Actually he stated that the Democrat Party quit him. But he did quit smoking. :)
Hmm...I didn’t think about that. If that statement was a lie, she’s not culpable at all.
I kept reading she was committed to spaek...so someone was blowing smoke.
I hope she starts her Long March to the presidency soon!

The statement from Meg was posted on FR.
He can if he’s making stuff up to gain listeners. Palin’s spokesperson says otherwise.
So, who are you supporting for president in 2012?
That would make sense.

As stated in the Palin press release, the event is sponsored by the Simi Valley Republican Women and they are holding it at the Reagan Library. The Library is not a sponsor and I guess their website does not list non-Reagan Library functions, which makes sense.
CD, Sarah never released info like that.
I saw some days ago Meg’s comments and Simi kept
going along like Meg never made the comments.
Simi used her name without acting on the reality of Sarah’s spokesperson’s comments.
Sarah and Meg (Sarah’s spokesperson) never confirmed this event.............Sarah is in NY vacationing with the kids, Todd, and meeting with Harper Collins............
No, it was on the website, I think it was the Simi Valley Women’s republican club. I saw it myself.
An authentic conservative with the gonads/ovaries to go toe to toe with the liberals and make them back down. So far none of the Republicans putting their name out there fit that description and that includes Palin. WE CAN AND MUST DO BETTER!
all true what you said but then you assumed the rest to expose your ignorance...seems you are eat up w/ it too
Then they got it wrong. Sorry, but I trust Palin’s official spokesperson over anything else, including the SVWRC and Ziegler.
I don't recall addressing my post to you.
Palin is the only one who has gone toe to toe and in the trenches against the Liberals. If she isn’t a conservative, no one is.
I worked for Reagan when he ran for Gov. and
Sarah Palin is the closest person today like him.
Only she can draw the crowds and energizes them. the
others mentioned look and speak like funeral directors

Rush Limbaugh defended Palin and heralded her as the “most prominent and articulate voice” for conservatism
Ah, the real story is Sarah never planned on attending the event, as was confirmed by her spokesperson...That's a little strong, Rin.
The way that I understand the words of Meg's statement were that Governor Palin never CONFIRMED that she would be there.
You may not realize it, but the many local "Republican Women Federated" groups in California are the HEART of the conservative movement (such as it is) here in California.
And, they do some truly AMAZING work out here getting Republicans registered, getting out the vote, and otherwise energizing the conservative base out here to oppose the hard-core leftist agenda of California legislature -- and now also the leftist agenda of our "girly man" Governator, and more recently, of our Marxist president.So, I cannot imagine that they would promote an event billed as "An Evening with Sarah Palin" without SOME kind of encouragement from Governor Palin's staff -- at least INITIALLY, when this event was first planned, last February.
I will concede that the RWF groups are almost all VOULUNTEERS -- and as such not seasoned professionals.And, for THAT failing, I fault the Palin staff. Maybe they were just trying to be nice, and not hurt the feelings of this small local group of supporters. But they HAD to have seen all the MASSIVE national coverage of this impending appearance.And, I can understand that in their zeal to promote what would understandably be an EXTRAORDIANRY forum for Sarah Palin, making one of her first public appearances since resigning as Governor of Alsaka debut in the home of the Gipper, they would have downplayed any gentle discouragement from the Palin camp, that she probably wouldn't be able to make it -- hoping that she would be there anyway.
But I DO NOT believe that they ever got the much-needed "tough love" announcement that Governor Palin would absolutley NOT be there -- until the press release one week before the event.
While I understand that they cannot deny EVERY ONE of the many "scheduled appearances of Sarah Palin" announced, they really needed to get out there in front of THIS one -- much sooner.
So, I see this as more of an unfortunate MISUNDERSTANDING than as a "rumor" -- or worse.
And I truly believe that SVRWF acted in good faith (if misguided) -- rather than from malice.
Now that I know the date I found at least one story posted on FR:
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2304848/postsAnd some of the comments are very telling:
See, I knew it, people put her names on events that she has not even committed to attending. This is exactly what the media wanted, to say “See, she flaked out of another event” when in reality she NEVER said she was attending.

Still, her PR people have got to get a better grip on this—whether it’s not leaving ‘maybe’ acceptances hanging or setting the record straight more quickly. I’m not sure what’s at the root of the problem.

Reagan was never being sued toward bankruptcy by leftist thugs. Nor were his children called whores and retards.
Palin is not a quitter. She did what was best for her family.
To be clear, Palin helped design the ethics laws that she now criticizes as being abused. Her other reason for quitting was a self declared lame duck status 18 months before the end of her term.
The big shots in NY Rep. party wanted Teddy gone. So, they forced him, to take the Rep. nomination with McKinley.
In a smoke filled room, the big shots all felt good about themselves. All of a sudden, one of them stands up and says, “Do you know that cowboy is one breath away from the Presidency?”
Unfortunately, McKinley was assassinated, and Teddy became one of our greatest Presidents.......
By the way, there is a new book out about Teddy. It is called “Wilderness Warrior”.......I haven't read the book yet, but it is on my night stand...........
