Sarah Palin would make a great president, but that does not mean she should run.

She should only run if she wants to be president,,,, and more importantly, give up everything to run.

Right now, she can be out of the public eye when she wants to be, in when she wants. She is the Republican kingmaker. Another defeat, which, considering the media aligned against her and their influence on the 17-20% middle-of-the-road voters who decide elections would probably happen, would finish her in the kingmaker role and drastically cut into her earning potential.

I strongly believe she will choose not to run, be a huge force in helping elect a Conservative republican in 2012, and remain a $20 million a year kingmaker in the Party.

I really don't understand WHY people like you don't understand that should Palin not run, her influence and moneymaking abilities all fall off the edge of the proverbial cliff.

If she doesn't enter the fray, a very large number of her supporters will throw her under the bus.

Since she is hardly ever on FNC, most people there hate her ( Greta and Sean are the exceptions ), what makes you believe that by not running, she gains anything?

Nobody will care what she says, writes, and/or does, if she doesn't run. And no, losing won't hurt her at all; it's the not running that will.

"KINGMAKER"? Is that akin to "cheerleader"? LOL

"..........give up everything and run."? What, exactly, are her job/s right now?

Are you also demanding that the other candidates/possible candidates "give up EVERYTHING" ? If not, why not ?

I strongly believe she will choose not to run...

Don't know why you'd say that, when every possible sign points to her running - and soon.

First of all, she didn't quash the rumors and expectations of her making a 2012 run, when they really stepped up a full year ago. If you understand Sarah Palin at all, you know that she would not leave most of the country hanging on the edge of their seat until this late date, just to announce that she's NOT running.

She loves and respects the American people far too much to do such a thing. She also respects our political process too much to allow any indecision on her part to unduly affect the nominating contest. There is far too much at stake in this election, and she (of all people) well knows this.

If Sarah were to announce that she's not running, it would be a let-down of catastrophic proportions for millions upon millions of Americans, who are praying each and every day that she is going to lead the charge back to a restored America. You think she doesn't know that?

Do you think she might also understand that if she dashes the sincerest hopes of that many people, that she'll never be trusted again?

Don't you think that she would have talked Stephen Bannon out of making The Undefeated, if she had any intention to stay out of the race?

Come on, now. This isn't that hard to deduce. She's running.

Don’t think that Sarah is not running. I think that Bristol let the cat out of the bag and told what Sarah said, was to be kept on the boat. I think she is quietly setting up her communications network and is testing out its circuits. Her campaign needs to be quick to react to the enemy’s media hits which will be wide spread and stinking with lies.
