Probably my fault...but a fool is what I feel like. Maybe it's time to bury my head in the back in the sand and regroup. I am actually heartbroken. Sarah should not have let us linger so long, expressing our faith that she would come in. She was following this site, as well as her own.
Family reasons is a good fall back, but it will take a while for me to forgive myself for being so stupid!
ditto, I feel the same way. Now I have little hope.
It’s possible the Nat’l Enquirer stories have some merit. It would explain everything.
I do not blame Sarah and Todd at all for this decision. Hell, I would not run either if I were them.
But, rightly or wrongly, I think she strung millions of us along un-necessarily for too long and I think money (personal gain) may have been the underlying issue.
With what has happened to Bachman and Palin in terms of savagery by the left, it may not be possible for any conservative woman to run again for a hundred years.....
And, being honest, about right this minute, I don’t care what Sarah Palin thinks about anything.
Just because you were passionate in your support and belief in her is no reason to feel like a fool. Take heart in the fact that you can be passionate about things concerning our Republic. Most Americans could care less.
Sarah was not my first choice, but I think you are being too harsh on her.
Remember, her son Trigg has lots of challenges ahead of him. Do I think she's savvy enough to juggle everything, including his special needs? Yes, I do.
But we don't know all the ins and outs she's facing, and if her little guy truly needs her, or is facing some challenge she doesn't want the nasty MSM to mock (because, yes, they are that slimy), this is her way of sheilding him, and the rest of her family, from more sick stalkers and smears.
She can still do what she does so extremely well; proclaim that the King has no clothes and tell it like it is, while reclaiming some sense of privacy and normalcy for her family.
With all due respect - stop being a dumb*ss. She's still young, so plenty of time for her to be President. And her getting people actually fired up about politics again? Priceless.
You weren't a fool. Well, no more than the rest of us :)
