“I think, though — and I’m going to take heat for saying this, Greta, but I think some of them don’t want to go there because they have been participants in some of the waste and casting votes for budgets that are full of waste just to go along to get along, or in their own states. They haven’t tackled debt and deficit spending to the degree that they should. So they don’t have a real strong record to stand on.”

In other words, some of them have already sold out. Is Governor Palin the only one who hasn’t?

And remember when the media went a little bit crazy and demanded to see my 25,000 e-mails that I had written during my term as governor. In those e-mails, there is proof of there that the issue arose while I was governor of Alaska. And the e-mails reflect my -- my principle there was, No, government, stay out of the lives of family decisions like that, and do not tell a parent that their daughter must be immunized. ....... And it was a -- it was kind of an illustration or a big of evidence of some crony capitalism.

Using those leaked emails to back up her case. Great answer. The girl is on top of things.

It looks like Merck was shopping a “solution” to a “problem”. Some bit and others didn’t.

PALIN: Yes, I was pleased. I was very happy with it. Let me go back to that issue with Governor Perry. I was governor of Alaska at the time that that issue came down, and I told our health and human services department Alaska was not going to mandate immunizations for our teenage daughters. And there had to have been something to that whole issue because it just didn't sound like Governor Perry. Governor Perry was, you know, the proverbial anti-government type of maverick there in Texas, and yet on this issue, he decided that he was going to know better than a parent was going to know in terms of what the health care or health benefit would be for their teenage daughters. So I knew there was something to it. And remember when the media went a little bit crazy and demanded to see my 25,000 e-mails that I had written during my term as governor. In those e-mails, there is proof of there that the issue arose while I was governor of Alaska. And the e-mails reflect my -- my principle there was, No, government, stay out of the lives of family decisions like that, and do not tell a parent that their daughter must be immunized. So we know. I knew even at that time something was up with that issue, and now we're finding that, yes, something was up with that issue. And it was a -- it was kind of an illustration or a big of evidence of some crony capitalism.

Right here Palin said she was well aware of Perry's corruption on HPV while she was still Gov, yet she endorsed him heartily for his Gov run a year later. Seems like there is either some deficiency in Palins judgement or she really didn't think this was an issue of corruption. Something doesn't add up here based on Palins own words last night.

[justsaynomore]

Sarah Palin says she is not afraid to call out fellow Republicans when she thinks they have been “part of the problem.” On Monday night, Palin accuses Republican candidate for President Rick Perry of engaging in “crony capitalism.” Perry, as governor of Texas, mandated that young girls get a vaccination for the HPV virus in an executive order. Perry is criticized for this in part because of his connections to the drug manufacturer Merck.

“Michelle Bachmann pointed out that Governor Perry’s former chief of staff who then went to work for a drug company who made the drug that would be required of the Texan government to mandate that our young daughters would have to be inoculated against a potential disease from this company that his former chief of staff was lobbying for. That is crony capitalism. That’s part of the problem we have in this country. People are afraid, even within our own party to call one another out on that. True reform and fighting the corruption and fighting the crony capitalism is a tough thing to do within your own party. You have to go up against the big guns. And they will try to destroy you, when you call them out on the mistakes that they have made. Believe me I know that. I have the bumps and bruises to prove it, because that’s what I’ve been doing the last 20 years, local, state then on the VP trail, different levels of government, calling out the corruption in government. Michelle Bachmann tried to make that point tonight,” Palin told Greta on FOX News.

I’m glad Palin went there. I have been pointing out that Perry is not as conservative as he would like to promote himself as and I was told a few weeks ago by a FReeper that Palin thinks Perry is conservative and that is enough for him. When she does thing like this, it makes me trust her judgment more.

“That someone, as Michele Bachmann pointed out, was Governor Perry’s former chief of staff, who then went to work for a drug company who made the drug that would be required of the Texan government to mandate that, that our young daughters would have to be inoculated against potential disease from the company that his former chief of staff was lobbying for. That’s crony capitalism.”

Good that Palin is against crony capitalism. Can somebody tell me where the candidates stand on ethanol — that will determine who is really serous about it.

“getting a kick out of getting out there, giving a speech, making some statements about things that must be discussed, and then the very next day watching some of the candidates get out there and discuss what it was that we just talked about, like the corruption, the crony capitalism”

A true leader is very rare. The rest of the candidates know when to follow, and they follow Governor Palin very well.

With Palin in the White House, many RINOs and conservatives will become the best they can be because they will have Palin’s leadership to guide them.

He said he took 5,000. Is there anyway to check that. I read somewhere else it was more like 30,000; and I read somewhere else that the said the Executive Order the very same day that they gave him some big campaign donation. I’ll bet there is hundreds of thousands donated to him in hidden ways if anyone can figure it out.

[calcowgirl]

VAN SUSTEREN: All right. Now, there's a CNN poll out. You have not announced your candidacy. You've given us no hint either way. And we keep all pounding on you and trying to pry it out of you with all sorts of sneaky questions. But the fact is that having not announced your candidacy, you're in third place, which is quite a remarkable place, considering that others have announced and are obviously not in third place.

So where do you stand tonight? Are you more interested or less interested, more engaged in this, tempted or just finished with it, or what is it?

PALIN: Still very engaged internally with my family in discussions about whether we should do this or not, Greta. But in the meantime, I'm getting kind of a kick out of this, and I have to be honest with you, getting a kick out of getting out there, giving a speech, making some statements about things that must be discussed, and then the very next day watching some of the candidates get out there and discuss what it was that we just talked about, like the corruption, the crony capitalism, the waste, the fraud, some of the things that are going on right now.

It's, like, Come on, candidates! It's about time you started talking about that. And if that perhaps is my role right now, presently, is to get people talking about the issues that the American people deserve to hear discussed and then solutions can -- can result from the discussion about some of these issues that we talk about, I'm going to keep doing that.

Sounds like she's not running.
