    The issue of illegal immigration and the pandering by President Obama will be an issue in the 2102 Presidential race. You see, Obama needs to win those Hispanic votes in Florida and New Mexico for his re-election campaign. And, he hopes to fund raise in the Hispanic communities in California where he is a lock to win in this very “blue” state.

    With regards to Sarah Palin, I think she will run – as other D.C. pundits have said.

    Former Bush advisor Karl Rove says he believes former Alaska governor Sarah Palin will enter the Republican presidential race sometime around Labor Day.  Appearing on Fox News Saturday morning, Rove said Palin “has a schedule next week that looks like that of a candidate, not a celebrity.” Rove also cited a new campaign-style video Palin has released on her recent visit to the Iowa State Fair as evidence Palin is gearing up for a run.

    Palin will be the keynote speaker at the Tea Party of America’s “Restoring America” event in Iowa September 3.  The event location was recently moved from Waukee, Iowa, to Indianola, Iowa to accommodate a larger crowd.

    “This is her last chance,” Rove said.  “She either gets in or gets out [after the Iowa visit].  I think she gets in.”

    A late entry into Iowa always raises questions about whether a candidate has the time to raise money, build an organization and meet voters face-to-face.  Rove was asked whether a Palin candidacy might operate from “a different playbook” — that is, one that does not touch the traditional bases in Iowa.  “She thinks the normal rules don’t apply,” Rove said.  “If you’re Sarah Palin, you just show up and the money comes and the organization comes and the people come.”

    Chris, congrats on your fund raising campaign. In this poor economy, where many are struggling, it is refreshing to see that people will sacrifice to support your quality work at Day By Day.
