I think she may just run independent and wait until the last possible minute to announce it. No point in giving the MSM any added time to dissemble the facts. I think such a ploy will truly ignite the conservatives b/c the GOP field is so worthless. And the msm thinks the tea party is fading fast too.
So when is the last possible minute for 2012 election cycle?
The last possible chance to enter has past for several early primary states. They can enter, but they can’t win, because the delegates for the early states cannot vote for entries who are not on the ballot. The deadline to get on the ballot has past for Iowa, New Hampshire and South Carolina. Virginia’s deadline comes up in 3 days.
There is no way that a late candidate can simply jump in at any later date and win. The campaign had to be officially organized and entered by now, even for independents and late comers.
