Palin's window closing as Republican race gains steam

Palin has lost me. Her dinking around, will she, will she not, shows how indecisive she is.

[Clock King]

We are still 14 MONTHS out from the election. The primaries don’t start until February.

[upchuck]

I’m very hopeful but have stopped trying to outguess Sarah. She’s the boss on this.

[ken21]

Palin could come in in February and win.

[ChuteTheMall]

The big money is not yet flowing to Perry or Romney.

It’s being held back, to see what happens next.

If Perry can’t stop Romney, Palin will have to jump in and the money will follow her.

She wouldn’t even have to win the early primary games, just the final delegate count.

If these “strategists” only knew the size of Palin’s organization in Iowa, they would be stunned.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

Palin is not an ordinary candidate, and the ordinary leaders of the GOP do no want her, because they want the status quo.

In order to win the nomination, she has to outwit and outmaneuver them.

The longer she delays announcing her candidacy, the longer she keeps the ruling-class RINOs, state-controlled media, DemocRAT and Republican opponents, etc. in complete and total disarray.

And about that "she quit the governorship thing:

Democrats use the legal system to destroy their opponents.

They filed over 200 ethics complaints against her, not one of which was upheld.

It would have cost her upward of $500,000 in legal bills to defend herself, and it would have cost the state of Alaska millions, plus they would have had a governor embroiled in personal legal battles rather than the taking care of the state's business.

If she had stayed as governor of Alaska, Palin would have HAD to declare personal bankruptcy, and her act of staying WOULD have cost the State of Alaska many millions of dollars as the people in her administration had to do their part in defending the frivolous ethics charged Democrats leveled against her.

Had she stayed, right now you'd probably be saying:

"I'm not a big Palin supporter because I have never thought she was really capable of handling the fiduciary responsibilities that go with the office. If she'd managed to get through her term without having to declare bankruptcy and costing the state millions of dollars because of the ethics charges made against her, I'd feel more confident, but she seems to be unable to run her own financial house, on top of which her administration cost her state millions of dollars."

Palin is coming, and the Tea Party is coming with her.

[GeorgiaDawg32]

SHE knows what SHE will do. There is no indecisiveness. She plays outside the mold which is driving the MSM nuts.

Indecisive is..I’m in, I’m out, I’m in, I’m out..she isn’t doing that.

There is no doubt in my mind, should she decide to run, the race is over for the nomination.

[chainsaw]

Five months? That's a pretty fair amount of time. More hand-wringing projection...

The left just wants to know who to target with ads in advance. Let them get all their ad money spent then Sarah will jump in. The liberals will go nuts.

My wife doesn't like Sarah, so one night I asked her who she would vote for if Sarah was the GOP nominee. Obama or Palin. Without hesitation she said “Palin”!

[Virginia Ridgerunner]

(((((PING)))))

Funny how the exact same language about "closing doors and windows" for Sarah is suddenyl appearing here and there and everywhere this week. Seems that some detailed talking points have been sent out by parties unknown (or perhaps known?) to try and push Sarah into making an unforced error.

[Jagermonster]

If wishes were horses,
Then beggars would ride;
And if wishes were fishes,
I’d have mine fried.

[famousdayandyear]

Then, shy doesn’t she DECLARE—RIGHT NOW! What’s the delay?
Don’t panic; just askin.

[samtheman]

I’m not watching the resident right now. Or I missed him if his telePrompter is done speaking.

I can’t take the sound of a Kenyan teleprompter. Makes me kind of ill.

[A_perfect_lady]

I think they are right, but I wonder if she isn’t letting it close because she’s thinking 2016 would be better. Her kids will be older, Obama won’t be running, that sort of thing.

[lewislynn]

Palin's window closing as Republican race gains steam,

That's steam?

YAWN!

[RedMDer]

Game On!
"The other thing is she's [Palin] just not a team player. This is a team sport. Just take one little thing she did this week. ..She doesn't call the Republican Party of New Hampshire, tell them where she's going to appear, what she's going to do. So you got to play as part of the party, you got to play as part of the team. She's not a team player." !
Run, Sarah, Run

Don't blame Palin - she is not "dinking around"; neither is she indecisive. Your mainstream media is creating all the hoopla about "will she, will she not".

Palin has said publicly she will announce one way or the other by the end of September.

[Randy Larsen]

Tell Sarah that and she will kick your skinny ass!

[mazz44]

Please! It is not nice to skew the Facts. She said by late September.

Oh, and do yourself a favor and take some time researching Sarahs’ past debate performances. If last night was any indication, she will out-class, out-debate and out-articulate all of the other candidates. She is not only dynamic, but she does not mince words and her presentation, both physically and substantively will not be beat.

Yes, she is running. She has been for 3 years. She knows how to win. She is winning. She will win!
