Yep, Reagan announced quite late.
Sarah is saving us a lot of money already, by not announcing with the rest of the pack. Every week she waits, saves who knows how much in costs? Let the other guys blow their wad now. We’ll save our ammo for a while longer.
Cheers!
The primaries are starting earlier now. For instance, Super Tuesday in 1980 (I don't think it was called that then) was held June 3. In 2008, it was held February 4. In 2012, it will be held February 7.
Newt, Santorum, the Governor of Utah, and the other guy who also is a former governor will be gone by the middle of September. Her name recognition is great and she has a grass roots base that is unprecedented in national politics. She has also got to know that hundreds of thousands of people are waiting for her decision prior to making a financial commitment to anyone else. She will be able to raise all the money needed to beat Obama.
