"Hes dying to have her enter so she can...do what, exactly?"
Create a three way split of the conservative vote between her, Bachmann and Perry so that Mitt can slip by as the winner. That scenario appears to be his best chance at winning the nomination. He needs something to shake up the race because Perry is currently running away with the nomination.

He needs something to shake up the race because Perry is currently running away with the nomination. And may have peaked too soon. Politics are fluid. And things change quickly. Perry declared 23 days ago. The MSM hasn't even STARTED his colonoscopy. NOTHING is certain at this point.

She doesn't owe a thing to anybody. She can wait as long as she wants. They owe her quite frankly. Go Sarah and take your time. We are standing by for your leadership. It is desperately needed. Bachmann, Santorum and Cain are the only other worthwhile candidates. You are a great patriot Sarah!!!! Hang tight and do your thing.

Funny! I don’t remember the Hill running any articles in 2008 about the One centering His movement around Him.

"Politics are fluid. And things change quickly."
Sure they can change and a further split among conservative voters is one such change that Romney is hoping for.

Wrong. The Tea Party has spawned millions of leaders. Each and every Tea Party participant is a leader.
This is what made the Tea party hard for the other side to demonize. Once figures become so called “leaders” the other side has individual personalities to focus on to attack the whole thing.
Leaders(individual personalities)are the reason most movements fail in time.

The
Armed Forces Tea Party Patriots group has no named organizer...no members listed..no events scheduled..and no projects being worked on.
Sounds like a false flag group to me.

If Palin runs, first she'll win Iowa and inherit Bachmann's supporters, then she will Florida and South Carolina and inherit Rick Perry supporters. She could even win New Hampshire and knock Mitt Romney out. She will steamroll her opposition
FYI, rob777 has been smearing Sarah Palin with an extraordinary number of posts (like this one.) The anti-Palin propoganda seems to be a full-time job for him. Please see his posting history.

Romney will not get in if the candidates are smart enough to tie him to Obama/Romneycare. But it’s a good meme, ain’t it.

I’m not sure it does much good for him to lure Palin in to split the vote between herself, Bachmann (if she stays in) and Perry if he’s not still in the race to take advantage. And if he does anything other than win in New Hampshire, he very well may not be. And if “Little Miss Unelectable” keeps outdrawing him on his own turf, that’s a problem for him.

Thanks for the link deport..saw nothing at the AFTP website to indicate they are the group referred to in The Hill article. Their last news release was Aug.24th 2011 on the topic of hate speeech..nothing about Palin at all.
I just sent these guys an email to get them to comment on the story..sounds to me like their good name is getting abused.

To: deport
Look at the posting histories. The Rick Perry supporters, not true Tea Party members, are the ones bashing Palin for not making a quick decision. I have been out there fighting The Left for a long time and Perry’s supporters are exactly the same — they use the same slimy tactics of smear jobs and personal attacks. They are politics as usual.
The assertions they are making are ludicrous. Sarah Palin can declare whenever she wants. It’s a tough decision and she can take whatever time she needs to make up her mind. It’s only her slimy opponents who will take every oppotunity to denigrate her who will claim she is leading us on. Ronald Reagan waited until November 13th to declare. Was he leading us on? Campaigns should not be a year and a half long. Long campaigns are politics as usual and they are not healthy for this country.
Selling books and making movies are not corrupt. Ronald Reagan wrote books and, of course, made movies. Do these people want her to instead prostitute herself to special interests like Rick Perry has done?

So who is the “other” conservative? All I’ve seen so far is a RINO and a ‘Rat in conservative clothing.....
To: rob777
The Tea Party must remain a movement centered o principle and not become one centered on personality.
Who was the "unnamed" member of the Armed Forces Tea Party Patriots the "Hill" is reporting?
