Palin says 2012 presidential bid a possibility

Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin says she would consider a run for president in 2012 if the situation was right for her family and the nation.
In an interview recorded Saturday and broadcast on "FOX News Sunday," Palin said she would run "if I believed that that is the right thing to do for our country and for the Palin family."
"I think that it would be absurd to not consider what it is that I can potentially do to help our country," Palin said, later adding: "I won't close the door that perhaps could be open for me in the future." read more
-----------------------

What are your thoughts about a possible Palin 2012 run?

Palin is not the conservative/right/republican answer of this country.

Not now, not in 2012.

It concerns me that conservative/right/republican's are excited over her. If this is the best there is on the conservative/right/republican side then they are in trouble.

The problem I see with Palin is that what she says is all sound bytes. I don't see anything new or refreshing out of her. Her "ideas" are recycled and when she delivers them, they are said in a way that is all fluff and no substance. She is a media whore. All she is doing is grandstanding and sounding like a sore loser.


The conservative/right/republican's are all tired of hearing Obama and the democrats blame Bush over and over and over and all Palin can do is blame Obama and the democrats over and over and over.

Palin gives female politicians a bad name. The Republicans should nip this one in the bud, and quickly.

Everybody laughs about the facelifts, collagen injections and Botox shots that make politicians look like zombies who’ve just escaped the cemetery.

Nancy Pelosi’s $23 million Botox bill – you’re paying it

this is what cracks me up with you two - Daisy Dog & Buba - You two can't even come close to carrying on an intelligent conversation about the topic PALIN. Instead of discussing Palin you deflect by bringing up everything but Palin.

Botox? Peter Pan?

Congrats on another thread hijack guys. You must be proud.

Please GL how can I take your thread as serious?
You call her a media whore. How can I respond to such a statement?
As far as I am concerned she has my values and concerns for our nation. Plain and simple. If you like the current liberal agenda of this country than so be it.
Most folks are all ready fed up with the "change" ==== Massachusetts spoke out did they not with an unknown candidate and he won old Teddy's seat. I am sure Pailin can do a much better job.

what are those values and concerns?

what makes her better than any other republicans out there?

what is it that currently makes her the one for you?

What specifically has she said or done that makes her the best choice to lead or save the conservative/republican/right?

I mean really, if all we are going off of is that she could beat Obama, well, there could be a few others out there right now that could also beat him.

We're not discussing Nancy Pelosi. We're discussing Sarah Palin.

Sarah Palin has demonstrated time and again that she doesn't understand the most basic domestic issues, let alone foreign issues. She can't finish a job (see: Alaska governorship). What's OK for her is not OK for others (Obama's use of the teleprompter vs, her scribbling notes on her hand). She represents one small fringe of the Republican Party, a fringe that is radically out of touch with the everyday Americans who claim to be Republicans.

The best way for Mrs. Palin to help her party and her country is to live a quiet life in Alaska.

DD & Buba are not capable of having a conversation about their hero. Talking to them is a lot like watching Fox News. Fox News outright lies and misrepresents the news in order to favor their agenda. These two are the the same.

the number one rating can be attributed to the fact they keep spewing biased attacks disguised as news. people like that stuff and the average person is not smart, or interested, enough to see through it.

its entertainment; remember Palin's book signing? How about the crowds they showed as attending in their news clips? Too bad it was proven to be a crowd from ANOTHER event....the no spin zone.....my ass.

for the record, and I can't speak for the others, but I am not a lefty.

But I am one that does his homework and I know enough that Palin is not the savior that you believe her to be.

It bothers me that she is a quitter. It bothers me that she tries so hard to be witty and funny. If I want fun and wit I will tune into Leno or Letterman.

It bothers me that if she is taken off script she can't talk intelligently (a problem that the current President has as well)

It bothers me that so many have put their faith into her. The last time I saw this happen we ended up with Obama.

Try to educate me? With sound clips and youtube videos? That is education? c'mon
