SEPTEMBER 2012:
Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin gives an interview on Fox News in which she announces that "it's not too late" for her to enter the race for the 2012 GOP nomination. "Who knows what might happen in the future?" she chirps to an incredulous Gretchen Carlson.
Despite the fact that the nomination has already been awarded to Romney, contributions pour in to Palin's campaign headquarters. Palin uses the contributions to purchase a yacht, which she christens the "One Nation" and uses on an extended "campaign tour" of the U.S. Virgin Islands.

I'm always suspicious, though, that she just drops these tidbits to keep the cash comin'. nt

(37,540 posts)Rick's support consisted of undecideds opting for him at the last minute...not really a base that you can build on. But anything is possible with today's Republican Party and the people who vote for them. Personally, I think she could stay on the sidelines for the entire primary season and, if the convention becomes brokered and hopelessly deadlocked, she could sweep in as the great compromise candidate.

(1,248 posts)I've seen a few recent Fox interviews with her and it's quite evident that Sarah is going through full-blown menopause. She's got menopause face. Knowing Sarah, she's toughing it out instead of taking any meds. Disaster. Please run.

And for what it's worth, she's only 47, which would be a bit on the young side for actual menopause. In any event, what in the world does her menopausal state have to do with anything at all?
