Sarah Palin: Ive Considered A Senate Run
Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin (R) is considering going back on the ballot.
In an interview on "The Sean Hannity Show" Tuesday, the 2008 vice presidential candidate indicated she might throw her hat in the ring to become one of Alaska's U.S. Senators.
"I've considered it because people have requested me considering it," Palin said, after Hannity mentioned rumors of a potential Senate run.
"I'm still waiting to see, you know, what the lineup will be and hoping that, there again, there will be some new blood, new energy -- not just kind of picking from the same old politicians in the state," Palin continued.

(40,212 posts)She isn't interested in an actual job in politics. It is actual work. She went into politics for the spotlight and attention. She hated being the governor. It bored her.

(8,492 posts)I don't know whether that sentence makes me want to laugh or cry.
Let me translate: "I will consider a Senate run as long as it takes for me to grab a few more bucks from you suckers. Then, I'll claim the 'lamestream media' is making my family miserable and that family is always first so...sorry, gotta go! Thanks for the money...er...love and support!"

(117 posts)....because those SarahPac donations are running dry and the 'rack' is heading for my knees and those stupid rubes won't fall for another Presidential tease like they did in 2016.....so I'm keeping all future funding/grifting options open.
