No, that loser Keene’s gone. He was her big hang-up.

Why now? For one thing, she can square it with her conscience, since the jerk who kept putting GOProud at the center of attention has been ousted. He almost succeeded in destroying CPAC by making it into advocacy central for gay activism. I don’t blame Sarah for not saying why she was avoiding the last few conventions, but she was certainly right to do so.

And now that the puke has been cleaned up, hopefully things will be different at the next CPAC convention.

“Santorum or Gingrich endorsement? Something else?”

Yes, something else. In the media hype over picking a presidential nominee, everybody else seems to be forgetting we are also selecting candidates in these primary electios for Senate and House, not to mention statehouses, Governors etc.

My prediction is Palin will continue where she left off in 2010 when her party-building efforts led to the Republican majority in the House and the historic Tea-Party turnaround.

I believe your assessment is spot on. She seems to be one of the few high profile Republicans who realizes that the top of the ticket doesn't mean squat if we don't get the rest of the deal right.

Santorum... I appologize for not having all the bells and whistles the other posters do, yet I do believe in Rick Santorum for our next CIC.

Let’s hope she can set CPAC back on the right path. Pun intended.

"Sarah! Endorse Newt or Ricky S.... NOW! Time to make a decision or go away."

Spoken like a partisan-warped Cainservative.

LMAO!!!

Hate to poop on your cupcakes, but I'm pretty sure she's going to announce her surprise candidacy there. She did promise that, if she ran, we could expect a very "unconventional" run. This would fit.

Very nicely, indeed...

8^\

(P.S.) To all the Palinophobic nanny-complex wannabe-mommies and the "Stop with the teasing, I just can't take it any more!!!" drama queens out there, don't waste yout time telling me to "Let it go."

For as long as I draw breath, I will do everything in my considerable power to see to it that Sarah Palin runs for President in 2012.

If she doesn't end up President, it will not be because I didn't give it everything I could. And nothing is going to change that... least of all some Palinophobic nanny-complex wannabe-mommy, or some "Stop with the teasing already, I just can't take it any more!!!" drama queen.

February 11 is her birthday. I would love for her to either announce on endorse on her birthday.

Thanks. We really need a veto proof Congress, just in case Mitt gets the nod (he is every bit as dangerous as Obie).

I know I'm going to be accused of being a troll, but I simply cannot stay silent here. Sadly, some still want to delude themselves that what Palin has to say now that she's no longer a presidential candidate, still holds has much weight and relevance as it did when she was running. Sorry, but seeing that this was posted at 6:56 pm, and there are a mere 14-15 comments confirms that Palin no longer generates the excitement that she did when she was a potential presidential candidate.

I was a huge Palin supporter, but rejected the notion that she would be as effective as a private citizen, as she was as a potential presidential contender. Doubt me? Ask yourself why the media is no longer going after her? The answer is easy...they NO LONGER SEE HER AS A THREAT AS A PRIVATE CITIZEN.

While i know it won't happen; if she did announce that she changed her mind and decided run, everything would change. Folks would cling onto every word she says.

Just my 2 cents.

Um, she was never a presidential candidate. She was the Republican vice presidential nominee in 2008, is that what you’re referring to?

In some ways, Milt is more dangerous than Mr. Obama. He will be painted as a “conservative Republican” by the media (see Nixon, Dubya and Bush 41 as examples) and every “reach across the aisle” fiasco will be ascribed to his being conservative. Lose/lose.

I clarified my statement further in my post when I said “potential presidential candidate.” Sorry for the confusion.
