I say this as a Palin or bust supporter in 2012.

This crap better get cleared up real quick. Even I’m starting to get tired of it!

I've said that she wouldn't use this event to make her announcement. Maybe that's why the change of plans (if this rumor holds true).

Two sources close to Palin. Maybe so, but she usually doesn't release information this way... Hm.

Scott is usually in the first to know group as far as reporters go....not sure what is going on...but I trust he has an article posting soon.

I knew this was going to happen. Here’s why:

Yesterday it was posted that Christine O’Donnell asked and was permitted to speak at this event. Immediately the MSM tried to lash these two together. I am certain that any good Palin consultant would advise Sarah to ask that O’Donnell be uninvited — or back out of the event altogether.

Right or wrong, no way Palin wants to be billed at a major national event on the same stage as with O’Donnell. I agree with Palin and knew this was coming. It’s a no-brainer.

>> Right or wrong, no way Palin wants to be billed at a major national event on the same stage as with O’Donnell.

Why is that?

(Serious question: I really don’t understand the dynamics between the two.)

Thanks and FRegards

Mark Levin told his listeners not to expect a Palin, I’m in announcement just yet cause her UNDEFEATED goes nationwide on the 3td as well...Levin allowed one does not announce both at the same time

However as an advertiser ,I disagree.....to do both launches her message in film with her message on stage

I just may be correct if there is pause in intention

Personally, I attack the DOJ, fast walker and Holder first

Palin is not happy that ODonnell has crashed the party. She has a hard enough time with lib media, the last thing she needs is to be associated with this fruitcake.

Why would Palin be concerned about O’Donnell also speaking there?

Only two reasons I can imagine would be to avoid offending Karl Rove (why in the world would anyone not want Karl Rove offended?)

Or because of some inherent opposition to free speech.

Neither seems real likely...

From past experience, this is exactly the sort of rumor which gets (rapidly) swatted down directly by Governor Palin.

Should be clearer in an hour or so.

Palin supporters are going to start jumping off the roof soon, when they finally realize she isn't going to run.

Then she better get out in front of this and give an explanation...not wanting to be associated with COD is a perfectly legitimate reason IMO.
