The definite reluctance of any potential GOP candidate to actually make a public declaration of candidacy is interesting, possible revealing...for all the loud GOP and Tea Party bluster, can it be that no body wants to be the GOP "sacrificial token candidate" that goes down in flames against Obama? That any of those with any real smarts that are serious about the presidency figure to play it safe by not running until 2016, when they actually have a chance of winning?

He is probably smart enough to turn a deaf ear to whatever Palin has to say. A rich/wealthy person in office, good by middle-class.

Gee.....I wonder if that is because no one has offically declared their candidacy....establishing exploratory committies does not constitute a declaration of candidacy
