Sarah Palin decided to let her fans know her decision on the Mark Levin show where she said that after much prayer she decided not to run for the GOP nomination because Todd and she were too devoted to their family. I guess it wasn't Nicole Wallace's revelations yesterday that the McCain camp thought her so unstable by the end of the 2008 campaign that they wondered whether ,if they won, it would be appropriate to let her take the oath of office. Her character inspired Wallace to write a new novel about a Sarah Palin character as an absolutely insane Vice President.
I wonder what SarahPac will do with the proceeds from their fund-raising effort to help Sarah make the decision.
But make no mistake Sarah Palin represents the base of today's Republican Party. But Roger Ailes, who New York magazine suggests is too rich and too old to care what he says, said that he hired Sarah because she was "hot" and got good ratings. Now that she has bowed out how long will it be before Fox jettisons her.
I guess the real loser today is Andrew Sullivan. Andrew, the one-man band on the mystery surrounding the birth of Trig, will never know who the youngster's mother really is.
But think how far she has fallen. Chris Christie gets every news outlet to travel to Trenton for a press conference announcing his decision not to run. She issues her statement on a little heard right-wing talk show.
And pity me. I have moved backed and forth on this issue. I thought the collapse of Michelle Bachmann would have provoked Sarah Palin to wrap herself around the mantle of Queen Esther.
