I'm not sure if she even still owns it. I don't think she ever sold the Alaska home. She was probably testing the waters in AZ to see if she could get support from the GOP party here. From what I've heard, the answer is a resounding NO.

Step 1: Hint that you might run for office.
Step 2: Enjoy the increased number of paid speaking engagements and book sales created from the buzz.
Step 3: Don't actually run for office.

There's a FOIA filed with Homeland Security asking for documents regarding their investigation with fired/resigned Secret Service agent David Chaney. Chaney was assigned and sent to Alaska to protect Palin during the 2008 campaign.
While in Alaska, Todd Palin (allegedly) acting as a pimp, connected Chaney with his "masseuse" for sexual purposes.
Portions of the Homeland Security interview of Chaney, regarding his dealings with prostitutes and Todd Palin, is being sent this week to the lawyer who filed the FOIA. You betcha!!
Yeah, you can hardly make this stuff up...but it's really happening!

Run and use that to promote and sell books, DVDs, raise money, get bigger speaker fees, and just rip people off. Worked so well for Newt, that now Cain, Palin, West, dead beat dad, are using the successful model.

Anything to keep in the spotlight. But if history teaches us anything it shows us that this ploy is nothing more than an effort to boost her low ratings on Fox. It is all about the money with Palin. In a few weeks she will have some harebrained excuse on why she is not running.

23. Can we get this skank's face OFF the front page of DU?
Wed Jul 10, 2013, 02:59 PM

This biotch is offensive to look at. Everytime I see her "beauty pageant smile", I want to vomit. Probably the single dumbest gop goon you can round up, and yet we keep getting her puss posted on the page to suffer through.

Suggestion: Go ahead and write stories about this horse's ass all you want, but can you save the pictures of this ignorant tea bagger for those that are at all interested in reading anything about her?

I'm trying to forget the nightmare. YOU keep sticking it in my face. The cartoons are cute; but save them for those that are wanting to even read about the dim-witted clown.

She's on Faux, she's on Facebook, she's on Twitter.
I don't want a Senator that isn't rogue enough to be so attention-starved as her.

Besides, she's not all that.

But, I don't think that she will do that because she is afraid of having a picture of her captioned as "Mooselini, in a bikini."



I'm not on Twitter or Facebook, so I miss most of her hysterical cackling.

She was the State commander of the Alaskan Army and Air National Guard.

She quit before her term was up.

From my military days, that strikes me as DESERTING YOUR POST.

She is just ginning up agita and anxiety on the RIGHT. By doing so - she makes sure she is relevant and keeps getting the do-re-mi.
