If Newt doesn't take South Carolina and Mitt goes on to take Florida, then will/can Sarah jump in? Everyone will scream no, but legally can she?

Well, the political parties have their own rules, so she'd have to file to get on the ballot in those states whose deadlines hadn't elapsed (are there any left?)

She might be setting herself up to have to run as an Independent, if Mitt takes SC and FLA. More than likely, too many filing dates would have gone by for her to capture enough delegates in the Republican nominating contest by that time.

We sure would see that "unconventional" campaign she talked about, wouldn't we?

I've even had the thought that Sarah has looked at the big picture, and the trajectory the country's headed on, and has concluded that the system is corrupted and broken beyond all redemption - and that she will step into a leadership role in the 'picking up the pieces' phase.

She may be, but the longer we wait, the harder it will be, plus there's always the risk of outright revolution. If we have to go there, so be it, but was hoping the ballot box would be the answer. We the People will never accept tyranny, soft or otherwise.

She wouldn’t e te only one thinking that way. I’m hunkering down hard for the train to hit the mountain.
