President 2012 Video: Is Sarah Palin Going to Run for President? You Betcha

Karl Rove on Fox News last night saying he believes Sarah WILL run

As readers know, I was once positive that Sarah Palin would run for President.

My opinion soon changed after her television show ended and the “Blood Libel” speech. Also, affecting my view was her polling, both favorable vs. unfavorable and head to head with GOP opponents and President Obama.

Now, I think with Mike Huckabee, and Mitch Daniels out of the race, her grand strategy was to wait to see who the GOP “Establishment” would put up to face Romney, and if there was none, then go head to head with Mitt.

Michele Bachmann has thrown a little wrinkle into the equation, but Palin has dispatched her run with her Memorial Day bus tour launch. This is not to say that Bachmann will not run, because she will. Bachmann and Palin will both do well in Iowa but then Bachmann will fade.

So, despite some pundits who seem to lean against a Sarah Palin campaign, I think she is a go.

Sarah Palin: “Game on, Mr. President.”
