Palin's Bus Tour Leads Reporters, Supporters On Wild Goose Chase

Sarah Palin will take her nationwide bus tour to Iowa in June, according to Real Clear Politics -- one more sign that the former Alaska governor intends to run for president in 2012.
"The road trip was designed as a test run to find out whether she can execute a decidedly unconventional campaign game plan," RCP reports. "Palin -- and especially her husband, Todd -- is said to be leaning toward running. But multiple sources said that their foremost remaining concern was whether it would be logistically feasible for their large family to hit the road together for the next several months in a prospective campaign that would rely heavily on bus travel."
Palin has kept the details of the bus tour under wraps, leading reporters and supporters on a bit of a wild goose chase. She started Day 2 of her tour Monday at the National Archives in Washington, DC, then
traveled to Mount Vernon to pay homage to her favorite Founding Father, George Washington.
Meanwhile, Palin supporters, reacting to
reports that she would be making stops in Pennsylvania, Massachusetts, and New Hampshire, apparently gathered Monday afternoon at Gettysburg, in the hopes that she was on her way, only to be disappointed.
Visits to key 2012 states like Iowa and New Hampshire will continue to fuel speculation about Palin's presidential ambitions. But Palin has refused to say whether she will enter the race for the GOP nomination. “This isn’t a campaign bus,” she
told reporters as she left the Archives Monday.

Are you surprised?  How can her supporters even begin to know what she has planned, when she; as usual, doesn’t have a clue herself.  It doesn’t matter if she announces a run for the presidency, the media will follow her every move.  For the next six to eight months you will hear about and from her, more than you ever wanted to.  Trust me; this is not about a presidential run.  This is about continued press coverage and what that coverage will do for her ability to make money.  Sarah Palin is a waste of time and a waste of media resources.  She will either be the greatest political spoiler in recent history, or she will fizzle before she launches; either way she will never be our President, she is only destined to continue her role as the Great American laughingstock.
