On Wednesday, on FOX Business’ “Follow the Money,“ Palin told Eric Bolling she ”would do whatever [she] could to help,” leaving the door open to any and all possibilities should a brokered convention take form later this year.
Sarah Palin Talks About 2012 Prospects & Possible Brokered Convention
Sarah and Col Allen West from FL a swing state which is vital for us to win and he can go after bozo the clown in all the 57 states.
Or Sarah and the NM Gov, another good conservative
She seems to be saying that the long knives that prompted her not to run were in her party. Come to think of it, she was correct.
By the way, we want a deadlocked convention, not a brokered one. A brokered convention would lead to the GOP-E choosing the candidate, either Romney or Bush.
I guarantee a brokered convention will leave conservatives out in the cold. The GOP power brokers mouths are watering over the prospect.
I think Sarah was mostly inplying that she will actually endorse a candidate on an official level if and when a brokered convention likely happens.
There is a very strong possibility of that happening, considering the mess that this primary season has become.
“‘All Bets Are Off’ in Event of Brokered GOP Convention”
The title is deceptive.
One would assume by the title that she would run for President in the event of a brokered convention.
But that’s not what she said.
“Well, for one, I think that it could get to that…if it had to be…closed up today, the whole nominating process, then we would be looking at a brokered convention,” Palin said. “Nobody is quite there yet, so I think that months from now, if that is the case, all bets are off as to who it will be, willing to offer up themselves up in their name in service to their country. I would do whatever I could to help.”
I’n not impressed. A brokered convention? Really???
If we want to play along with this fantasy, then we need to add in the possibility that good ol’ Jeb could make a strong stand too.
And then what about the other “real” candidates like Bachmann and Perry?
As for Palin... she is way down the list of viable possibilities.

she’s game to run but she didn’t have the stomach for the primary

Well, then, you need to either work to elect a solidly conservative delegate from your congressional district. Or better yet, run yourself and seek the support of like-minded folks.
Fascinating stuff. My wife was just asking me if a brokered convention is likely. I don’t know if it is likely but there is a strong possibility. The situation that bothers me is concerning the “super delegates” and their ability to give Romney the majority in the first vote at the convention. Just don’t like the super delegate concept. Gives the establishment too much power. How are the super delegates chosen?
Allen West would be great.
I think she meant more than that, and I'm fine with it.
I just hope she's ready for the sh*t-storm to fire back up again. No matter how, or when, she runs... She needs to be a lot better prepared to fight against the slander and libel they will hit her with again.
Nope. She was smart enough to see where the debates were going and that they would ultimately harm all the conservative candidates. She is smart enough to understand that by staying out of the metrosexual slap fighting that is the primaries, she commands for attention and media face time than the actually candidates put together.
The landscape of Alaska is littered with the political bodies of people who have underestimated Sarah Palin.
As the party VP nominee in 2008, Palin was in the seat as presumptive standard bearer for 2012. She abrogated that position when she declined to run. Her sphere of influence has dwindled greatly as a result. I doubt the Elites consider her a ‘force’ in the party politics. She became little more than an ‘also ran’.
How did the elections get so complicated? Geesh
