Unless she is running, she needs to hold her fire until she sees the white hispanics of Jeb’s eyes.

Hmmm.
She’s got a life - a full and rich life. She’s doing fine and maybe sometimes she’ll decide to hold office again. I never hear about her husband, Todd, anymore. I hope their relationship is strong. All that darkness from the left was hard to handle in the family.
As I recall, when Ronald Reagan announced his candidacy, it was just weeks before the Republican Convention. By not announcing early, he saved big on his election war chest and nobody had time to get tired of hearing his campaigning.
Many of the candidates currently named are already wearing out they exposure to the public.
I’d bet that Mrs. Palin is doing the Ronald Reagan tactic.
She’s a media personality now, and those were good choices for her. She’ll fade away when the next generation grows up, they won’t understand the context of her popularity with conservatives.
She had fun. She was fun. But now it’s done. There are moose to hunt, her husband’s salmon boat to outfit. Kids’ hockey games to attend. In short, she’s a real person, not a politician or media pundit, and her real life has called her back home.
She is holding her fire. She knows that most folks have an attention span of about twelve minutes.
