For those of you who may have doubted my contention that Palin was up to something with all of this sudden accessibility, I think this appearance should put those doubts to rest.
Just look at how flirtatious, and gregarious she is in this clip. That is NOT the Sarah Palin that we have seen these last three years.
That is a Sarah Palin on the make.
That is a Sarah Palin who has something to sell, and the only marketable commodity she has is, of course, Sarah Palin.
But this is a different version of Sarah Palin. Gone are the aloof attitude and condescending demeanor of appearances past. This is a woman who seemingly cannot afford to let ego get in the way of her goal of using charm to ingratiate herself with the folks at Fox News.
In the interview itself Sister Sarah comports herself as very fun loving and laid back, and it is revealed that she even apparently bought chocolates for Bob Beckel. (Using her money to buy things for others?)
She of course brings up Trig, and tries immediately tries to put the kibosh on speculation that she is not mothering him appropriately, or meeting his needs, by saying that he is getting fitted for new glasses. (How convenient.)
Of course she also reveals that SHE will not be the one taking him to "pick out those frames." That task is left up to Willow. (Who by the way
still wants to be a hairdresser.)
Now some wondered how Willow could do that while attending school, but that is a silly question as school is out halfway through the day so there is plenty of time for an appointment.
My first question however is WHY is Willow the one that is taking Trig to get glasses, and NOT super spouse Todd Palin?
Yes I know he is supposedly in deep preparation for the Iron Dog, but surely he can still make it to an eyeglass appointment, right? Something feels a little chilly in the Palin fake marriage department if you ask me. Which could also be part of the reason that Palin is so keen to be far away from Wasilla right now, and so desperate to make sure she has options available to her.
I am interested to see if new spit and polish Palin shows up to see hubby off when the race starts tomorrow at Big Lake (Oops, I stand corrected, the race starts
on Sunday. I must have checked the wrong link.), or if she will still be hawking her wares in New York? THAT might be very telling indeed.
So folks what do you think? Is Palin looking for a new job? And new shot at politics? Or, perhaps, a new sugar daddy?
By the way here is
the link to the interview with Eric Bolling, which contains the following exchange which has many people speculating that Palin is thinking of jumpinig in if there is a brokered convention. (There won't be.)
The topic came up again later in the conversation, when Bolling brought up the possibility of a brokered convention in August. “If it does get to that,” Bolling asked, “and someone said ‘Governor, would you be interested,’ would you be interested?” Palin began her answer asserting that she saw the possibility of a brokered convention as a very real one. “If it had to be kind of closed up today, the whole nominating process, then we would be looking at a brokered convention,” she responded, since “nobody is quite there yet.” If it came to a brokered convention, “all bets are off as to who it will be willing to offer themselves up in the name of service to their country.”She added only that she “would be willing to help any way that I can.”
That is the weakest tease that Palin can throw out there, and yet there are some (looking at you C4P) who jump on it like it is some coded message that Palin is going to hijack the nomination process and ride into save the Republican party from having to support Mitt.
Personally I WISH it were true that she was considering jumping into the race, so much fun for me you know, but it's not.
