Is someone trying to sideline her?

[E. Pluribus Unum]

Sarah is going for brass ring!

[napscoordinator]

No surprise.

[Mr. K]

LET’S DO IT ANYWAY!!!!!!!!!!

[The Wizard]

she wants the real deal, not a support role.....and I want her as President.

[rockinqsranch]

Good for Sarah. I’ve seen over the last number of months posters here at FR suggest she should seek that job, but I think it would be one “H” of a waste of her talents, and makes me wonder about those FReepers.

[meadsjn]

... with its day-to-day rigors of managing the committee's 168 members - was never a workable one.

CNN still gets their snide jab in.

I'm absolutely certain Sarah could handle those "day-to-day rigors", but she has much bigger fish to fry.

[GeronL]

Good making her a powerless figurehead of the RINO National Committee will just destroy her credibility with the base.

Tea Party request

That has got to be the same wing of the Tea Party that endorsed the rat in my Congressional district.

[stevem]

This would be the worst job of them all for her.

[FTJM]

The next head of the RNC will have to do more than fund raise, although the fund raising will be very important for 2012. He or she will have to build up the GOP’s GOTV operations and recruit good candidates early in the process.

** ...and makes me wonder about those FReepers.**

I’ve noticed that a lot lately.. they seem to dislike all the women conservatives and only pop in to trash them..
I call them...

RINO TROLLS!!!

Sarah told ABC “NO” to RNC

But in an exclusive written statement to ABC News, Palin says:

“I respect the desire to have someone in charge of the RNC who understands the wishes of the conservative grassroots and understands that power resides with the people and not the vested interests in DC. However, the primary role of the RNC chair seems be that of fundraiser-in-chief, and there are others who would probably be much more comfortable asking people for money than I would be, and they would definitely enjoy it more.”

LOL. Excellent find, aphid!

Good! Waste of her time and abilities. Draft Mitt for the job.

[perfect_rovian_storm]

Good. This was among the dumber ideas from her detractors. And that’s saying a lot.

[NurdlyPeon]

I’m glad Sarah put an end to all this ‘Sarah should RNC’ garbage once and for all. On to the White House!!!

but I think it would be one “H” of a waste of her talents, and makes me wonder about those FReepers.

It would get her out of the way of Mitt and Huckster. That's what I think.

And it would be a total misdirection of her talents.
