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.
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.
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.

Ok.
Let’s see what we know in two weeks. I hope she has either announced, or announced that she is not running. Either of those will be a positive event for America (ie, either she adds to the competition to the GOP field, which is good, or she lets her supporters determine if they can support another candidate, which is also good).
I suspect, however, that she will not give such clarification, and that come two weeks from today, her die hard supporters will be saying “October” or “sometime in November because that is what Reagan did” (as if there were ever any doubt back in 1979 that Reagan was running).
For the good of the country, it would be best for her to stick to her September timeframe. That’s not “pushing”. That’s just acknowledging that there is a bigger picture here than her needs/desires/timeframe. If she doesn’t stick to her originally offered September timeframe, which is what I fear is going to happen, I think that is bad for a host of reasons.
We’ll know soon enough. This is one of those instances where I will be delighted to be wrong....
