Obviously people today blindly followed a rumor, but a rumor which (as I understand it) she gave original life to by saying on her TV show that she would announce on the Bob and Mark show.
So maybe she isn’t to blame for today’s events, but she is definitely to blame for the focus on the Bob and Mark show - and thus for creating a condition where rumors can spread like wildfire.
Her desperate supporters are grasping...grasping for anything. Just waiting for something.
And that something ain’t coming. When we get to the end of September, it will revert to the new mid-October deadline. And so on.
(But if she does run, more power to her. If she can pull the field to the right, great! I’m all for that!).
Did she say today? No. Palin stated nothing. People acted on assumptions they made because of an unsubstantiated rumor. That's their fault. Not hers.

You have no basis for such a statement. She has never done such a thing. She gave her time frame in August. She will NOT be pushed. Frankly I wouldn't support her if she could.
