I read a blog from another Mat-Su resident very verrrry familiar with Palin.  I started reading his blog after the announcement of Palin as VP candidate (this guy was popping holes in a lot of Palin myths [complimentary and uncomplimentary], though he's decidedly no fan.  He also had a lot of Alaskan politics backstory.)

He said that Beck and Palin will be putting on the dog in Anchorage at the Dena'ina Center, with a secret announcement, all on 9/11.

I'm betting this is Palin's coming-out party as a candidate for Pres in 2012.

So place your bets here!  VAA will hold the money!

Stepping out on the town in your finery, in this case a joint appearance at a convention center.

And a secret announcement is, well, a secret announcement.  (In this case, a pre-announced announcement.)

I agree completely.  She's making a ton of money being a political spokeswoman/kingmaker, and she doesn't have to answer to anyone or even speak to the press.

Her brand will be worth much more if she's considered a legit Presidential contender.  I'm curious how she will make a legit run that she will not win.  Winning the GOP nomination is the last thing she would want to do...

She's running and it sure looks like Rick Santorum is too. Going to be fun watching the race to the bottom.

Anyone realize that, if in 2012 a republican wins the Presidency, her "brand" will no longer have any value.

I'll take even money that she never declares herself a candidate or announces her withdrawal from the race on or before Feb. 18, 2012.

Exactly, she won't run but she won't say that she won't run. She's a money machine now.
Now Hillary Clinton, she'll run!

What a shame. The Matanuska- Susitna valley is a pretty nice place. Decent climate, State Fair in Palmer, some decent people, good weed, huge cabbages... and now that moron Blech is going to pollute it.

IMO, he's waaaay overdue for pancreatic cancer.

Bill and Hillary will be a nightmare for Obama and the dems. Your side will also be fun to watch, especially after Nov. 2nd. GO HILLARY
