Sarah Palin Says She Will Not Seek the Presidency



Sarah Palin told a radio talk show host on Wednesday that she would not seek the presidency in 2012, but said that she would still be involved in trying to oust President Obama from the White House.



“Not being a candidate, you are unshackled and able to be even more active,” she said on the Mark Levin show. “I look forward to using all the tools at my disposal to get the right people in there who have a servant’s heart.”

As crazy as the U.S. is (Hank Williams Jr), it's still not crazy enough to elect Sarah Palin President. She would lose a match-up with Barack Obama by something like 70% to 30%. It would be an Obama super-landslide.

ha imagine that, if she ran, then dolly parton could run, and madonna, and miss daisy may, and little lulu


and any one of them would win over her. I feel sorry for her in many ways, john mcCain dragged her out of

alaska, not because of any thought about her, but just to push her in front of hillary, to even the odds

for the feminine candidate. She did not fit, and still doesn't.

Any debate between her and hillary would have been a joke, hillary was so far ahead of her in knowledge about

not only politics, but foreign affairs, palin wouldn't have had a chance, at least

now, perhaps she realizes that.

I wouldn't feel too sorry for Ms. Plain. She turned a minor intellect and a pretty face into a money making machine. In that she very much resembles the Kardashian sisters, almost any of whom would be equally fit to serve as US president.

Palin said one of the reasons why she quit was because she wants to spend more time with her family. Well, at least now she will have more time to fix up its dysfunctional parts. In truth, I'm kinda disappointed in a way because I was hoping for a Palin-Malkin or Palin-Coulter ticket for the GOP next year.

That is for sure. The Republican roster looks more like the cast of a bad sit com. Most have hoof in mouth disease.

No current Republican candidate has proven themselves to be a fighter. Most seem to be willing to "reach across" and work with the immoral, anti-American left. Appeasement doesn't work. The great Ronald Regan had a much better policy: We win, you lose.

Ronny Raygun played second fiddle to a chimp because the chimp was a better actor and probably would have made a better Prez.

It's for the best.

The woman is viewed as a complete retard by a majority of voters. That can't be good for republicans.

Maybe this might give Ron Paul a shot. He's the only one on that side of things that isn't seriously deranged.

Ron Paul's ideas, while they strike a cord with ideological sympathies of many Americans, are not practical in the modern world. He wants to revert to an isolationationist world and dismantle much of the government, even though many of the institutions he wants disband were created because individuals and companies cannot be trusted to govern themselves when any conflict of interest arises, which is what he advocates. Benjamin Franklin Laissez Faire economics are almost as big a failure as Marxist-Lenin policies were.

you've got that right, I like him, has a bit of common sense in his head, and some thoughts for the
good of the country.
