Still waiting to hear a good reason why she hasn’t yet declared.

“Not decided” might have been a good reason three months ago. Now it’s a bad reason.
Decided yes? Why wait to declare?
Decided no? Why wait to announce?

Come on. Suggest a reason why.

This is a prayerful family decision. The Palins have been harassed and received death threats. Even her parents. She is not taking this lightly. All of this has been posted before.

When you have a hostile muckraking author move in next door, and have to go to court against a real live active stalker family who threaten to rape and kill you and your daughters, while you are currently holding no public office, officially announcing for president will only increase the lethal craziness you and your family will have to endure.

There are some cynical theories about keeping her books, TV, speaking engagements “brand” more valuable by remaining a possible presidential candidate. I don't think so. I think her meeting with Trump had to do with wanting to make sure the Republicans had a strong, electable conservative (NOT Romney) as their candidate. As long as Palin and Trump publicly keep their options open, they remain a threat to the establishment moderate Republicans. Once both completely withdraw, they lose that outside influence on the party.

...my adjusted for inflation 2 cents.
