Any chance she runs as a Third Party candidate representing the Tea Party?

I don't think so. We are in the process of taking over the Republican Party. This next election is crucial in our fight to take back and restore our constitutional government. Palin for president as a Republican is a must in our endeavor to reach that goal, along with a host of new tea party minded congressmen and senators getting elected.

Some may ask why Palin? Because I believe she is the only one who understands the problem and has the desire and ability to take on an entire ingrained Washington DC establishment. This will truly be a reform movement by, for and of The People.

I agree with everything you said.

I'm making a point of this as a significant component of taking the Republican Party back.

As an analogy, look at the budget battle. Republican Party leadership began with a cutback number of $100 Billion. But, during negotiations, the leadership took their main bargaining chip off the table, the shutting down of the Government. As a result, the final compromise number was $352 million.

The budget battle not only reflects how weak Republican Party leadership is, it also indicates they don't truly take the Tea Party seriously.

Like the budget battle, if we want to take back the Republican Party, I believe our strongest bargaining chip is the possibility splitting off as a major Third Party.

I know the conventional wisdom says, a Third Party will likely give Obama another term. I also know that another “Moderate” Republican nominee, whom the Party Leadership seems destined to support, will definitely us the same.

“This will truly be a reform movement by, for and of The People.”

Sounds like fun.
