She was going 90 miles and hour towards running in the primary then hit the brakes. Why I don’t know what it is but there is something there. Sorry gang, she will not be running.
It’s possible she didn’t think she could break though in the wake of the McGinniss release, Bristol was freaking out after her encounter in the bar, and her gut said no to how things looked then.
The interview with Amy Cramer of the Tea Party Express is very telling. She said she thinks Palin will get i n and only Cain, DeMint and Palin matter for endorsements—yet none of them has endorsed.
I have no knowledge, but I study people for a living.
I think being Mr. Sarah Palin was turning into a much tougher gig than it seemed in the beginning. I think the McGinnis trash caused a crisis (after things had been building up for a while) which did not have a short-term resolution.
Maybe, like a lot of things, it doesn't seem like such a big deal now.
I absolutely agree that the launch was on schedule for September, and it was stopped at the last minute.

I don't think it is that hard to figure out if you look at events at that time...
The McGinnis book had just come out. Todd did not dispute the stories in the book but did declare that the author was a liar - very political "what is, is" kind of statement.
The palins threatened to sue but did nothing to follow through on the threat, even though the publisher called their bluff.
If they had sued then everything in the book would have been open to public dissection in court....everything.
maybe Glen Rice has photos
