Shes not running. Shes not going to run. Sounds like a mantra or a desperate plea to me. Are you going to switch to "she can't win" after she joins the race?

No desperation here, it's all in the cult of Sarah camp--mind you that's only a small number of Sarah fans, but they are the folks who are so desperate that they will tear down any other candidate with their lies.
As for the rest, I've already said she can't win. She is carrying too much damage from her Veep run. Read the polling data--not just one poll, but every poll that has been taken. She can't win, but she can almost certainly guarantee that Romney will.
That is the only concern that I have. Perry can and will beat Romney and we will have the first conservative President since Reagan, but if Palin runs and draws a significant following, the best she can do is to split the conservative/base vote and give Romney the ticket.
Sarah should have announced Saturday if she was going to run. She has been playing it just too cute if she still intends to run--which I doubt. She has a better understanding of her electability--or unelectability--than her cult followers do. She knows she is still capable of being influential within the party, but she also knows the limits of her popularity and influence.
If she doesn't and she's playing a Fred Thompson, then she's not nearly as smart as I thought and she has forgotten what happened with Fred.
