I agree, I don’t think Palin’s going to run either. I think she likes her current job and she hasn’t even set up an exploratory committee: http://blogs.wsj.com/washwire/2011/04/20/palin-exploratory-committee-isnt-on-radar-yet/
This early on I just look for whoever “looks Presidential,” that is someone who’s basically attractive, healthy-looking, charismatic and generally appealing. I don’t have any illusions that the typical voter really cares about issues that much; they just want to vote for someone who looks confident and speaks smoothly.
That’s why I think the nominee be Pawlenty or Huntsman or someone bland-seeming like him: not too fiery, no strong negatives, positive, likeable guy all around. The GOP doesn’t want to risk anything with an strong idealogical candidate. Romney has always had a “fakeness” to his personality (like John Edwards) that made me think people don’t really like him, though he is attractive and healthy-looking.
For me, I’m just watching for someone I don’t want to just punch in the face. So far, I have just wanted to give Sarah a light slap once or twice.
Sarah will be running. She recently hired some expensive, top-notch staffers and policy advisors. She also just revamped up her SarahPac website so that it is state-of-the-art now.
You don’t invest that kind of money to sit at home. Why would a mom in Wasilla need foreign and economic advisors plus a seasoned Chief of Staff who has run POTUS campaigns before? (as techno asked me)
Sarah is unconventional so she’ll probably forego exploratory committees. She does things different from the other wannabes.

I disagree with you and your post #227......Our PROBLEM outside of the Communist Democratic party IS the GOP.....NO MORE WEAK A** CANDIDATES.....Palin fights and it is now or never.....Once your pushed up against the wall so many times, you either fight or lose yourself (and your country).....
I'm hanging on to what Sarah said,"I think it is too early for anyone." I'll be just sick if she doesn't run. I wish the candidates would all realize what dire straits our country is in and that our future depends on defeating the Marxist in the WH.
This is a national security and national survival issue we're talking about here, not some petty political difference between old school, (pre-Johnson), democrats and republicans.
We need to all rally around Sarah early, top to bottom, and that includes the so-called elites in the party and FOX. The internet and talk radio are ours because we expose The Truth and shall continue to do so. It's the Republican Party, the elites, FOX and yes, you too Mr. Trump, that need to support Sarah early if we are going to defeat the billion dollar communist.
