That’s exactly where she should focus. Just as Rudy Giuliani should have focused on taking the Senate seat from Gillibrand in NY.
Well, Senators impact all 50 states, so as a non-Alaskan, I’ll say this: the position of being Sarah Palin is currently far more powerful than that of being one of two Senators from Alaska. I’ll say Sarah is of more use where she is. This notion of insisting that everybody “run for office” is non-conservative on its face.
I’m not from Alaska, but I don’t think Palin wants to give up being a pundit, author, popular speaker, reality TV star, etc. & get bogged down being 1 of 100 (or 1 of 535).
This is a good idea.
The senate is a waste of her talent
This would be Sarah's most effective way back to relevance, and a way for her to nullify the undeserved 'quitter' accusation. Seeing her standing on the Senate floor along with Cruz, Lee, and Paul among others would be heartening, and would REALLY pi$$ off the left.
Run Sarah Run!
Fwiw, I’ve heard this is actually a bogus group trying to weaken Palin and her PAC by ciphoning off donations from SarahPAC.

Tea Party Group Drafting Sarah Palin to Run for Alaska Senate ^

“Tea Party” group drafts Gov. Palin for Senate, but does she want the job? ^
Yes she should run, but can she afford all those frivolous law suits that will block her from doing her job?
I’m all for it. I’d like to see how she does in DC
I hope Mark Begich’s numbers are in the toilet, because the last ones I’d seen for Alaska showed the folks up there aren’t all that enamored with Sarah anymore, either.
I’m not from Alaska but that is one way to get her out of the way. I think there are many repubs out there worried that she may run for president. Even if the repubs would win back the senate she would be treated the same by the repubs in power as she is treated by the dems. There would be a handful of brave souls who would hang with her but I could count those on one hand.
The repub elite is more afraid of her than the dems are. Get her out of the way and run their real choice. And that choice isn’t going to be anything close to conservative. She is powerless as a senator. But as president, not so much!
Go Sarah!
