    Sarah Palin still hasn't ruled out running.

    She's too busy with her bus tour, promoting her brand of nationalism.

    She's giving herself until September as a deadline. Maybe she's just considering converting her One Nation publicity into her presidential run.

    I predict she'll latch on as a VP candidate down the road. Let the other candidates spend the time and money campaigning and debating and what have you, then just jump in last minute

    Any speculation on whom?

    I understand there's been some ill will towards Palin from the Bachmann camp.

    Who does Palin favour? Who has favour towards Palin?

    fflowley Don't just do something, stand there!

    Pawlenty just called it quits.
     
  7. I actually watched the debate, was bored in a hotel room. Was left very uninspired. All made some good points but all seem to me to be incomplete candidates for one reason or another. The Republican party would be better served if more followed Pawlenty and dropped out. With so many candidates it is like a circus sideshow.
