Where's Waldo

Over at the Althouse Blog there is a post on a New York Times article on former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin and family visiting the monuments in our Nation's Capital.

It seems the Palins were able to be out and about without causing a big media crush.  Just bumping into "folks".

The NYT lede was:
Sarah Palin and her family sneaked out in Washington on Sunday night for what she called an “incognito” tour of the national monuments, having successfully created a media frenzy and then ditched the press
You can tell it is The Times since they said "sneaked" instead of "snuck".  Incidently, nice picture of Todd in the article.

This is an interesting gimmick, the "One Nation" bus tour.  I think it is irritating The New York Times reporter, Michael D Shear, who says she could end all this.  All she has to do is admit she won't be running for President.
She could announce that she is not running for president.

So far, she has not.
Is she?

  1. and then.....one might even be moved to ask, "Why would she want to run?" She has a new house in AZ, an old house in AK, a very nice steady stream of big bucks to afford both, and who knows, perhaps an opportunity to be the next Republican governor of AZ. It could happen.

    Or something else.......

    The only real threat to the current occupant of 1600 PA Ave is Rick Perry....and he hasn't decided whether he wants to move. Mitch Daniels already decided its much nicer in IN. Good choice for him....not for us.

  2. Her speaking engagements are slowing down and some have not been profitable for event planners. If she doesn't keep her name in the news, she will have to lower her speaker's fee again. They have already dropped from $150,000 for two hours of her time to $100,000.

Please be forthright, but please consider that this is not a barracks.
