Going Rogue: Palin says she plans to 'shake up the GOP machine' w/ $1.2M raised through her PAC
The London Daily Mail ^ | January 29, 2013 | Leslie Larson

Once again Sarah Palin is showing that she has no plans to play by the rules.

She has parted ways with FOX News after a turbulent relationship with the conservative cable news channel, taken pot shots at pundits in the 'lame stream media' and slammed her own party for selecting Mitt Romney as the 2012 Republican presidential nominee.

Now the former Alaska governor says she'll use the $1.2 million raised through her SarahPAC to 'shake up the GOP machine' and unveiled a vague vision on how she'll get her message out to a larger audience.

News broke on Friday night that she had not renewed her $1 million annual contract with FOX News, after three years as a contributor on Roger Ailes' network.

Palin then spoke out on Saturday, in an interview with Breitbart.com, saying that she was working to 'free up opportunities to share more broadly the message of the beauty of freedom and the imperative of defending our republic and restoring this most exceptional nation.'

Calling the future 'wide open' with opportunities, she shared how she plans 'to pick battles wisely, and all in due season' - hinting that she still has a fight left in her.

Her vision for the future coincided with the financial disclosure from her Political Action Committee, SarahPAC, with records released on Monday showing she ended 2012 with nearly $1.2 million in the bank.

She raised around $20,790 between Nov. 27 and Dec. 31 and spent $67,800 during that time period on expenses including consulting, speech writing and legal fees...

I think I'll try and raise that $2 million for her PAC then.

If she will stand as a voice in opposition to the progressive/communist agenda, where do we send the check? No one is speaking up anymore...

She will need much more than $1.2M to shake up the GOP establishment!

1.2 mill will get you a 10 second Superbowl ad, one night in the Lincoln bedroom or a round of skeet with Barry.

I hope Sarah, Levin, Rush & Beck coordinate efforts to take down the GOPe and unite the conservative base. The tea party was effective in 2010 as a loosely based coalition of local groups. It needs some strong leaders now to focus the strength of all those local groups.

At least this publication got it right!

Sarah drew first blood when she made her announcement on Mark Levin's show NOT Fox.

Ailes was mad as He//....LOL.

Sarah Palin was through with Fox before Ailes was aware, but he knew it on October 5, 2011.

Good news....although I do wish she does makes better choices with who she supports. Palin did support Amnesty Liberals John McCain and Jeff Flake in their Senate primary runs (both are part of Gang of 8 Rubio/Obama Amnesty bill). She also tried to find a third party candidate against Todd Akin in MO...joining the RINOs sandbagging his campaign.

Hopefully that a Palin leaving Faux News she will not be influenced PhonyCon RINOs

Good on Inhofe, Cruz and Cornyn(?); but why did Rand Paul vote yes? Shame.

She also promised to shake up the 2012 elections. How’d that work out?

Somebody give HG a ping when she promises to fix a damn sammich. That might interest him.

Simple, he's been talking the conservative talk lately, but he is damn sure not walking the walk.
That told me about all I needed to know about him.
The *nut* is back under the tree he fell from.
