In Fox Business Network interview, ex-Alaska Guv plays coy on whether she's still mulling a presidential bid.

Palin: "It's not too late for folks to jump in. Who knows what will happen in the future."

I’m really not interested in Palin for President if she decides to throw in her hat again....and I don’t think she would do so. And I don’t especially like the idea she’s teasing about this to those who might see her remarks as indicating she would. It’s just another diversion to shake the primaries and there’s enough rocking that boat without adding Palin to the mix.

We’re beginning to look like fruitcakes with the Ron Paul Bots and the nonsense going on there....I wonder sometimes if we can be even taken seriously with all the theatrics and such....not just played by the media and hollywood...but by our own. It’s getting pretty disgusting.

Will we ever get behind one cnadidate and go for the gold! Sheesh! For me I’m staying with Newt....I’m not going to play in the sandbox some are attempting to make of this primary. He’s the most stable of all and that just settles it for me.

WIth all this talk of Oromney getting the nomination, and even Newt appears to be having trouble

All I can say is GO SARAH, GO!!

Down the Corrupt System of Democrats and Whigs, we need a second party, and I am sure Sarah will hit it out of the ball park tonight like she always does!

I’d rather have her running for POTUS over these Milquetoast Moderate Pubbies any day!

Do you like candidates who have thrown crooked politicians in jail even if they were members of their own party? Do you think the country needs a lot of that right now?

Count me in too. Tough slogging through 13 debates...slammed by opponents and the press, Newt with his past accomplishments in government has earned it.

All the “real” conservatives have taken a beating in this campaign cluster-fu ... oops, watch the language ... demolition derby. Bachmann and Santorum are gasping for air, Herman stepped away and nobody wants to know anything about Huntsman.

That leaves Newt (ick), Romney (yawn) and Paul (yikes!). All of them are Washington insiders, to varying degrees, so the best we could hope for would be another “reach across the aisle” jerk-off. Again. That means our downward spiral would continue, albeit at a slightly slower pace.

I suspect Sarah was waiting to see how the race would shake out. If none of the “big change” types made any headway, then jump in and fix it. Sounds just like her, doncha think?

And if Sarah jumping in late offends your delicate sense of what’s “right” in a presidential candidate, then go lick the hand that sends you your gummint checks. A lot of us are ready to burn the ENTIRE BLEEPING PLACE DOWN and start over, so unconventional warfare should be the least of your worries. Do you wanna save the nation or bitch about guerrilla campaign tactics?

That being said ... what if Sarah jumps in as a “write-in” candidate? Everybody can spell “Palin” and the effect on both the Republicans and the press would be staggering. Or if she meets a few ballot deadlines and wins a few primaries, she could go to the convention with a light load of delegates, but a TON of others would long for the chance to vote for her nomination.

Seriously, folks ... look at what we’ve got left in the race. Any of you excited? Does anybody SERIOUSLY think one of these remaining clowns can save America, in the most important election of our lifetimes? Didn’t think so.

GO SARAH GO!! Do it. Time to change everything.

I doubt that she will run, but she would sure make an immediate impact!

I’ve set TIVO in case my husband plans to watch some football game that I fear is on tonight....LOL. (Monday Night Football).

I will go to the kitchen TV to watch Eric Bolling’s show.

I love Sarah Palin but I don’t like people not jumping in from the very beginning. Just rubs me the wrong way.

Especially when you are already strongly backing another candidate, right?

Given the choice of saving our republic or destuction of such by the liberals and Obama, I would hope that all americans would quiet the pettiness and do what is right. A vote not cast is a signal of surrender.

I couldn’t agree more. These people who whine because she let them down and she didn’t participate in the debates, etc. are cutting off their nose to spite their face. She is the single best chance this country has to survive as a free republic. We need to rally behind her and forget that she hurt our feelings. A lot more than our feelings are at stake. People need to grow up.

The system that we use is not what the Founders wanted. They did not want political parties or national campaigns. Unfortunately political parties did emerge and their design lasted only 4 elections. Check out the history of the electoral college.

Is the money stream dying out? The MSM ignored her once she declared she wasn’t running. It is as though she went into the witness protection program.

Trump is at best a RINO, but he is for sure a liberal....

I wasn't really serious about Trump. I was mostly thinking about how much fun it would be having him involved somehow. I'd settle for him being Palin's press secretary. That would be fun too.
