Sarah has made up her mind about 2012

[Mz Pip]

So says Bristol. But she's not telling anyone yet. Such a tease, that Sarah - managing to stay in the news without saying anything.

1. ...and a mind is a terrible thing to waste...

2. Once she is no longer a presidential possibility her value drops to 0

So she will keep the tease up as long as possible to get those speaking fees and sell her drivel.
I thought she would have to say by the time of the Ames, Iowa straw poll.
But since Romney and Huntsman are ignoring it she can pretend to ignore it also and not hurt her scam.

4. Of course she's running

How else will she keep herself in the news when the media really starts paying attention to the candidates? Nobody will pay any attention to another bus trip or coloring book with her name on it unless she runs.

5. I agree with Larry O'Donnell - FUX would have fired her

back in March along with Man-On-Dog Santorum and triple-wedding Newster.
But as long as she can pretend and fool people, she has value; once the pretension of running is gone her value is 0.

3. Feed a few wine coolers to either of them. They'll give it away.

The decision, that is.

7. She's not running.

If she were, she'd still be on the bus.

Why are we still talking about her?

8. It's much easier to give an hour speech every week, and rake in the cash.

She doesn't want to do any work. She's just ready for her close-up, Mister DeMille.

9. I think she's not running but believes she can set herself up as king-maker

That, plus the move to Arizona, says to me she's going to run for the House or Senate.
