Palin Waves Off Prez Talk, Hints at Bigger Role

She was greeted like a rock star in Unalakleet, a fishing village on the Bering Sea. She danced with Eskimos in Kotzebue. And she watched grizzlies at a wildlife sanctuary on the Kenai Peninsula.

In all, Sarah Palin has been on eight trips outside her Anchorage base since announcing her resignation two weeks ago. Is this a farewell tour, the start of a possible presidential campaign for 2012? .

.

Mrs. Palin said she is eager to resume life as a private citizen.

"Once I am 'Sarah Palin, Alaskan,' I can really call it like I see it," she said.

.

.

The Rev. Pat McCoy, pastor of the Lighthouse Baptist Church, said he understood why Mrs. Palin is stepping down.

"If I was her, I'd quit," he said. "Everybody just wants her all the time."

.

.

Mr. Ivanoff said he was saddened and angered by her sudden resignation because it would cost the state significant money and rob it of one of its most valuable resources -- Mrs. Palin herself.

If she continues in any public role, those records requests will continue.

I saw something last night that cracked me up....

“All these ‘experts’ on this topic are obviously operating from Bad Science, or BS as I call it.”

I love you Sarah Palin. You are a ray of light at the end of a very dark tunnel. You are the “hope and change” this country desperately needs. Go get ‘em girl!

Since Sarah's people started moving in to FR, Tina and Dave started making sense.

What are you talking about? We were here long before McCain selected her as his running mate in August. I suggest you check our sign-up dates and posting histories, bub.

Go Sarah Go !
HOW SARAH PALIN TRUMPS LIBERALISM



MORE DESIGNS HERE

Now Sarah will get her book out, go on tour, give speeches and promote conservatie principles all over this country in the midst of the Obama administration disaster and gain great political capital in the process. Then she will support conservative candidates in 2010 and help them win, amassing much more political capital. I still believe that she will then take all of that and make an awesome, stunning run for the Presidency in 2012, ending the Obama nightmare.

The protocol of tradition, the practicality of getting your ducks in a row and the reality of fundraising and the political lay of the land dictate that Sarah has to keep her cards close to the vest and not state that she is running for POTUS in 2012.

This is what academics call standard operating procedure (SOP).

Making over-the-top vicious attacks on Palin makes sense to you?

Say WHAT? I, for one, was here before you were. By about 4 years.

Interesting that you can justify the "over-the-top vicious attacks" at the same time that you denounce them. Why don't you take it over to DU where you might fit in a bit better with the bipolar schizo demographic.

"Once I am 'Sarah Palin, Alaskan,' I can really call it like I see it," she said.

...."Instead of the way those RINO's and defeatists in the Republican Party wanted it said or done."

let the fireworks celebrating the Palin Revolution begin at mid-night July 26/27, 2009. The bigger role is restoring America, not only defeating 0bama, but uprooting the cancerous media at the same time, I hope.
