Dontcha know, Sarah Palin is coming to town this weekend, and you may see her cruising the streets of D.C. on the back of a hog.
The former Alaska governor, who is the subject of a lot of overheated speculation about whether she will run for president in 2012, has accepted an invitation to participate in the annual Rolling Thunder memorial ride this Sunday, an official says.
As far as I know, she is trying to rent a motorcycle, so she can ride with her husband, said Nancy Regg, a spokeswoman for Rolling Thunder.
Gregg says the tentative plan is for Palin to join up with the ride at the Pentagon at 7 a.m. The ride kicks off at noon, and hundreds of bikers will snake through D.C. to the events main stage, which will be between the Reflecting Pool and the Korean War Veterans Memorial on the Mall. The program is scheduled to kick off at 1 p.m.
Gregg said Palin is currently not scheduled to speak at the event and watchers should not expect any type of political statement from Palin during Rolling Thunder.

The media gave her the "Quayle" treatment in '08, with the crap about who bought her wardrobe, etc., so it'd be even worse if she were at the top of the ticked in '12.
However, I'd bet that the press would keep their powder dry during the primaries, so they could blow her out of the water during the general.
Senator Ben Nighthorse Campbell used to have a bobber / drag bike type chopper that was to die for.
Man to see them roll in on Custom Harley Machinery like that would rankle the Betway/East Coast Bre and Red Wine Crowd so bad it is enough to make me take a long position in the makers of "Kaopectate"
For the record that was not stock advice, but my twisted humor :-)...
You are going to be stunned at the breadth and depth of her "following."
And how much time and money they are going to devote to her.
I remember Arnold the Swartz got booked for not having a proper motorcycle license or helmet in CA....
it turned out he was riding a SIDECAR outfit and thus exempt....
what a girly man---a sidecar Harley....
something 0bambi would do.
That is just more of the media attempts to lie about the size of the crowd at any conservative event.The media ,in lockstep with the leftists, is trying really hard to convince everyone that conservatives are a tiny fringe group that should be ignored by all save the FBI.
true.
Tina theactresswhoseonlyclaimtofameisimmitatingpalin must be praying Palin does not run.
bachman has come out with a “i am not palin” type of statement.
What more can they do? All they got is calling her stupid! We shall see then whether or not they are right when she debates the others and what issues she push, I wouldnt underestimate her and that’s what I read that all of her fierce political enemies in Alaska have said on record “it would be foolish to underestimate her”
By next year - if the economy is in the crapper like it is tday - I think she can win.
Does she know how to ride a motorcycle? If not, this is a bad idea. I’ll bet someone will come out and say they weren’t able to find a bike for her, or she’ll show up on a three-wheeler...

Sarah Palin is a NATURAL BORN CITIZEN unlike Barry Soetoro aka Barack Hussein Obama.
But that's not the way Liberals are wired.
They will attack and lie about her at every opportunity...The mere mention of her name drives them over the edge of any rational thought.
I don't doubt it. But I don't think that a lot of them realize the disdain that a lot of independent non-political types have for her. It may be the media's fault on a lot of it, but the reality show and the Levi Johnston fiasco are much more likely to pop into people's heads when they think about her, rather than any of her political ideas.
I think she'd make a great Secretary of Energy.
Who is wizbang?
here is the interesting thing.
Rolling Thunder organizers usually meet with the US president.
There were pictures here with GWBush accepting a present from the organizers.
I bet there is even one with clinton.
Just believe everything Christine Matthews tells you.
It will serve you well.
Even if every single word is a lie, which I believe it to be, they have this for starters:
True dat!
Tina F. would benefit from President Palin. Since she's a one-trick pony, she could spend 8 years doing her Palin schtick.
