Sarah Palin may be once again dreaming of the White House and a run for the presidency in 2016.
After a long absence from the political arena, Palin appears to be strategically increasing her appearances and speeches while also taking solid aim at President Obama. This has led many political experts to conclude that she is aiming to enter the 2016 presidential race, or at least is trying to test the waters for a potential run.
The rumors kicked up a bit this week when a spokesman for the Rev. Billy Graham announced that Sarah Palin will be a guest for the reverend’s 95th birthday. Graham still carries great political sway, so much in fact that Mitt Romney carved out time to meet with Graham in the final days of the 2012 presidential race in the hopes of earning a public endorsement and assuring conservative voters.
Graham’s birthday celebration is also drawing other big names in the conservative world, including real estate mogul Donald Trump.
Sarah Palin has also taken her political tour to Iowa, one of the most important states for Republican hopefuls. On November 9 Palin is slated to speak at the annual banquet for the Iowa Faith and Freedom Coalition, an important conservative and evangelical group.
After spending a long stretch away from the spotlight, Palin is also ramping up her political attacks on President Obama in what could be the groundwork for her 2016 platform.
In a Facebook post entitled “Obama’s Debt Default is on His Shoulders While We Shoulder His Impeachable Offenses,” she placed the blame for the debt limit fight solely on Obama’s shoulders.
“Defaulting on our national debt is an impeachable offense, and any attempt by President Obama to unilaterally raise the debt limit without Congress is also an impeachable offense,” Palin wrote.
If Sarah Palin is planning a 2016 presidential run, she will have even more ammunition to boost her resume in the coming weeks. On November 12, three days after her planned speech in Iowa, Palin will be released a book taking on the conservative-friendly topic of the War on Christmas.
Pain promises that in the book — titled Good Tidings and Great Joy: Protecting the Heart of Christmas — she will “tell you how to fight back against those politically correct Scrooges who seem to hate not just a beautiful holiday, but an entire faith.”
Sarah Palin is still a long way from an official 2016 presidential run, however, and likely wouldn’t declare any intention to run for several months.
Or by sour grapes Freepers.
That’s a great graphic for the current DC GOP leadership.
They constantly make deals with the Dems, believing the Dems lies about compromise.
And the Dems always pull the football out.
However, that graphic has no bearing on reality when talking about Sarah Palin.
Just giving you some reality here.
Will you get all mad again and vote for the Libertarian? Maybe you should ask Rick Perry why he jumped in as she was making noises with her bus tour? He promised he would not run by the way, if truth matters to you.
“The fact is she said you could see Russia from Alaska in response to a foreign policy question, as if living in Alaska made one a natural genius on the subject.”
And Alaska has a lucrative tourist trade with Japan. Alaska has a booming fish trade with China. Alaska exports oil. Alaska’s National Guard is on permanent active duty because of Russia’s activity over their airspace.
So. An Alaskan governor has WAY more foreign policy experience than ... actually pretty much ANY other governor.
Don’t be such a drone accepting liberal talking points without examining them thoroughly. If you took the time, you would find that they are ALWAYS wrong. Mostly VERY wrong.
On what planet?
Obama demanded that the GOP cave on shutdown and debt limit, and GOP did. That was pretty simple. He demanded unconditional surrender and they did,
No football.
Now those suckers who believed she was running ~ 2011 and will again, that's funny!
You are absolutely right. God did not forgive Judah for shedding innocent blood among other things, but a reprieve is possible if the sacrifice of children and the elderly (orphans and widows) is made illegal Forever. I don’t know of any civilization that practiced human sacrifice that still exists and would like to someday study their demise.
I meant reprieve as postponement, not cancellation.
I just won’t pay any attention to her until she actually declares, Skippy.
Thanks, that was what I was asking.
I guess she needs a relief speaker.
Get over it she is a girl, they don't usually sound like John Wayne, while your at it consider that Ted Cruz doesn't sound like the Duke either.
??? At the risk of sound like Hitlary, what difference does it make? She never made an announcement that she was running. She may have taken a bus simply because she could.
Enough on this nonsense. Send some that quotes her as running or take a hike. People’s “deductive” reasoning does not equate to her making an announcement.
Apparently this will come as a shock to you, but pols often go through the motions of running without announcing. They want to get a sense of the buzz they create and test the water for how they will be received. They do this without announcing their candidacy because they don’t want to look fall flat out of the gate when THEY ACTUALLY MAKE AN ANNOUNCEMENT. Other Pols simply announce they are running and look stupid when they fall flat.
Another insight to Sarah’s political savvy and experience.
I do not accept liberal talking points. I made up my mind about Palin on my own.
“Is gravitas French for testicles?”
The French don’t have such a word.
I don’t need to get over it...my vote should be enough.....I made a point about her speech delivery....we hate listening to Barry of a kenya and his stuttering....and I don’t like listening to someone screech at me either.
If the point is to get elected then it is good not to sound annoying....jeezus.
Someone should create a parody of SNL on some other network and poke fun of them. Watch how fast NBC starts a lawsuit. It’s okay for them to do it though.
This is so stunning...you’re all arguing the same stuff from the last run concerning Palin...might as well put up the old threads and everyone save their breath....
Not healthy retreading the past.....Sarah moved on long ago..and she is doing what she wants to do and is good at doing....people need to let her and enjoy her as she is..not want they want her to be.
agree , why not have fun poked at them over at NBC, make fun of that ugly nasty woman who liked to make fun of Sarah, make fun of Lettermann too and the move on to Matthews etc
The left only likes jokes when they make the jokes to attack
The sensitivity issues have returned....along with re-treading the past.....from Sarah’s voice to if or not she will run...to if she quit or not....but I feel bad for Sarah because she simply doesn’t want people to do that about her.
From what I’ve observed Sarah seems very happy and excited about her role of entertainer and rabble rouser. .....She has a core of fans who treat her like a star and who hang on her every word. ......She gets to support and give her thumbs up to any candidate she pleases without getting any election dirt on herself... and she doesn’t have to deal with the media who are always out to get her....in fact she can play them better without any risk......... I don’t see her giving any of that up.
