My opinion. Like I said I am a fan, I know why I comment about her, why do you? Do you take her seriously? Do you think she is more than a fringe candidate? Obliviously you do based on your responses here.

O.k. then stop worrying about my opinion and tell me yours. Start with why do you care about Palin? Why do you bother with her?

Quote:
If the Republicans nominate someone like Romney or a similar corporate conservative rather than a Huckabee or a hardcore social conservative, then the possibility of Palin as a third party, Tea Party, candidate becomes possible....given that she has suggested she would consider running as a third party candidate...which, again, makes her newsworthy.
In my opinion Palin will not be a third party candidate. I see nothing that would indicate she has ever given that serious thought.

She has two choices....either come out and say NO and I am not running for President under any circumstances and make the big bucks selling books or step up and act like a potential candidate and not a victim continually sniping from behind facebook and twitter or on Hannity's (her best bud) show.
She has the same choices as anyone else, I don't get your point. Is the issue that you resent that Palin has options beyond what you presented above?

I suspect you would likely just twist and turn the direction of the discussion again...your trademark!
Of course my questions are frivolous, otherwise you would not be engaging me. I see a pattern. That aside, and even if you don't care and it is not about you in particular, I am really trying to understand the Palin phenomenon with people who don't like her, don't think she is serious, and don't fear her. Why does a professional writer need to write about what she is not gonna write about, illustrated in the OP? Why does a poster here start a thread asking people to join along with a boycott of commenting on Palin - why not just stop? What are the dramatics about?
