Sarah Palin stirs the pot but doesn’t announce (Obama 2012 & Palin 2016 in Works?)

Sarah Palin stirs the pot but doesn’t announce By Jennifer Rubin Sarah Palin didn’t announce her candidacy for president Saturday at a Tea Party gathering in Iowa. But she did complicate matters for front-runner Texas Gov. Rick Perry, suggesting an actual strategy may be at work: If Perry stumbles, she might get into the race. But don’t bet on it.

Mitt Romney and Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-Minn.) might want to sent Palin some flowers. She did an enormous favor for them in making the argument against “crony capitalism,” one of the most potent arguments against Perry. As this report observed:

“We’re celebrating red, white and blue America!” she began her speech, amid the sounds of cheering and what sounded suspiciously like a vuvuzela. After painting a dire picture of the American economy as it stands today, she railed against President Obama: “Is this what you call winning the future? I call it

Been saying that for the past 3 weeks! Alas, 'some' think it's being a liberal troll.

I have talked to a few Perry supporters genially about the coming storm known as vetting. Reasonable people know what's coming. They saw Palin get "the treatment".

I can't imagine what Bannon was talking about but I remember him saying it.

He said this:

I’ve got something that I’m working on that I think is going to be even more controversial than this film,” he said. “If everything goes according to plan, I intend to drop this exactly 30 days before the Iowa caucus. It’s definitely timed for 2012.” He pauses, before adding, “There are forces brewing right beneath the surface, that I try to show in these films, that are going to have a tectonic plate shift in the culture of American politics. I think the paradigm is shifting, and it’s going to shift dramatically.”

Then not long after, Breitbart said he has a major story he'll be revealing too. My guesses:

1. Major scandal about Romney, supporting the crony capitalism theme.

2. Third Party formation.

3. Something major about Obama.

I can’t even speculate on what it is. It could be so many things.
