It’s been obvious for months now that Sarah Palin was getting ready to run for President.
If any other person not named Sarah Palin were to announce what she has announced in the last 72 hours, it would be taken as a sign of a serious consideration of a presidential run. In fact, all Rick Perry did was say, Im thinking about [running for president], and it was taken as a sign of a serious consideration of a presidential run.
We'll find out soon enough if Perry is running. Is there really a lot of excitement or enthusiasm about his announcement right now, or is the response just sort of "Okay ... get back to us when you've finally made up your mind"?
Is it so very different with Palin? She's "testing the waters." If she runs, she runs. If she doesn't she doesn't.
If people are a little more sceptical about whether she'll run or not, it's because she has more options right now, and because, she, like Huckabee or Fred Thompson has discovered a life outside campaigning and politicking.
