We'd miss her if we knew she was ever really there...

Thank goodness.

She's the reason we have boy wonder in office now.

If the Republicans want to win this, they need to put the fringe 'out-there' candidates back to bed. This will help them.

I think there were a lotta people who changed their vote based on Johnny's decision on running mate.

When was the last time we had a chance to vote FOR a candidate instead of voting AGAINST a candidate?

I don't know how serious she ever was, but watching Bachmann flame out has probably given her a good indication of what her chances were.

No, she'll probably just resign from the class halfway through the term.

First smart decision she's made. Seems Perry is Palin with a pecker.

I remember the day that Collin Powell reminded everyone that if McCain won and then died in office, Sarah would become the C in C. I think that prospect scared a lot of voters.

I think the Secret Service would have had the order to shoot her in this case, to protect the US from imminent danger.
