It is no big surprise that Sarah Palin isn't running. The polling showed that something like 70% of Republicans did not want her to run. That tells the story right there. She had little support from the party to run. She might regain the momentum and do something in the future though. If the lends a hand to the nominee, she could get a nice appointment out of it of some sort.

I knew Palin wasn't going run. She's too much of an airhead you betcha dingbat. Her tea party is flaming out and it is highly likely that many in the GOP pleaded with her not to join the race and further embarrass the party. She won't even be on the ticket as VP. Were hell to freeze over and a Republican prevailed in 2012, she wouldn't even be offered a cabinet position.

Her sole purpose is to do what she can to pump up her bottom line by postering as if her ideas are good for the country. Her money-making scheme was in the BUILD-UP as a potential candidate. Quite telling that there are actually clueless desperados out there who believed that she was a serious candidate to run this country. Scary stuff.

Her star is falling, especially after the revelations about her drug use and submitting herself sexually to a black man (sure not the only one). She's busted. Divorce to follow. Shame on all of you Pubs who believed in this female Strom Thurmond from podunk.

Everyone in Alaska is sick of hearing about her.
So now you speak for everyone in Alaska, eh? Just another typical anti-American liberal freak, as usual.

Only 70%? I placed her disapproval by establishment neo-conservative Republicans much higher. After all, she has taken down more Republicans and put them out of politics than Democrats. The GOP had a strong dislike for Sarah Palin before she even ran for Governor in 2006. Which is one of the reasons why she was so popular among Alaskans.

She made it very clear when she resigned in July 2009 that she would not be seeking another public office. Why this announcement comes as a surprise is beyond me.

She will not advocate for any establishment Republican, which includes Romney and Perry. Both of them are well known RINOs. She may give her support to Herman Cain, but I think she will wait until just before the State Primaries before revealing who she will support.

I guess the left will have to aim their hate elsewhere.

It's interesting that you think Herman Cain is not part of the GOP...lol.
