It is 11pm. Still No Palin Announcement

By: Erick Erickson (Diary)  |  September 30th, 2011 at 11:00 PM  | 

RESIZE: AAA

It’s not us folks. It’s her.

From MSNBC’s First Read on September 5th:

After making speeches in both Iowa and New Hampshire, two early voting states, the question remains as the holiday weekend draws to a close, will she or won’t she? Sarah Palin has indicated her “drop dead” date for a possible presidential announcement is the end of September.

And going all the way back to July 13, 2011, and Scott Conroy with Real Clear Politics:

Decision day is rapidly approaching for Sarah Palin, and for the first time the former Alaska governor has indicated a time frame for when she will make a decision about whether to run for president.

“You know, August and September, you do have to start laying out a plan if you are to be one to throw your hat in the ring, so that’s basically the time frame,” Palin told Sean Hannity during an appearance Wednesday night on Fox News.

    …is what Palin does best.

    Palin cares most about two things:
    1) Herself
    2) the money in your wallet that she wants

    cop walking into studio, the scene of the crime.
    Sarge, what happened.

    Well, it looks like PDS.

    PDS?

    Yeah, PDS.

    Police Department Security?

    Huh, what, no. Palin Derangement Syndrome.
    More acurately, Sarah Palin Derangement Syndrome.

    Palin Derangement Syndrome?

    Yeah. It seams that some Palin supporters get so caught up in a cult like admiration, they can’t distinguish fantasy from reality. anything said about Sarah they don’t like kinda sets them off.

    Is that so.

    Yup. This guy had it bad. Real bad.

    What happened.

    Well, he hit the Daily Double, bet it all because he thought he knew the answer for sure,
    Didn’t put his answer in the form of a question, and lost all his money.
    Got upset, and ran off.

    Ws that it?

    Oh no, that was just the start. They talked him back in, and when they asked him the next question, which reminded him of his heroens downfall, he went beserk, pulled out an AK, and started blasting.

    Wow was anybody hurt, how many.

    Well, there was just one who got fatally injured, sorry to say.

    Who was it.

    Alex Trevek.

    Where is he. Did they take him away yet.

    No, he’s still here, whats left of im.

    Where is he.

    Behind the podium, that pile of hamburger they are putting in a ziplock bag.
    Thats all thats left.

    The suspect, where is he.

    Don’t know yet. They say after he stopped, he threw the gun down, and ran out yelling,
    St Sarah, St Sarah. I love you. I love you. You gotta run.
    You just goooot toooo. Pleeeeease.

    Have we sent out a notification on him?

    We got an APB out. He shouldn’t be hard to find.
    He’s got these black funny glasses that come to a point on the out side, and red high heels on.
    Oh, and he’s wearing a moose skin jacket. We’ve got it out on all the wires.

    Third cop walking in.
    Hey Sarge, they just found the guy.

    Yeah, where was he.

    He was in Los Angeles harbor.
    He was trying to get passage on a boat to Alaska.
    He couldn’t find one and started to swim.

    Ya got him in costody.

    Yes and no. What do you mean, yes and no.

    Well we got him, but he’s dead.

    Did you shoot him, what happened.

    While he was swimming, his moose coat got soaked,
    and it dragged him down.

    That’s too bad.

    Sarge, there is one more thing. When they pulled him up, his head exploded.

    Glory be.

    To all who followed this, I must say this was not planned when I woke up this morning.
    It kind of morphed into what it is. At no time did I disparage Sarah.
    I do like Sarah, and have defended her here many times, even bumping heads with art.
    Everything that was in reference to her is somewhat true.

    Chet is a mythical creature, whom I made up after reading some of the ridiculous posts by some because of Erick having a little fun.
    I believe they need thicker skin, or better yet, a moose coat.
    We all like Sarah in our own way, and yes, even Erick.
    The most I can say to all those who found this little parody,
    and the hourly “Sarah hasn’t announced yet” posts offensive,
    is don’t be a Chet.
    Thank you and Good night.

    their plans, then the ones like Perry shouldn’t be running now, right? You know how he said he will not run for the presidency if he was re-elected as governor?

    Seriously, grow up. And you complain about the obsession of Palin supporters? She changed her mind. What’s the big deal?

    Nevermind, I guess if I was a Perry supporter, which you clearly are, I would be worried too if Palin jumps in given Perry’s debate performance. You’re not helping the man.
