If Karl Rove had been trying to hide his complete contempt for Sarah Palin in the past for the sake of Reagan’s eleventh commandment, he all but gave up on it tonight. Speaking to Greta Van Susteren tonight, Rove lashed out at Palin’s statement that his speculation on her candidacy was wrong by repeatedly referring to her “thin skin” and daring Palin to “end the speculation” and say she isn’t running if such speculation upsets her.

A week after the Iowa State Fair and Ames Straw Poll, Sarah Palin has released a new campaign something ad commemorating that stop on her campaign something bus tour. The video, entitled “Iowa Passion,” is a typically classy affair from the former Governor. Looking a bit like the opening credits to Friday Night Lights, it shows the beautiful sights and sounds of the fair intercut with media figures and Iowans speaking rapturously about Palin. All in all, it’s an impressive bit of campaigning somethinging.

She’s got a bus covered in over-the-top patriotic images (Liberty Bell, Constitution, American flag, Sarah Palin’s signature) and she’s ready to roll. Sarah Palin sets off on the “One Nation” bus tour Sunday, and we’re getting a preview of the bus itself today. In case you forget the second half of the pledge of allegiance, fear not: it’s on the side of the bus. There’s also an invitation to “join the fundamental restoration of America!” Yep, it’s big and bold, but don’t be confused. It’s not the launch of a presidential campaign. It just looks that way.

With the 2012 Presidential race a veritable media circus since the Donald Trump birther parade rolled in, many have been wondering when his temporary eclipsing of presumed frontrunner last year Sarah Palin would end. Searching for a sign, Politico reported today that Palin had redesigned her PAC website, which is “the first move in sometime that will give oxygen to speculation that Palin is planning a presidential run.”

In the days following the massacre in Tucson, former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin has become a focal point in the media conversation about the shootings. A confluence of events has linked Palin to the shooting, despite a lack of any evidence of a causal link. Aside from some ludicrous backstopping by an aide and a partial email to Glenn Beck, however, the normally loquacious media supernova has been uncharacteristically silent on this issue.

Shortly after reports surfaced that Rep. Gabrielle Giffords had been shot point-blank range during a meet and greet event in a Tuscon area Safeway parking lot, the managers of the website for Sarah Palin’s website SarahPAC took down some controversial imagery that included gun sight symbols over various congressional districts in political play, many on [...]

Sarah Palin may not have convinced many people that she’s qualified to be president but there’s no question the woman could run a major media operation. Of course, one might argue that’s exactly what she’s been doing since quitting her job as Alaska’s governor. Behold her latest offering: A fun new video from SarahPac titled ‘Together’ featuring a slew of Tuesday’s big winners (and Palin endorsements)

For all of the men out there who loved Sarah Palin’s last totally-not-a-campaign-ad campaign ad but felt left out of the “Mama Grizzlies” theme, it’s your lucky day! Palin just tweeted a link to her latest video which is inclusive to Grizzlies of every gender, size, or creed. Just as long as they’ve never been anywhere near one of those darn Beltways!

To paraphrase our current President, Sarah Palin’s supporters acted stupidly in defending Meg Stapleton’s decision to deny divorce rumors on Palin’s Facebook page. Conservatives4Palin is leading the charge to conflate the unsourced Alaska Report story with CNN, in an apparent attempt to push the “media martyr” meme.
