*“Polls? Usually I say polls are for strippers and cross-country skiers.”

Ooops...watch if the press comments that a stripper pole is spelled differently than a “poll”. I’ll bet they do.

Ouchy!!!! She just pissed off everyone- and I love it!!!!

She completely owns the Tea Party with this speech, and anyone claiming otherwise is full of it- or copying her 'plan'.

As soon as she said it, I told my husband, I bet the media can’t wait to tell us how dumb she is over that. lol. I loved the comment though.

Now tell me she's not running.

She's not running.

She's sauntering.

It must suck to be the other candidates and just *know* you're being toyed with. It must be how the mouse feels while waiting for the cat to stop playing and inflict the killing strike.

Cheers!

Why bother presenting her "platform", especially one for re-structuring the entire corporate business model for the USA, if she doesn't plan to win the White House?

Why bother to float the line “The real challenge is not whether we will replace Obama in 2012, but who we will replace him with.”

While she absolutely did not say "I am running for President in 2012," she did make it absolutely clear that she intends to.

IMEO ("In my expert opinion"--I'm an expert at espressing my opinon) LOL

It was a play on words, was clearly intentional and worked only in a spoken context, so I don’t think the media can say much of anything.

I’m not a big Palin supporter because I have never thought she was really committed to running and I’m still not sure she is. If she had stayed as governor of Alaska, I’d feel more confident, but she seems to take up things and then drop them.

However, she has some great ideas, and what she needs to do is to prove that she’s really committed to promoting them and that she can work within the GOP and not set up a 3rd party.

Thou shalt not speak ill of The One from Wasilla, is that it? Or at least give the appearance of doing so?

Frankly I would love to see her announce this week, and have a real debate between her and Perry starting on Wednesday and continuing in the months to come. I think we would all be served by a clear idea of where they both stand on the issue so the party can rally around one or the other. The longer she waits, the more the conservative wing would be divided between the two of them with Bachmann taking a small percentage. That only benefits Romney. And I really don't want to have to vote for him in 2012.

Here is the key to the speech (starts about 2:25:13) :

"And I can tell you from hard-earned experience with bumps and bruises along the way that the road ahead is not easy. You will be demonized. They'll mock you. They'll make things up. They'll tell you to go to Hell. But we'll bite our tongue we'll keep it classy and we won't respond as tempting as it is to anyone who has such disdain for our free-market economy and for individual initiative and responsibility; we won't say, 'No, you go to Hell.' No we won't say that. We won't say that. You know why we don't have to say that? Because when we have time-tested truth and logic on our side, we WIN. And, when we refuse to retreat because we know that our childrens' future is at state, we WIN."

This is the key. She's in it. The Mama Grizzly defending her children.

Game ON!!!

Cheers!
