Do I understand correctly that you want her to get in the game or carry the water bucket right now? Why? I hope it’s not to please you. I hope also that you’re aware that there might be a huge upside to not announcing right now simply to put a few people’s minds at rest, that there is much to be gained by letting the insignificants (Pawlenty, Johnson, Gingrich, Santorum), the delusionally optimistic (Romney, Bachmann) and the rest of the motley crew work themselves out of the race. Would it not be better for the marginally Republican voting group to tune in at around Thanksgiving and have to decide among only 3 or 4 who they’re going to vote for in the primaries? Palin could insert herself when 3 are left standing. Can you see any benefit at all to her going that route?
Her daughter says the decision has been reached, state what it is are lose more credibility.
