Um, when she announces, do you need to be on suicide watch?
We'll put crack people on your detail.

Woo Hoo - GO UTAH!!
Doesn’t have to. She just risks my vote. It’s
just one vote.
I just donated $100.00.

Just curious - why Nov 13th specifically?
“Reagan did not make it official until Nov 13th, 1979.”
Yes, Reagan did not make it official until......... NOVEMBER 13.
People here are pretty smart they will figure it out.
You can then sell tickets to see it and then donate that money to Sarah minus, of course, the cost of popcorn for all. ;)
I’m with FightforFreedomCA on this one. Sincerely doubt you were planning to vote for Sarah anyway if your impatience is all it takes to drive you away.
Sarah does things when she feels it is right for her. I guess that’s part of her success - she doesn’t jump through anyone else’s hoop. So if you want a candidate who does it your way, your timing - stick with Michelle.
He went through all the motions -- at least up until he took that vacation overseas.
But it doesn't look like he is in it to win it.
Palin may be running.
But I'd love to do all the stuff she's doing now without the downside of getting elected president.
Who wouldn't?
It’s almost a year before the election and that was the date Reagan declared.
Want to make the media go apoplectic, this is how you do it. They will spend the next year comparing Palin to Reagan. What are they going to say? Everything Reagan did, Palin did.
Add in a movie about how the media crucified her and pele will start to wake up.
This is going to be classic.

2D, did you walk today?

My take. I believe she has too much character to play coy and then bug out and run away from a fight vs Obama. I think, like me, she knows a second term of his would be a disaster. To wait and muddle through another four years would put our country at risk.
I think that most of her negatives were invented. She can overcome just by being herself and showing the electorate who she is, bypassing the press as much as possible.
Her decency shines through. It’s a kind of magic that I’ve not seen in a politician since RR. She defies easy analysis.
If I’m wrong about her and she does not declare,
There is even more to it. Here you go.
“Remember the 1980 Campaign:
During the summer of 1979, Ronald Reagan’s campaign reported that it was broke. The candidate had to explain his weak fundraising and big spending, as well as overcome doubts about his age and ability. The campaign faced the decision of closing its doors or accepting restrictive federal matching funds. Reagan lost the Iowa caucus. Not only that, the campaign also experienced a dramatic staff shake-up in the middle of the primary season. But by the spring of 1980, closing in on the nomination, the Washington Post wrote, “As Ronald Reagan sees it, the seeds of his victory in the Republican presidential contest were sown in the dark hours of defeat.”
As the second quarter of 1979 came to a close, Ronald Reagan did not lead the Republican candidates in fundraising. He didn’t even come in second. As a matter of fact, Reagan trailed Rep. Philip M. Crane of Illinois, former Texas Gov. John Connally, and former CIA Director George Bush. Reagan not only lagged in fundraising, he outspent the other candidates, burning through $1.3 million of the $1.4 million the campaign had raised. Things only got worse—by September, the campaign was $500,000 in debt. By January, the campaign ultimately decided to take federal matching funds and the strict spending limits that accompanied them.
In addition to financial distress, the campaign also endured internal staff disputes. In December, 1979, campaign director John Sears moved to oust a trio of close senior Reagan advisers: Lyn Nofziger, Mike Deaver, and Marty Anderson. Ronald Reagan then lost the Iowa caucuses to George Bush on January 21. Then, on the day of the New Hampshire primary, February 26, Reagan took the dramatic step of firing top leadership and bringing in Bill Casey. Many other top staffers also left, either being let go or resigning. Reagan ended up winning New Hampshire by a ratio of 2:1. Ultimately, when Ronald Reagan took control of his own campaign, he started to see successes. In this way, “the seeds of his victory” really were “sown in the dark hours of defeat.” By March of 1980, the National Journal reported that Ronald Reagan had a “commanding lead” for the Republican nomination.”
It’s now or never for America.
She’s already done kingmaker - more than anyone else has. Let someone else pick up that baton. Doubt anyone will.
Me too, I donated $120.12.
just got this tweet from @JedediahBila
The Final Pre-Announcement Reporting Period for SarahPAC Ends In a Couple of Hours/Open Thread http://t.co/VJvW1iE
I like that!
You got that right -- it's pathological. Seemed to reach its height right before the release of her (tens of thousands of) emails last month. The Left was frothing at the mouth like never before, expecting blood. The KNEW they'd find countless stuff with which to beat her on the head for the foreseeable future. When they found nothing, they went into a serious depression. Now they're venting their boundless hatred for conservative women at Bachmann, due to her recent impressive poll #s. But if Palin jumps in the race, they'll re-direct back to her again quickly.
Exactly. She’s about We the People and that is what the Tea Party is.
I wish she could wait until after the holidays, so she can enjoy them with her family. But, OK, Nov 13th it is. I marked 11-13 on my calendar - go to bank. ;)
It will be another thing to be thankful for on Thanksgiving Day.
