Dressed in black jeans, leather jacket and crash helmet, the 2008 Republican vice presidential candidate joined tens of thousands of bikers in a rally honouring military veterans.
"It is certainly seen by those in the media as a godsend, as it will give a so far dismal Republican primary season a shot of excitement.
"However, the Republican establishment cannot be happy. They probably view her candidacy as a spoiler, as she has the potential to split their party's vote and ensure a Democratic win."
Mrs Palin is a paid contributor to Fox News and has her own reality TV show. She has written a best-selling book and draws large crowds when she appears at book stores, rallies and other events.
But establishment figures in the Republican Party believe Mrs Palin has been involved in too many political rows and soap-opera dramas to win the nomination.
Alongside Mr Romney, former Minnesota governor Tim Pawlenty, former speaker of the House Newt Gingrich and pizza entrepreneur Herman Cain lead the race.
Mrs Palin joined the riders in the Pentagon parking lot before heading to the rally on the Mall in downtown Washington.
"Nice to meet you," Mrs Palin told one fellow rider. "Thanks for doing what you're doing for the veterans."
"How do you wear all this leather and stay cool?" she asked another.
Mrs Palin's 'One Nation' road trip is the latest and biggest hint that the former governor of Alaska wants a shot at the Republican nomination to run against Barack Obama.
Scott Conroy, author of Sarah From Alaska, said: "Sarah Palin is someone who single-handedly turned the 2008 campaign on its head. She can draw a crowd of tens of thousands of people whenever and wherever she wants."

Man! they continue to cast her every action in the worst possible light. Many will no fall for this tripe again..
Sarah has what we are looking for in a candidate.
God has blessed her and blessed us by bring her forth. Thank you LORD!
Awful comments!
Who’s the hot mama she’s riding behind?
It appears the libs sure are afraid of her.
I was just thinking the other day, to me, she is the female version of George Washington.
Born February 11, 1964 in Sandpoint, ID (Meets the Jus Soli Requirement)
Parents were
Charles R Heath, born in ID
Sarah Sheeran, born in WI
Both parents were US Citizens at the time of her birth (Meets the Jus Sanguinis Requirement)
Sarah Palin is a NATURAL BORN CITIZEN unlike Barry Soetoro aka Barack Hussein Obama.

republican losers can’t work thru Sarah. She is on to them
The Republican and the Democrat establishment are wetting their pants over Palin. If she became president, their hands would no longer be on the levers of power and more importantly they would not have streams of government money flowing into theirs and their supporters pockets.
They will do everything possible to eliminate this woman. Watch out Sarah.
Establishment upset? Good! Reagan ‘upset’ them too, but this time Reagan is Sarahcuda. Remember what she did to the corrupt GOP in Alaska? No holes barred boys. Time’s up. Mamma’s home!!!
If only this poor sap knew how stupid that makes him sound..."The republican establishment" can no longer elect a dogcatcher.
Why didn’t Obozo ride his hog in Rolling Thunder?
1. His “hog” was busy working on her vegetable garden.
2. Obozo could barely ride a girl’s bike on Martha’s Vineyard last year.
Can someone post a picture of Sarah on a motorcycle next to Obozo on his girl’s bike with the dopey helmet he was wearing.
hehheh, I think the phrase is "no holds barred," like in a free for all wrestling match.
Awesome!
Good post!
BTTT! Exactly and we take our party back!
Comments at the link are laughable!
Thank God foreigners don’t have a say in our elections.
Bingo!
Europeans are such insufferable snobs.
