(I even think it’s possible Palin will endorse Perry this weekend.)”
Wow.
If THAT happens, this is gonna be a short, uninteresting primary season!
(What if Giuliani endorsed simultaneously? Now that wouldn’t go over well here, obviously, but, for the GOP establishment types, it would be strong. If Perry announces and is flanked by Palin and Giuliani....well, mittens is gonna have a crapper!)
all that said...I don’t think Palin will endorse him this early.
Perry is IN!! and Palin and is not going to run = Romney is toast!
Step 1 destroy Romney in 2011, step 2 destroy Obama in 2012
Woot!
GO PERRY!
What would be REALLY amazing is if he picked Palin for VP!
Hey, what do I know? I am a nobody in the political process and I’m not in the media. There are some truly knowledgeable people here in FR, I am not one of them.
I’m just posting my gut feeling here, that I think Palin thinks that the best way to help get rid of the commies who are now OCCUPYING the WH is for her to endorse Perry early.
And I just had a thought:
What’s the best road to the WH for Sarah Palin? Is it for her to run herself in 2012? Maybe. Maybe it is. And if she announces I will absolutely drop my support for Rick Perry and join her team, literally and figuratively.
But maybe that’s NOT the best road for her. Maybe the BEST road for her is to be VP for 8 years, in a Perry administration.
In 2020 Sarah Palin will be 56 years old and will have completed two terms as VP.
Not a bad resume for one so dearly loved by so many.
Eight years of Rick Perry followed by eight years of Sarah Palin... not the perfect world (which would be President Palin sworn in to office on Jan 20, 2013)... but I could live with that.
I hope she doesn't wait until the day before like she did with Tancredo. :o

Palin's(™) entire game is, "keep 'em guessing". It keeps her in the cat bird seat. My bet is that she will still play her dance of the seven veils as long as she can get away with it and then do it again over an endorsement.
Her relevence drops once she has A) said she will not run, and B)endorsed a candidate.
