I agree - I believe she was running (or planning to run ) the entire time - nothing else makes sense (given the speeches, bioptic, bus tours, etc). Something must have happened externally to force her to slam that door shut. Family? But I would have thought they would have thrashed that issue out a long time ago. Threats? Who knows... Her attempts at rationalization (”I can have more influence ‘unshackled’ from a campaign”) were frankly lame and non-sensical. As a Palin supporter, it doesn’t make sense. I can’t imagine she was intentionally stringing us and the country along.

I agree.....She’s not the type to “play a game with supporters”, “chase the money” ect, I don’t buy that.....Something closed that door and quickly.....One thing for sure as someone posted earlier, it is very short sighted to think she will have the same influence without the prospect of a Palin run for 2012.....Not going to happen.....She’s a threat to no one now....Not Obama, RINO establishment, no one....”Sticks and stones can break my bones, but words can never hurt me”....Without the prospect of power to make a change you are NO threat.....
