No. No one who is serious about winning a nationwide election would have made the comment about baptism by torture. At this point, she is pandering to her fan base and nothing more.
At some point, she seems to have realized that several factors, including the decision she made to quit as governor of Alaska sunk her chances of higher office.
Before anyone decides to try to school me on why she "really" quit, consider this: if she couldn't figure a way out of the issues she was having in Alaska, she doesn't qualify for the presidency. The problems America faces are huge, seemingly intractable, and don't just go away.
Sarah Palin got 2% in the CPAC straw poll last month - not the numbers someone so well-known would need to even think of taking to donors to finance a run for the presidency.
Seriously? 400 large in personal debt defending yourself because of 18 lawsuits with Soro's like dupes behind everyone of them and she refused to ask the State to pay because it wasn't the way Alaska was run isn't good enough for you? What would you have done in your life if the Progressive Minions took that much out your hide? Give me a break....
