Sarah Palin is “of course” interested in running for president in 2016, she said in an interview released Friday, and hopes to see a woman in the Oval Office. “Yeah, I mean, of course, when you have a servant’s heart, when you know that there is opportunity to do all you can to put yourself forward in the name of offering service, anybody would be interested,” Palin told ABC News in the interview, which was conducted on Thursday in Las Vegas.
And, hinting at her own interest in potentially joining the race, she suggested that gender might drive her involvement. “America has had enough of seeing that sign on the Oval Office door saying, ‘No Girls Allowed.’ I know that,” she said. While she “doesn’t necessarily” have run, she is “happy to drive the competition.”
Palin’s comments come one day before she is expected to attend the Iowa Freedom Summit, a gathering hosted by Rep. Steve King that will bring several potential Republican presidential contenders to the early caucus state. hosted by King (R-Iowa). Others on the guest list include New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker, Texas Sen. Ted Cruz and former Texas Gov. Rick Perry.
“Big competition, and that competition in the GOP … will surface that candidate who can take on Hillary, be ready for Hillary and show the nation what it is going to take to get the country back on the right track — because we can’t afford status quo, because status quo lately has been Latin for, ‘We are getting screwed,’ and status quo has got to go,” she said.

Well she does tend to grind on some people...but I have tell you..
...since Drudge Headlined Palin today the ‘comment section’ has been moving like a fast paced conveyor belt... BECAUSE... all the OBOTS are off this weekend and hammering one liners , all of course insulting.
Looks to me like the lines they’re using are all pre-written....so this is a good way to ‘watch’ the Obots .. how they operate ‘on the social media’. Interesting to see.
At any rate...Palin does get reactions and it appears to be a love/hate issue for most. The party can certainly use her and since she’s in Iowa no doubt they intend to.
...After all she does have ‘the Obots occupied’!! LOLOLOLOL
