Will she do announce, for example, though a recorded VIDEO,
as an homage to Hillary! — and a secret signal to the PUMAs?

ugh noooo

Gee whiz, don't you folks ever get enough of this stuff?

Has anyone seen the date and time burned into a piece of toast yet?

Within the last week or two,
just about EVERYONE who is ANYONE in the pro-Palin community
has posted online that Governor Palin will announce that she is running for President
on "Constitution Day"
From conservatives4palin.com:

4. The announcement date will be …

Yes, that’s what we all want to know.

That’s what has provoked internecine battles among Palinistas. Some wanted her to declare last December, or this Spring, or yesterday. (Some believe she already declared informally on July 3, 2009 and everyone should just chill out!)

Some believe she should have jumped in before Bachmann and Perry.

The real answer, of course, is in Governor Palin’s head. No one knows when she will announce.

She has stated it will most likely be in September. Facts on the ground could change that, however. My prediction is that it will be on Constitution Day, Sept. 17, because the race is not just about her … it’s about all of us, and our common American values. But I don’t want to suggest that if she DOESN’T declare then that it will be a huge letdown. She will declare when she declares. I don’t have a problem with it. There are a million considerations, including which timing gives her the best shot at victory, the most important consideration of all.

But logic suggests that she might choose a meaningful day for her constituency, just as she announced for governor on Alaska Day, Oct. 18th. Alaska Day is the anniversary of the formal transfer of the Territory of Alaska from Russia to the United States in 1867.

Constitution Day marks the day, Sept. 17th, when the U.S. Constitutional Convention signed the Constitution in 1787.

It isn’t a particularly well-known “holiday,” but here’s what the Governor wrote about it in 2009:

Today marks the 222nd anniversary of the formation and signing of our Constitution. The United States Constitution is one of the greatest founding documents in history because it charted a bold new path in the realm of political theory. Not only does the Constitution establish checks and balances within the federal government, it also divides power among the federal government, the states, and the people. The Founders understood that it is the nature of government to grow at the expense of the people’s liberty; and with that in mind, they established a form of government that would be limited in scope and power in order to maximize power to the people.

Today, let’s also take the opportunity to thank our armed forces. The weight of defending our liberty rests on their shoulders, and because of their efforts and sacrifice, we can celebrate the 222nd anniversary of the formation of our Constitution.

Will Governor Palin announce this Saturday? I have no idea. But if she does … you know what that means, my fellow Palinistas?!

We are five days away from the fundamental transformation of the presidential race!

Really? Where was the section of that piece on how the number of lug nuts on the buses wheels will divine the actual hour and minute of the big announcement? Quite a stretch here.

Don’t forget that she promised a local Anchorage radio/tv station that she would tell them first.

She’s played her hand far too long. Time for Sarah to fold and do her good work in the background.

IMO, I think she would hurt the GOP chances more than help them at this point.

You can’t get a more reliable fix then that.

She’ll make the announcement at my house with Todd and Piper at her side. It’ll be Friday morning at 8:52 am Pacific time with a pre-nod to the radio guys in Alaska at 8:51 to fulfill her promise that they’d know first. This gives Rush enough of a heads-up to change around his opening monologue to fit the big news.

I’ll have bagels and scrambled eggs and bacon and waffles for the people that show up to be a part of things.

Well, Palin lovers (and I'm one of them, to a large degree) won't like what I'm about to type. I don't think Palin will declare her candidacy, nor do I think that if she did, that she would win the nomination.

Those are unwelcome words here in the 'Palin country' of FR, but I've been around in the GOP long enough to know more about the process of gaining the nomination, and election than 95 percent of FReepers. I've been far too close to the process, and involved in too many conventions to even think otherwise at this point.

I wish I could be more optimistic, but there is just no way, for a host of reasons, that Sarah could possibly gain the nomination. But, can we look for Sarah to support the most conservative of other candidates? At this point, and with her performance on Fox News this eve, I'm not even sure I can count on that! Sad to say.

Can YOU predict what the "unpredictable" Sarah Palin will do?

And, how will she get the MAXIMUM media attention?

She's going to announce that she's running for President as a Democrat! She's going to challenge Obama in the primaries since there is no one in the rat party with enough cojones to do it!

Heads exploding everywhere!
