And so it begins: Sarah Palin suggested she would run for the U.S. Senate seat in Alaska, and 72 hours later has fired the first volley against her potential opponent, one Sen. Mark Begich — a Democrat, former Anchorage mayor and spirited Palin-basher. He’s already questioned whether the former governor was even a resident of Alaska, then dismissed her as a viable candidate. Naturally, Mrs. Palin was charmed by the challenge, immediately deeming Mr. Begich the “Alaska chameleon” for his political track record.
“You have voted for Obamacare, for massive tax increases, for carbon taxes which could cost Alaskans 21,000 jobs, against pro-life legislation, and there’s so much more. You even flip-flopped to oppose the nation’s balanced budget amendment. You agree with, and vote with, ultra-liberal Senators Chuck Schumer and Harry Reid approximately 90 percent of the time,” Mrs. Palin said in an open letter to Mr. Begich.
“In the meantime, we suppose we’ll see much more playing of the ol’ Washington political game using those inside D.C. reporters each time you have to distract from yet another bad vote for Alaska in the U.S. Senate. It cheers us up and gives us good opportunity to remind Alaskans just how loyal to the Obama agenda you have been,” she concluded....

This should be fun!
I want to move to Alaska so I can vote for her.
Bookmarking this thread.
I anticipate, this should get very interesting.
I’d think this would be a great move, the whole country would be watching this race.
YES!! Senators Palin & Cruz
did she really say she running for Senator? I think the presidential option was taken away if Rand Paul was running to become President
She hasn’t said she is running for the Senate.
Liberals want Sarah Palin to run for the Senate or be on Fox, anything to keep her from running for President against Hillary. that is what they fear. As president she could veto a lof of the socialist agenda. as a senator she is one vote out of a 100. As president she could rein in the EPA to let capitalism use the unlimited oil in shale we have . that is just 2 examples but many more.
Then make a formal announcement, and run. A Senator Palin would be good for Alaska, and good for the country.
But don't fence-sit, Ms. Palin. Begich is up for reelection next year. Decide, then follow through on your decision.
Sarah ....living rent free inside their heads. Acid reflux is building among the highball crowd of navel gazers. Break out the Tums in the Senate chambers.
An article in Realclearpolitics.com pretty much says that she won’t run:
Yep!
I don’t think Democrats need to take this seriously, in fact, they should just ignore her. At their peril!
She hasn’t said she is running for the Senate. liberals just using auto suggestion technique.

Begich is out of touch.
So who would Senator Murkowski support?
Why can’t Sarah do both?
Run for the Senate in 2014 and then, as a U.S. Senator, run for president in 2016.
Obama had been a U.S. Senator for only 180 days when he started the wheels turning for his 2008 run for president against madam Hillary.
They’d take first place as the dynamic duo ahead of Batman and Robin.
