A caller asked Rush today whether he thought Chris Christie would run, and after being pushed, Rush said that his gut tells him that neither Christie nor Palin is going to run:

Well, my gut tells me that he’s not going to run. Same thing with Sarah Palin, by the way. Don’t think either of them are going to run.

If that was true, you wouldn't spend your entire life going all over the internet posting this same trash on every website.

You know if she runs, she wins, and there isn't anything you and who ever pays you to spam the internet can do about it.

This from a known internet troll. Nothing but your usual lies and misinformation.

Mansour doesn't run Conservatives4Palin .

Oh, and the only way Palin "loses" is if she DOESN'T run. If she runs, and gets beat she can come back. Reagan lost in 1976 and came back to win two historic landslide elections.

Sarah has had plenty of opportunities to say she wasn't going to run. She's been asked point blank in many interviews if she wants her supporters at Organize4Palin to stop what they are doing. She's not only said no she doesn't, she's given them encouragement to keep going.

Palin is using smart strategy here. She's allowing the rest of these loser candidates to be vetted. That would have never happened had she gotten in earlier.

She has been playing too many games. I wouldn't trust her now. She should have been there with all the other candidates in the debates. Seems too little to late now. Seems all she would do now is create new divisions which could possibly throw the general election.

I somewhat agree with you. I think a woman winning may help, though.

I still think her and her old friend Rick Perry have planned from the beginning who runs and who gets chosen.

What makes you think Palin and Perry are "old friends" ? Just who do you think she's talking about when she talks about crony capitalism in both parties? She's talking about Rick Perry!

Notice the only one she's praised is Herman Cain.

All Sarah has to do is announce that she is running and she is going to win.

Of course, she can not win if she doesn't run...

I doubt Cain would turn many black heads and it doesn't matter anyway. We do not need the Black vote to blast Obama out of the water. It's a good thing many are becoming disenchanted with him but that only means they'll stay home instead of voting. Conservatives and like minded Independents still outnumber liberals in this country and that's why it's important we get this guy out of the white house and Democrats outnumbered in the Congress so we can turn this country around while we still can. Many people think liberals and Blacks are the majority just because that's what the media wants us to think. But it just ain't so and it's time to make our presence felt in no uncertain terms.

To hell with what the media, Hollywood or liberal politicians say, they are in the minority in this country and so are their views and it's time for us to put them and socialism in it's place...the dust heap of history.

Sarah is right where she should be vs Obama in the polls. Sarah will gain in popularity as more and more people hear her speak. Truth touches the human heart and people will see her as a genuine, honest intelligent, capable, patriotic candidate. She will beat Obama with straight talk and effective criticisms. Cain would be a great running mate.

Sarah has plenty of time to get the truth out about who she is and what she stands for. When Shephen Harper,Canada's conservative prime minister first ran for office he told the national msm to take a hike. He called them biased liberal hacks and only talked to the local papers etc. So he got his message out that way. Each city has a left and right leaning paper so people always had a chance to get the facts. Not so with the national media with its 99% liberal bias. It appears that Sarah is using a similar strategy. GO GIRl.

The more I learn about Sarah the more I respect her. She will be a great President. She will do what has to be done. I like Bachmann but But Palin is more refined and given the chance is better at winning people over to her side. It almost brings me to tears when I think of what the dirty left wing smear machine has put this woman through. She is one tough cookie. Someone should put together a good documentary fully exposing their miserable attempts to destroy this great American women and trash conservative women in general.. How about it Rush,Glenn?

First she resigned as governor, and now she can't make a decision. People complained about Obama taking so long about sending more troops to Afghanistan, self included, and I see this as being no different. Or maybe she has already decided not to run, but is keeping people dangling because she likes the attention. I don't know. I used to be a big fan, but as far as I'm concerned, it's too late for her. She blew her chance, and her inability to "make a decision" proves she doesn't have what it takes to be president.

Rush is probably right, he usually is. That said, ABO will win.

I gave her money over a month ago via SarahPAC. First donation I've ever made. I don't regret it even if she doesn't run. I support her message. But dangit, Sarah, will you please run?! :)

She 's bound to Todd and her family and if she says yes,the attacks will simply amplify.It's between family or famous person,I'm feeling she's torn inside thinking for her family.I would encourage Todd to free her,since the country NEEDS her

I wish I could agree about Cain. I think the black population will tend to treat him like they did Rice. They'll "uncle tom" him all day...and his presence might even exacerbate the tension.

Nevertheless, I hope he kicks the crap out of Romney and Perry. He is a great man. Unfortunately, his own race will seek to disown him because of his political affiliation.

I like Rush of course, but he has no special insight into this situation. Sarah and Todd know and everyone else is just guessing.

We will know by the filing deadlines. Pretty simple.

Her comments from her last interview slowed my roll on thinking she will run. She makes sense. The minute you put yourself up as a candidate and the RNC money comes to support you, your message is constrained....not in a robotic, non-thinking for yourself sense, but in a careful way that keeps the funds behind you. She is cognisant of that. She recognizes it from her veep candidacy.

I happen to think that it is less constraining than she might think, but I understand her worry. It could very well keep her from announcing. However, Greta makes a good point that you can effect more change anyway as a candidate.

I'm about 75/25 her running.

Not sure about Sarah not running, but if she doesn't, I'll support anybody but Obama.
