    Why run for POTUS when you can keep raking in millions and deluding yourself into thinking you're the GOP's kingmaker?

    Let's see now, how many "kingmakers" are there in the GOP now -- people you pretty much have to kiss ass/get their approval/endorsement in order to mollify "the base?"

    1) Rush Limbaugh
    2) Grover Norquist
    3) Sarah Palin
    4) The Donald
    5) The Koch Bros.
    6) Ruuuu-dee

    She didn't want the Derek Harper rumors to get out.

    So when Sarah says "no" does she mean "yes?"

    Or am I thinking of Chris Christie?

    Huh. I didn't realize Christie was running.
     
  7. Sucks for her....with Steve Jobs' death, she's fallen off the top story chart.

    I bet she's secretly pissed.
     
  9. Don't worry, Fox News has placed her over Jobs as the lead story on their prime time gabfests.

    So now that she is no longer a possible contender for the GOP nomination, I wonder how the networks will justify mentioning her.

    It's not like Palin's political career had half the impact of a Christie Todd Whitman.
