I Believe Sarah Palin Is Running

Former Governor Sarah Palin hit the ball out of the park on Greta Van Susterin’s show. And Greta wasn’t exactly throwing softballs.

Sarahcuda said she definitely does have a “fire in her belly” about the direction of the United States. She declared that the US needs to return to traditional American values and to do that, Barack Obama needs to be booted out. She made only one minor hit on a Republican, Newt Gingrich, reminding Greta that he had told Sarah Palin to “slow down” and choose her words wisely, then Gingrich himself shoved both feet in his mouth. But the Sarahcuda followed that up with an “everyone makes mistakes” line.

Sarahcuda spent some time telling Greta what the media should be doing with the candidates and prospective candidates. Absolutely examine their records. Absolutely compare what they are saying with their records and what they said before. Absolutely examine the candidates’ agendas. And don’t go easy — on any candidate. Treat all candidates the same, unlike in 2008 when the press refused to examine Obama’s radical upbringing, Obama’s radical relationships, Obama’s record. (In fact, JournoList had their own agenda: if someone went after Obama for his relationship with the unrepentant terrorist William Ayers or the racist America-hating “reverend” Wright, the JournoListers should target any ol’ big-name Conservative person and accuse that person of being a racist.)

And the piddly junk, like going after the children, should be out of bounds.

The original Mama Grizzly said she is taking her family into consideration but I believe that will end up resolving itself. Sarah’s running. Let me explain my reasoning.

Track Palin really isn’t a lamestream media target and will continue to not be a lamestream media target. There’s nothing tittilating.

I don’t believe Trig Palin will have any emotional trauma whatsoever.

Bristol Palin survived the lamestream media storm in the 2008 cycle, on into 2009 and went on to do the Dancing With The Stars reality show. She has gone with her mother to international locations for charitable causes and has been in the background, fully supporting Sarahcuda with research, fixing the hair, etc. And now, Bristol has her own reality show contract dealing with her Charity. If Bristol wanted out of the tabloids, this isn’t the way to do it, so I don’t believe lamestream media blasting of Bristol will have any final impact on Sarah’s decision to run.

Of the children, that leaves Willow and Piper, both of whom have already cut their teeth with the media coverage and both of whom have shown a certain maturity level beyond their years. Piper was even a poster girl for an Alaska Pro-Life display.

That leaves husband Todd, who would feel cooped up in DC and would feel a fatherly and husbandly protective desire. But he has done a lot of work helping Sarah be on air and out in front in the media and in all her public presentations, so I doubt that’ll be that major a hurdle once all is said and done.

So yes, due to Sarah Palin’s fire in her belly for the good of the US, for the return of the US to traditional American values (which means voting Obama out of office and putting a strong Conservative in office), I believe Sarah’s going to run. And she can most afford to wait to announce of all the prospective candidates.

I’ve heard a rumor that there’s a July 4 deadline for lawsuits in Alaska, which she may wish to out-wait. And, yes, money would likely be an issue regarding that point because I believe she’d have to stop many of her own personal income-generating activities and would no longer have the necessary income to easily cover any more frivolous lawsuits. But that’s just my unlearned thinking on it.
