Palin says presidency "not on my radar screen" (translation: she's running in 2012)
CHICAGO (Reuters) - Sarah Palin said a run for the White House in 2012 is "not on my radar screen right now" as the Republican carefully did not close the door to a possible candidacy in an interview that launched her big book tour.

2. That's because stealth UFOs flying under the radar don't show up on radar
See she knows how to NOT say what she's sayin there too, and saying what she's not sayin also.

3. She's out to make a buck. She's NOT running, but she can't come out and say it.
The woman is lazier than sin and the rigors of a years' long debate does not fit with her lifestyle. Plus she will never allow herself to be as humiliated as she was in her many interview FAILS. SHE. IS. NOT. RUNNING.

You heard it hear first.

P.S. If I am wrong, I'll buy you a donut.

5. Professional Pundit.
I think she's looking at the Gingrich/Buchanan/Guiliani/Fred Thompson political business model.

She'll have her little PAC, she'll have some speaking engagements and she'll have her consulting fees.
She's make some money from each, make some politic points, but she'll never be elected for anything again.

I'm sure I can mention some democratic professionals (Wesley Clark, Mike Gravel, John Edwards, Bill Richardson) as well with a similar business model.

I didn't list Howard Dean, because I hope he runs for higher office again.
