Sarah Palin on Running for Senate: 'If God Wants Me to Do It, I Will'
Newsweek ^ | 7/31/21 AT 9:40 AM EDT | BY BRENDAN COLE

Sarah Palin, the former vice presidential candidate and ex-governor of Alaska, has hinted at a return to politics.

Palin was asked if she would look at running for the U.S. Senate as she spoke at a conference on July 22 that was co-sponsored by the Harvest International Ministry religious movement, Right Wing Watch reported.

In a video shared on the ministry's Instagram page, Palin said sitting on stage that "America was dedicated to God" and she took a swipe at "a rapid shift to the left" she felt was taking place in the country.

Palin told Ahn, that it would be a "sacrifice" to leave her home in "God's country" but added: "If God wants me to do it, I will."

She went on to suggest that she would need more support from Christians than she got during her unsuccessful White House run.

I liked her. But she bailed and I get it. She was gonna get the full Trump Treatment from the enemidia, the GOP, the Dims, social media and the entire leftist base.

IMHO, she lacked the self confidence and battleship armor thick skin needed be a conservative President in the modern Socialist Republik of Amerika. Oh well. Maybe she can get another job.

“...She was the Trump of her day....”

You are exactly right. She was popular in Alaska then. I wonder how she polls now? It would be great having a gloves-off fighter like Trump in the Senate.

.....well said, I agree. As for her family, they’re a damn site higher class than Hunter Biden. And, but for her fair weather friends/supporters, she might not have quit the governorship of Alaska.

I give the DNC credit in how they stay unified, focused,and know how to put the right candidate in position for their causes. The GOP is a circus and floundering.

#19: "She was the Trump of her day...the GOP hated her too..."

Bingo. She was the "John the Baptist", paving the way for President Trump.

John replied in the words of Isaiah the prophet, “I am the voice of one calling in the wilderness, ‘Make straight the way for the Lord.’—John 1:23

I do not get to vote for Senators from Alaska, but if I did, I would vote for Sarah Palin in a heartbeat.

Free Republic has been infected by holier than thou pieces of crap.


And, if both Palin and McCain were Democrats with the same political history and Palin was running for a Senate seat, the ordinary Dems would be cheering her on.

Instead, we have “conservative” we-eat-our-owns, dishing Palin onto their political supper table.

Stupid article. She was asked if she would run and expressed the preference not to. If an Evangelical says they will do something if God leads them to it. They are not planning to do it...unless they are a fake planning to claim God insisted.

I'm relatively new here, but I seem to recall the same comments being made back when I was a lurker.

I don’t think she has been really wrong on the major issues but she doesn;t know how to stop making herself a target. But she isn’t a moron but more of a canary in the coal mine the way Congresslady Greene is. Good men don’t want to stick their necks out to save our country so good women are feeling the danger and are trying to save it. Good women, that is who aren’t necessarily ready for prime time politics.

The fact that they have to stand up when good men can’t is actually a sign of our impending failure.

Palin is “right” even though her “style” is all wrong and her baggage is bad.

We all saw the truth of the so called “women’s right movements” when Democrat liberals, both females males said all sorts of viciously nasty things about her and her children ...gross and sexually nasty at times...wanting to see her and her children raped.

For you not to even remember the abuse she endured to try and serve our nation makes you the absolute moron of the day!

I think you are a sleeper FBI lib...change agent much?

I hope you are not ready2breed!

ready2brd has an “interesting” posting history. Didn’t “reactivate” after Trump’s 2016 win - but the Steal got “it” motivated to trashtalk and pooh-pooh other freepers in 2020...

Completely accurate. She was the only fighter our side had.

The Left used Alaska’s governmental system to “lawfare” her.
