'Mama Grizzly' Sarah Palin back on the prowl (Politico Deeply Saddened!)
Politico ^ | April 18, 2011 | Jonathan Martin

It's a fool's errand to use traditional indicators as definitive evidence that Sarah Palin is or is not running for president. If nothing else, she's made clear since her national debut two-and-a-half years ago that she plays by her own set of rules.

But her pugnacious speech over the weekend in Wisconsin, promotion thereof and re-launch of her PAC's website today, suggests that she very much wants to stay in the political conversation. As has been well-documented, Palin reads most everything written about her. So she surely didn't miss recent stories about her declining poll numbers and relative quiet. For one who relishes the fight, and the attention that comes with it, there is something far worse than being criticized and that's being ignored or written off.

After the last three days, that's not likely to happen again.

He should have stopped right there.


That’s really a good compliment coming from Martin. It admits that she has extraordinary leadership skills and the ability to think outside of the box. When you think about it, what other politician has been able to re-write the rules for campaigning? Who has ever survived such a media onslaught? Who has ever survived being attacked both by the democrats and the establishment Republicans? Maybe Reagan. She’s in good company.

I would hardly call Gov. Palin an “attention seeker.” It seems it’s attention that seeks her out. These media guys just can’t help themselves, they are always writing about her.

This reminds me of the story in which the disciples complained about Jesus allowing the woman to wash his feet. Who are you to say how others honor the Lord?

No, I don’t think she is an attention seeker; the writer of this piece seems to be calling her that. I am a proud Palinista!
