Red State Says: “Palin Is Not Going To Run” – But – Cited Palin Interview Actually Indicates September Or October Decision – With Video

August 14th, 2011 (13) Posted By Pat Dollard.

Excerpted from Red State:

by Dan Spencer

“It’s fair to them to give them an answer here, in short order, so that they can jump on board with someone else.” – Sarah Palin August 13, 2011

With those words, former Gov. Sarah Palin made it clear to me that she will not run for president in 2012.

You don’t tell your supporters “they can jump on board with someone else” if you are going to run. It’s as simple as that. One could, and no doubt many will, say Palin was just inarticulate. I don’t buy that.

Read the whole thing at Red State

However, Palin herself says in the interview Dan cites:

David Brody: “Is that short order by the end of September? October?

Sarah Palin: “I think that that is a fair timeline for people, because Fall time, they can start getting engaged with different campaigns, but still thinking about it, and really, really desiring to be a participant in the positive change that needs to happen in this country. Economy getting back on the right track. Jobs created for Americans, I want to be a part of that whether it be as a candidate, or as a supporter of the right candidate. I’m still in that decision making phase.”

So I says: “We’ll see.”

    Red State or Rino State is engaging in wishful thinking. With “conservatives” like these who needs enemies?

      How did I know you would be the one to reply?  LOL!
      Sorry if I am tired of all the coy responses and media hype.  In theory I should be able to make that comment w/out being told to chill.  I am tired of the battle of the blog commentaries whether she is or isn’t, and if she can win or not.  Her fans are down right nasty when someone doesn’t see her as “The One” Our Savior, just as bad as the barry people.  Her supporters are fanatical to the point of being  bad as the left protesters.  It is her fans (you of course excluded) that just turn me off, Palin herself isn’t so bad, but her supporters…Jeez.  I hate the Mama Grizzly and Cuda crap, so high school or childish, or immature, or something, not sure what. Just know I can’t stand it and I don’t think it helps her. Find some other more adult catch phrases.Either announce or go away until she decides. It’s getting boring.  With all that said, should she decide to run, win the primary she will get my vote.  That make you happy?  Who says I am a dude?

      Thanks for excluding me from some of the fanatical Palinistas. I agree some of them just go way over the top. Cuda and Mama Grizzly are just our nicknames for her (she was called the Barracuda in high school and she does have a Mama Grizzly movement of pink elephants).

      I agree the waiting is hard but I trust her instincts. Giuliani and Christie are also waiting. Ryan may be too. Perry just jumped in. This reminds me of how she was announced as McCain’s VP – stealth (no one knew in advance) and last minute. Reagan and Clinton got in very late in their races and won. There may be a method to her thinking. She might trying to follow Reagan’s strategy.

      Even if you’re not a dude, it’s common to call males or females “dude”. I get people saying “Dude” to me all the time, including Pat.

      I think she’ll run or else she may as well drop out of politics. So I’m with you on that!

    Shit or get off the pot woman.  I am so tired of hearing she is going to run, she isn’t going to run.  She has had enough experience to know how it will affect family.

    That reporter was way too much into her personal space.

      Dude – she said she will let us know in September. Chill. No need for her to jump in now when the primaries are months away. She saves lots of money and gets to size up her competition in the meantime.

      If she wasn’t running, she would already have said so.
