If you’ve actually read or heard any of the answers she’s given to that question, from a multitude of sources, she said end of Sept. ~ sometime in Oct. at the latest.

I know we’re all anxious here. I am too. But I’ll take the lady at her word. It’s gonna be war if she says yes, she of all people knows that best. You, me and most everybody else have no idea what’s happening behind the scenes; the strategies, the timing, the precursors... None of it.

I for one will not be manipulated by the DNC, The GOP, the other contenders or ankle biters, or LSM in this dissension sewing mania going on. Divide and conquer is a very old strategy.

She’s got her timetable; she’s has said repeatedly any campaign of hers would not be conventional. You should believe her.

A few days before the election? I find that hard to believe. Maybe you mean October 1979.
D'Oh!!!

Yes, you are correct. It was late October 1979 when Reagan entered the race for the 1980 election (and primaries).

Check these people out. They're giving up everything:

Peter Singleton, a lawyer from California, moved to Iowa eight months ago and he says he’s been using his own money to travel the state, going to Republican Party meetings at the county level as well as Tea Party events to sign-up supporters for Palin.

“We personally believe that she’s going to run,” Singleton says.

(snip)

“I just kind of notice a theme some people like to use and they like to refer to Governor Palin as a ‘celebrity’ and, by extension, people who like her are ‘fans,’” McCormick says. “She’s not a celebrity and we’re not fans. She’s a political leader and we’re supporters of her.”

In July, McCormick took a leave of absence from her job in Fort Worth, Texas, to move to Iowa and join Singleton’s Organize4Palin effort.

“I’m that passionate about my principles and I think this election is incredibly important, so that trumps any uncomfortableness I had about leaving my secure job and comfortable lifestyle in Texas.”

If at the end of the Peek-a-Boo bus tour Palin decides not to run, people like these folks (who sacrificed a great deal) aren't going to find the "brilliant strategy" very amusing.

...clear the deck anytime???

...That's a bold statement. I think she has some cards to play, but she's a player, not a card shark. Do you know she has something up her sleeve???

...Guessing you know and we have to figure it out...

Here’s an idea. How ‘bout y’all stop making up questions concerning Sarah and just wait until she actually does something then write about that? As Popeye said to Olive Oyl, “Yer gonna give me appleplexy.”

The telegraphing she is not announcing on Saturday leaves open the possibility that she could announce on Saturday.

I would bet against it, but could happen

Nice formatting of the quote - how did you put it in a colored box?

PerryCARE started in Texas.

I don’t understand it.
I like Sarah as much as the next person, but I think it is folly for her to think she can win the presidency after she got mauled in the VP slot a few short years ago.
She has added nothing to her resume since then.

If she is serious about reentering politics, she would be wise to shoot for Senator Kyles slot in 2012 and then AFTER building a resume and experience she could enter into a presidential bid.

Got Mauled? Who did you vote for...McCain?

Once again all the people, well meaning as they may be...sound like a bunch of little kids in the back seat screaming..."Are we there yet? Are we there yet? Are we there yet"?

Are you saying that Palin wasn’t mauled by the media?

What's Sarah Palin going to say in her big speech on Saturday?

"...and I'd also like to thank the organizers of this event, cough not cough Ken Crow cough, for making me feel so welcome..."

I continue to be amazed at how many einsteins we have here who feel qualified to tell this woman what she should do and when and how. Mighty highpowered thinkers abound, it seems.

She was mauled by the media and is Undefeated.

You didn't specify mauled by the media. ANY Conservative will be mauled by the media. Is that a reason to NOT support them?

Can't we all just get along?

| No mas.

Who cares what she says. She is getting really tired.
