Reporters were reduced to begging for a hint of what time she might be leaving and then jumping red lights just to keep up. "Even we don't know where we're going the next day," said her father, Chuck Heath. "It's been fun, sneaking out the back of hotels, leaving at midnight."
It was a chance for revenge on the media, which was not kind to Palin when she was chosen as John McCain's running mate in the 2008 presidential election.
"Three years ago, it was much more callous," said her father. "When I see people holding those placards, I want to punch them, but I don't." No one knows whether the tour is to test waters for a possible election bid or is simply a strategy to boost her profile. Palin insisted to Fox News, for which she works: "I don't think I owe anything to the mainstream media . . . I want them to have to do a little bit of work on a tour like this."
Her mother, Sally, said even she did not know whether her daughter would run: "The idea is to figure out who would be best for president. If she decides she really, really wants to run, then she will."
Asked by The Sunday Times when she would decide, Palin replied: "Some weeks".
She may first seek advice from another unconventional female politician, Margaret Thatcher. "I am going to Sudan in July and hope to stop in England on the way," she said. "I am just hoping Mrs Thatcher is well enough to see me as I so admire her."

“It’s been fun, sneaking out the back of hotels, leaving at midnight.”

I loved reading that!
God love him. He's such a good guy!
After weeks of having a “Poor” wireless Internet signal and calling and searching for help, I just now figured out I needed to connect the antenna to my computer and the signal is “Excellent”.
Yes I can be that dumb. Where are the flamers when you need them?!

LoL, thank you!
But seriously, Sudan?
I would rather Sarah Palin not go to a dangerous place.
Nothing good is going to happen there.
I was listening to commie TV, MSLSD,the Morning Joe with his morning ho program when the topic of Palin came up. They went on to say how she failed to apologize for the Paul Revere remarks showing they fail to listen to what she says.then come the fabricated stats. They quoted an unknown poll that said she has 63% of voters who won't vote for her. I just love to listen to the opposition commies to see what they are up to next.
Of course never any documentation of any of their claims. You just have to take their word for it. If that's all they have they are in deep doo doo. GO SARAH GO!!

As POTUS, she may well have to visit dangerous places. Unlike our current “commander”-in-chief, who thinks a public golf course is dangerous enough to neccessitate a full secret service detail.
Mrs Palin's mother obviously suffers from PDS. Any smart person knows that Sarah Palin has been running or is definitely going to run.
Sally needs to join the Palin Ping List so she's kept better informed as to her daughter's intentions.
He is indeed and his daughter’s a chip off the same block.
I think Mrs. Heath is well schooled in the art of media dodge. PDS is a wholly different ailment.
Of course, she’s welcome to join her daughter’s ping list here anytime!
