Poll: Palin Running Now?
Former GOP Vice Presidential candidate Sarah Palin is hinting she might get into the presidential race. John McCain's running mate told the Fox Business Network she's still unsure about 20-12. Palin said, "You know it's not too late for people to jump and who knows what will happen in the future."
Palin announced in October she would not seek the Republican nomination, citing how a national campaign would effect her family.
Tonight in the Daily Pulse we're wondering: Do you expect Sarah Pain to change her mind, and enter the GOP Presidential race? Yes or no? Why or why not?

no thanks
If Romney gets nominated, then we in effect have a one party political system.
Then, I would welcome a third party run by her.
If Gov. Palin enters the race, it will elevate her to Donald Trump status.
It’s certainly not too late for Hillary or Jimmah Cahtah (only one term) to jump into the race for Prez either. I think Her Thighness would make a bang up (sorry for the imagery) candidate!
“Do you expect Sarah Pain to change her mind, and enter the GOP Presidential race?”
Before everyone gets their panties in a bunch, be aware that the question is NOT “do you want her to run”.
And in answer to the question asked, I reply - No.
A lot more people than you know, don’t find your statement nearly as sarcastic as you think it is.
Just saying.
If it wasn’t the thing to do in October, it probably still isn’t the thing to do. She made a good decision.
Some in the establishment class are now hawking Jeb Bush.....ughhhh.
If they can send out Jeb, then others can open the idea of Sarah.
I’m finding it laughable that those dismissing Sarah are the ones who have (or will) be asking for her endorsements or support from her base. If Sarah doesn’t play ball, and doesn’t do the right things which makes the critics happy, then it’s NO SOUP FOR YOU.
It’s like slapping the wife then saying “Oh honey, I’m sorry, please forgive me. I won’t do it again.”
Next time, just put on the “wife beater” t-shirt.
Good for her! Even if she doesn’t run (and I don’t think she will) she is putting fear into the other candidates and the RNC and that can only be a good thing.
I don’t care to link to Slate but in this case it shows quite clearly how well an unannounced SP was doing...
It’s still hers for the taking, IMHO.
Oooohhh! You have a Palinoia Ping list!!

Sarahnoia?

There is no groundswell calling for Trump to enter. No one considers him an ideologically pure alternative to the likely nominee.
Other than that, you could be right I guess.
Exactly right. I don’t think she will run, but it’s a sharp move to have at least a tiny, tiny crack of the door open, for either herself, or more likely, a similar constitutional conservative compatriot she can help champion, in order to derail Romney. Especially since this is coming on the heels today of the ‘establishment’ guys floating the notion of Jeb Bush around, apparently panicked and finally acknowledging that their boy Romney just isn’t selling.
