest, among journalists at least, that two news helicopters tracked Palins East Coast bus trip to Philadelphia on Tuesday.....

The press is PO’d that they haven’t been able to influence who the GOP candidate should be. It must be killing them.

These mediapukes are so pathetically transparent. If Palin is the blithering idiot they claim her to be, why do they chase her around the counrty and report on her every word and action? If she's so stupid that she's no threat to their pimp-Obama, why pay her any attention at all?
Of course we all know the answer. They're just waiting to pounce on any faux-pau or slip of the tonge to 'prove' how stupid she is. You know, like saying they speak Austrian in Austria, or pronouncing corpsman "corpse-man", or traveling to 57 states.

Heh, we're old farts together, cause I'm 58 in about 5 weeks!
I'll be thrilled if Sarah decides to run, but I'll understand completely if she takes a pass this time.
