Palin will not speak at Republican convention
WASHINGTON | Sun Aug 12, 2012 7:36pm EDT
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Former vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin will not speak at the Republican nominating convention in Tampa later this month, she said in statement on Sunday.
"This year is a good opportunity for other voices to speak at the convention and I'm excited to hear them," Palin, who was Senator John McCain's running mate in the 2008 election, said in a statement on Gretawire, the blog of Fox News's Greta Van Susteren.

I like it
Good idea. Sarah needs her own speaker’s platform away from the GOP convention where she, Newt, Allen West speak and then the voters can compare it to the mitt/paul/mccain speeches. It would be obvious who the Patriots are.
This is sooo outrages, I feel like I am in Alice in Wonderland. One of the most powerful people in the Conservative movement, and she is being shunned???
Romney finally did something good by picking Ryan, but he leaves out the most important person to me.
Where do I go to scream
LOL.....and I'm guessing...like your rhetoric, both are pretty empty...
I wish that was true, I think Romney just does not want her there. This should be a game changer!!!
“She won’t speak but McCain will.”
If this turns out to be true you can bet it is being done because they want her to just go away. Get her out of the public eye in hopes we will forget all about her.
If the GOP wasn’t being run by a bunch of dirtballs (And their current presumptive Presidential nominee is a dirtball) I wouldn’t never think they would do this.
I would say I would dump the GOP but I did that years ago.
The Republican Party is no friend to Conservatives.
“wouldn’t ever” NOT “wouldn’t never”
I keep this up and they are going to revoke my proofreading permit AND my Spelling Nazi license.
WASILLA ALASKA’S SARAH LOUISE....
A PLACE WHERE BEAUTY MEETS BRAINS MEETS BRAVERY MEETS HONESTY MEETS FAITH AND ABILITY.... !
I like that - is it your creation? Kudos, if so!
Sarah has supported Paul Ryan big time over the years! Why doesn’t he ask Romney to include her??
Sarah suggested Ryan for President not that very long ago, within 2 years.
She was asked on Fox. She has been a big supporter of his
How so?
Honestly I think this is a pragmatic move. The folks (like us) who really respond to her are not voting Obama and she has never been overwhelmingly popular with swing voters. This move makes sense.

If you have to ask that question, your are too dense to comprehend the answer.
So, hopefully you were just being an insufferable ass.
Gracious - “This year is a good opportunity for other voices to speak at the convention and I’m excited to hear them,”
Working to save the country - she has gone around the country speaking for and helping raise money for real conservatives
And Fascist-dum & Fascist-dee ARE serious?
Barry "Wall Street Committed No Crimes" Obama and Mittens Romney are two peas in a Police State pod. Banksters & .gov thugs get to commit crimes all day long, and the peasantry gets 10 years for jaywalking.
They don't want her around because she violated the unwritten politico code - don't squeal on your own crooked team.
Thanks! That sounds about right for the GOP/Romney's crowd.
BTTT!
You are one poster who ALWAYS make sense! spot on!
I like how she uses the words of the Democrats against them. Reagan used to do the same.
