Logic, you are 'music' to my ears, because YOU are entirely DEAD ON!

SP 'KNOWS' how to campaign and 'WIN' against huge odds. I feel strongly (as you rightly point out), that she is strategizing and will playing to 'her' biggest strengths, with the biggest one being "ground troops". She will have control of the "ground" nationwide over all the other opponents - regardless of when she enters the race. So, based on this alone, she CAN PICK the TIME and PLACE of her choosing to ENGAGE!

- All warfare is based on deception.

- Hence, when able to attack, we must seem unable;
when using our forces, we must seem inactive; when we
are near, we must make the enemy believe we are far away;
when far away, we must make him believe we are near

- Hold out baits to entice the enemy. Feign disorder, and crush him.

If he is secure at all points, be prepared for him. If he is in superior strength, evade him.

[Logic n' Reason]

I believe Sun Tsu may have met his (or her, as the case may be) match!

We shall see.

But if and when Gov. Palin makes her stand, it will be up to us to do the fightin' along side her. She trusts us to do that and will lead us all the way.

Therefore, it is incumbent upon us to trust her.

Governor Palin will run if she knows in her heart that no other candidate will do the complete job that needs doing; that will be able to win the war she knows must be fought and won.

If I may, I believe this quote from General Patton describes what's coming, "We herd sheep, we drive cattle, we lead people. Lead me, follow me, or get out of my way!"
