…Which is why she’s not running. At least, I don’t think so. She may very well toss her hat into the ring, but she’ll fundraise like crazy, decide that it’s not worth it with a series of tweets and a press conference blaming the “Lamestream media” and then try to play kingmaker.
Sorry to break it to you, but: She’s buying a house in Scottsdale. Speculation about her plans is rampant, but does not include Alaska.
There are bears in Arizona, too, right?
Palin would kill the money making brand if she ran. She would get creamed and lose a lot of her draw. Teasing about it energizes her followers, both of them. It still allows her to speak in front of right wing groups for big bucks. But actually running would subject her to well deserved ridicule. We can treat her like a spoiled clown when she is galvanizing a few political nuts but having her as president it too crazy to imagine.
I disagree. She can run some kind of sham campaign during the primaries, and the do a song and dance about “I stood up to make sure the voice of Real America is heard”. Then she goes back to Fox.
She would have a lot more problem if she actually wins the nomination and has to go up against Obama, though.
What’s the over/under on some sort of false flag operation during the bus tour?
What exactly are you thinking of? Some kind of “groundswell of grassroots support” that “convinces” her to run? Or something else?
Or some staged “meenie librul dirty trick”.
It’s mainly to fuck with Romney. Why else would she and her bus be in New Hampshire the same day he formally announces there?
I really hope somebody follows that bus. I’d bet it’s dropping the off at the entrance of a comfortable corporate jet, and picking them up at the next airport or hotel.
I’d do it, but I don’t have the financial resources. But to prove that I’m serious, I’m going to go stand in the feminine hygiene aisle and stare at the shelves for the next month. Same thing; just less travel.

Learn from Palin as she describes the ride of Paul Revere.
It’s clear now that the French gave us the Statue of Liberty to warn us that the British were going to take away our guns a hundred years before. It’s a lucky thing they didn’t ring the bell at his house first, or he wouldn’t have been able to fire all those warning shots.
Thank you Sarah!
– not intended as a factual statement –
Did she get to the part where Reagan did a Neo thing and stopped the bullets that were fired at Revere?

Because even people who can’t view the video need to here this.
I imagine this is a brilliant joke, but I can only parse it as “watching douches”. Please explain.
If Palin was a real Patriot, she’d be riding around America on a horse!
Oh no, different place. That’s when the British were charging up San Juan Hill in San Diego, on All Saints Day.
In a related story, Tina Fey says she won’t be returning to SNL to impersonate Palin.
“How the hell am I supposed to parody that?”
IOW “I can see every Middlesex village and farm from Old North Church!”
