Half-Gov Youbetcha

Poor Sarah. She's feeling neglected.



WASHINGTON -- Sarah Palin's support among Republicans has shrunk and there's no evidence she's close to saying whether she will run for president in 2012.

But it's clear she wants to be part of the conversation.

After seemingly staying on the sidelines this spring, the GOP's 2008 vice presidential nominee is back with public appearances, fiery criticism of President Barack Obama and a strong defense of Donald Trump, the reality TV show host who has raised questions about the president's background without offering any proof of his assertions.

"What the heck is wrong with asking the president of the United States to disclose what his college thesis was, what some of the Harvard Law Review papers were that he wrote?" Palin said last week. She was adding her voice to a Trump-led chorus of critics who question how much the country knows about its president.

You know, I don't care what the politariat says: She's running. Bank on it. Her ego will allow for nothing less.

1. Well, you're certainly correct about her ego.

2. Don't think she'll go for it?

You may be right, but I feel there's even a higher chance of Sister Sarah taking the plunge than Donny Boy Trump, whom, after all, is nothing but ego! :-)

3. If she decides yes, it'll be because of her ego and those who feed it.

They'll all tell her - pay no attention to those poll numbers behind the curtain! You can beat Obama!" It wouldn't surprise me. But even conservatives I know all point to "she quit" as the reason you hear the sound of screeching brakes all around them. And those noises are pretty loud.
