I am glad to hear that, SP will be vindicated.

[Huck]

I think it’s possible the National Enquirer had the goods back in September. Wouldn’t be the first time.

[CynicalBear]

Amen and Amen!

[No!]

Well, something happened....

[Waywardson]

Fact is, it's Myth's turn and the GOP ruling-class will anoint him as the candidate.

And he will lose, big time.

You are 100%. Only she could bring the Populists out of the Obama camp and vote GOP. None of the others could, can or will. Surely not Mittens.

Leadership IS Sacrifice. Leadership IS Risk. Leaders DO that. We needed a LEADER. Hearing, none, seeing none. Will the last conservative out please get the lights...

[samantha]

I truly believe that some of these PDS’ers would stand by and watch the Rape of her entire Family and not lift a finger to stop it. Maybe one in 20 even stuck up for her at all under all the onslaught of vicious rumors,and accusations.

[magritte]

“godly leader” ?

Yikes.

[samantha]

I think you are very wrong,her influence will be more than it was before.

We will contribute to Sarahpac to renew that influence,and have her donate to the conservative candidates that will put a whoop ass on the Rats next year.

I’ll give her the benefit of doubt on any drama in her life being the issue. I just think she did calculations and came up with the conclusion that this wasn’t going to work this time.

[samantha]

Stop being a doofus, she never got into the race. You cannot quit something you are not in.

You sound like DU.

[samantha]

If you are not stalking or trolling what in the hell are you doing on a thread that you just pick and pick and pick? Give it a rest,have you no shame?

Are you that nutty,or are you soooooooooo lonely, you cannot help yourself?

[PhiloBedo]

A very likely scenario. It’s going to take a long time to recover from the damage done by barry, and yes, GWB’s big government policies.

It’s not going to be pretty.

[PhiloBedo]

What’s your theory, hotshot?

[Lazlo in PA]

Give it a rest,have you no shame?

Shame about what? Discussing politics on FR? That is the point of this place after all. Can you point to this so called picking you mention?

[AFreeBird]

The ruthless have been embedded in our government for far too long. Access to a printing press is quite an incentive. What you suggest is not outside the realm of possibility.

[alstewartfan]

I don’t believe it either, but I’m shocked and mystified about her decision, AFTER ALL THESE MONTHS OF KEEPING PEOPLE HANGING. I do suspect that it was her girls who wanted it all to end, not realizing that it can NEVER end for Sarah and them. The left is evil, period, but just like Israelis who favor negotiations with vicious people who want to kill them, the girls probably haven’t accepted the fact that the conflict is intractable. Bob

[Windflier]

Thank you for putting in words, what so many of us are thinking right now.

[Just mythoughts]

Sarah said it was a ‘family’ decision. So maybe her husband was NOT willing to spend the next year on the campaign trail. I will take Sarah at her word that her family comes first. LORD knows they have been ridiculed beyond common decency. NOT one in the jonstewart media ever said enough was enough. Look at the freaks on Fox, they are no better or different that the other alphabet liberal newsmakers. (Well, maybe a couple of exceptions on Fox.)

people who were dead wrong about Palin's intentions and are looking for ways to explain how they misjudged the situation so badly.

That simply isn't true for most of Palins supporters....it's just not....they need no explanation other than what Palin has given...and that settles the matter period...for now.

I think the question really is :

"Why do those who said and say now that Palin...(fill in the blanks)......CONTINUE to oppose her and her supporters even after she has said she is not running?"

.....What is it about Palin which keeps people 'engaged' despite themselves?... It's all over these threads as evidence.....

What is it that she can fill the minds of people so that even her opposition cannot let go now...??????

It is an easy thing to understand the disappointment expressed by her supporters here, and quite natural it be so. What is difficult to understand is the hearts and minds of those who insist STILL to rake Palin and her supporters over the coals?????

There is something quite sinister about this...seemingly like those we see in these protests....their purpose scrambled, their intentions mixed...and their "agenda" hardly known even to themselves....but apparent to the discerning.

[caww]

The righteous will always have the last laugh and the final victory--in ways we don't always see beforehand.

Now that is worthy of pondering as many, myself included, lift our heads up from this great disappoinment.

Gods not finished with this country...He's been shaking it now for several years and many still aren't listening..... All this shaking causes cancerns for all,.... but one thing I do know,.... no matter the outcome of any of these candidates He says HE IS THE ONE who raises up leaders and brings down others..... It's His call when all is said and done.... and He will create the environment He chooses to bring about not only who will sit in the office of Pres. but exactly in accordance to His plan for this nation and the world.

I sometimes think He is allowing us to become weaker, while He allows the nations to move and position themselves, because He knows this Nation would step in for all the right reasons.... and the only way to keep us from interfering, as things develope, is to weaken us for a time...as the World Stage is being set...thus we got Obama the weakest most absurd individual to ever hold this office.

I agree with Palin's decision....we are going to see her continue to remind this nation of what we all allowed to slip thru our fingers...and no Government will muzzle or constrain her freedom to do that in the capacity she serves this nation now...and will in the days ahead.
