GRETA VAN SUSTEREN: Do you have a favorite candidate for 2016?
SARAH PALIN: No, not yet.
VAN SUSTEREN: Nothing? Who is sort of your -- who is at the top of your list? Are you considering running?
PALIN: Who is at the top of my list.
VAN SUSTEREN: Let me back up to my other question.
PALIN: No, question at a time. I appreciate those who have fought for America, like Ted Cruz, like Rand Paul. You know though, it doesn't have to be someone who has a title today, someone in office today. In fact, some would say we need to stay clear of those who have followed a conventional political path. Maybe they are part of the problem. There are businessmen and women out there. There are strong family men and women who understand what it is that makes America exceptional and they want to protect that. They want to get back to that. Maybe someone like that will rise and be the candidate in 2016. Maybe that's what we need.
VAN SUSTEREN: Okay now I get to ask that question. Are you considering -- is it still within a possibility that you'll run in 2016?
PALIN: It sounds cliche, but you never say never. Now, I -- at this point in time, I don't have a team of people, you know, getting out there doing these poll-tested whatever they do to let you know if you should run or not. I don't have any of that kind of organization going. I'll never say never....

Then you’re a douche in this instance. Have a nice day.
That’s good unless she plays hard to get so long that she keeps another conservative from building momentum.
This may surprise you: I’d support her if she ran. But I don’t think she will.
It’s easy to understand. Anyone repeating leftist memes isn’t a conservative and should be treated accordingly. No need for aspirin. Just action.
How does one say bullshit in Crimean or Austrian?
I don’t know. How do you say “How so?”
That's not why she resigned. I suggest you read up a bit more on Sarah Palin, rather than just accepting the lies told by the left.
Since you’d never use the phrase “hard to get” about a male politician I now know a little bit more about your personality than I really care to.
She had ZERO to do with Milt being the nominee last cycle. Now do you get it? The fracking voters of the several states, many of whom were probably Democrats crossing over to give us a sh***y candidate, did that. If conservatives couldn’t drag themselves to the polling places, despite Johnny’s soccer game or Courtney’s dance recital or the game on TV, then we got who we deserved. Comprende?
Oh for heavens sake....you need to do a little research
She says things that make me think that she is wanting the people to draft her, maybe even in a third party bid. It’s like she believes it will take a revolution by the people to put her in the W.H. She knows that the establishment is more than she can overcome. I still say there is nobody on this planet who can stir a crowd like she can. CPAC loved her for over 45 minutes. She may not be such a good speaker on television talk shows, but with a crowd she is dynamite. She feeds on that interaction with the people.
Just heard the speech. Then the trashing by Fox.
Complete agreement here.
Ditto.
What did FOX say?
Conservatives did drag themselves to vote in the primaries, and they split their votes among several different candidates. Mitt got a plurality of primary votes, not a majority. In order to beat the establishment conservatives need to find a common candidate early so he can build momentum and raise a competitive campaign fund. That’s going to be even harder with the GOP-e working to make it tougher for a grassroots conservative to come from behind. Sarah should have decided not to run by early summer 2011. By her own admission, the latest practical date was August or September, but she waited until October, while hinting all along that she would be running a “different kind of campaign”, which turned out to be no campaign. Hopefully she has learned something from that, but you sure haven’t.
Well actually no. I consider Sarah Palin to be more than equal to most politicians. I believe she has the talent and instincts needed to be a great President. I would use the phrase”hard to get” to reference anyone who would hold out the possibility of running only to bow out after hurting the cause. If Sarah runs she’ll be on the top of my list.
I don’t know his name - I think it’s Greg whatever. Mocked her as giving little one-liners. Almost sneering. He actually said she sounded like Tina Fey.
Kilo Mike Alpha, over.
There are about a dozen Republicans who will do whatever they can to beat her for the nomination...and then the Dems will start in.
Greg Gutfeld?!
