I’ll be at the event. I hope to see her announce. But last week at the Iowa State Fair, she was asked by a local reporter if she would have an announcement by the next time (Sept. 3) we (Iowans)see her. She said no, that a couple of weeks was not enough time to come to her decision. She went on to say that in fairness to supporters and potential supporters, it would be by the end of next month, though.

FWIW. YMMV.

Well, loose lips, sink ships and talking to a reporter would spoil everything!

I hope the Indianola TEA PARTY event is her ANNOUNCEMENT DAY!!!!

I read where she told a reporter (I believe it may have been Peter Hamby of CNN) that she would not be a candidate when she came to Iowa. That doesn't mean she won't become one there, although I have no idea what she's actually going to say on Sept. 3. I know she wants to be the last one in.

I'm ready whenever she is, I know that much.

She said that she wouldn’t be a candidate when she returns to IA on September 3rd but said nothing about being a candidate when she leaves.

(P.S. Perry declared on that Saturday but wasn’t an official candidate until that Monday when the paperwork was official)

it would be by the end of next month,

IMO, she's still watching the candidates. That's what she always said about her running or not - if there was a need or not. Like we all know about Sarah, it's not about her but our country.

That’s disappointing - my gut told me since I heard it that she was going to announce and it’s rarely wrong. I’ve had my tag since early this year and my guts not giving up. :)
