"For what difference does it now make to anyone that Romney has announced his candidacy"

How many years has mittens been running? I've lost count.

It is transparently obvious that those who insist on pinning Sarah Palin down to specific dates FEAR her. Therefor, they seek to impose on her candidacy arbitrary "rules" which, if she "violates" them, they can declare her candidacy to be invalid.

Those who exhibit the most fear so far are The Media, The Entrenched GOP Establishment, and Freepers who back a different candidate that they fear will be swept aside by a Palin entrance.

Those that have repeatedly attempted to nail Palin down to a date at which she must declare her candidacy or the games is over, are therefore either ignorant of the facts or purposely attempting to mislead the people.

But didn't I read the deadline for some primaries is as early as mid-October?

"are the very same people who’ve had no problem when other candidates such as Perry has retracted his promise from the 2010 campaign not to run for the presidency."

If he "retracted" this promise, I will expect him to retract ALL his "promises".

I will NEVER vote for a RINO again. I only voted in 2008 because I voted for Sarah. I thought once her and that one she tried to drag across the finish line were in office, she'd set him straight.

But that fool messed everything up "suspending his campaign" to get back to DC to vote FOR the bailout. I believe we were ahead before that blunder......which I think he did on purpose.

I don't think mclame actually wanted to be President.

Maybe.

But I wouldn’t bet on it. I think inaction and silence is also a possibility.

Ultimately, a decision will be made and we will all be privy to it. Those who’ve mocked and derided her for stringing along her supporters while not planning to run and seeking only publicity and attention will probably be proven wrong, and left to scramble with something somewhat comprehensible in response, while those who’ve had to deal with the scorn and endless name-calling will watch in amusement. For those who laugh last, laugh best.

I couldn't have said it better. Thanks.

A Palin Victory Doesn't Depend on a Date

Nope. It's Palin's way or the highway.

By golly-gosh-darned - she make the rules.

There's a new boss in town and she'll decide when the trains run.

And if you miss the stop - too golly-darned bad.

It's all Palin - all the time
All the way!
It's Palinpalooza...

And on 11/06/2012, it doesn't matter who wins. Because Palin will win - even if she doesn't run. She won't even have to be sworn in. She'll be "miracled" into office.

Right. Never mind that she made a commitment to announce by September, so as not to string people along. Little things like keeping her word don’t matter.

Another C4P classic. Get on board before it's too late LOL.

A Palin victory won’t have a faux Roman coliseum for a victory arena.

Nor will her campaign be a 24/7 onslaught on the air waves blaming others.

Her message will be brief, honest and to the point, all the rest will imitate her to strive to even be close to her rising popularity.

This election will NOT be bought and paid for, America has wizened up how the money shuffle is working for the dems.

Another thing that makes me very mad is that Sarah Palin has NEVER said she was going to run for president and she has not given any indication that she would be announcing as a candidate.

If she runs, it will be as a 3rd party candidate.

Well, it certainly depends on one date: October 28, which is now the last day to file for the NH primary (up until last week, it had been October 31, for FL).

Despite repeated assertions, neither Utah (the supposed cutoff date is for non-affiliated, i.e., minor party, candidates) nor Michigan (someone read November as October, and somehow it stuck) have earlier registration dates.

The dates follow fast and furious after that, and no one can afford to give away potential delegates and still hope to win the nomination.

That said, the main point of the article is correct — come January, no one’s gong to care who entered the race in May, June, July, August, or October (no entries in September). They’re going to care about what kind of candidates they see, on what principles they’re campaigning and how they’re going about it.
