Sarah Palin Claims She Wants To Run For Office Again

Sarah Palin has a message for the haters: “I’m gonna bug the crap out of ‘em by being out there, with a voice, with a message, hopefully running for office in the future, too.”

I think we can put the likelihood of Palin running for office again right up there with “when pigs fly.” After all, this is the woman who is the poster child for ignorant politicians and who quit her last elected office via a rambling and inexplicable announcement. Just a few months ago, a poll found that 54% of Americans are tired of hearing from her. This is not a woman who has a mandate nor one who will likely have one ever.

But on today’s Varney & Co., host Stuart Varney pretended otherwise. Or maybe he was just too busy helping her play the victim card.

“The hatred level directed against you is absolutely extraordinary and it’s a disgrace,” Varney said at the beginning of the interview.

Never mind the hatred Palin directs against others. Varney certainly didn’t. Even when she later went on one of her trademark rants against liberals. Instead, he asked whether all those meanies have “driven you out of politics?”

No, not at all, Palin insisted. She replied:

Uh, no. Bless their hearts, those haters out there. They don’t understand that it invigorates me. It wants me to get out there and defend the innocent. It makes me want to work so hard for justice in this country. So, hey, the more they’re pouring on, the more I’m gonna bug the crap out of ‘em by being out there, with a voice, with a message, hopefully running for office in the future, too.

But she has not been motivated enough to spend money from her PAC on any of those causes - except her own, eh?

Varney didn’t bring up that bit of embarrassment, either.

Watch it below. (H/T Talking Points Memo)

On what planet does Caribou Barbie and her fans think that running for office will bug the “haters”? Sarah Palin is the best thing to happen to American comedy writers since Dan Quayle. Only her most rabid fans think she’s qualified for some kind of political office, and would run a successful and rousing campaign that will leave everyone awestruck at her political brilliance. The rest of us will just point and laugh and fill up on popcorn as we watch her crash and burn, or at least end her campaign prematurely while whining about being persecuted by the “lamestream media” because they insist on asking her questions she doesn’t like, analyzing her campaign accurately, and portraying her in a less-than-flattering light.

So yes, Sarah, we dare you to run for office. It will be epic entertainment.

It sounds like she just trying to raise money for her PAC. I would love to see her run, but I think that’s unlikely since she’ll never leave her comfort zone.

Most of my Republican family and friends have grown tired of her act and have figured her out and realize that she can only be interviewed by the likes of Sean, Greta and the trio from Fox and Friends who will never challenge her and probably give her the questions they’ll ask her in advance to allow her time to properly answer with the best spin.

Just how stoopit are the people who like this woman? For starters, she has 1 studio in her Alaska home, yet there have been dozens of green-screen backdrops that show how worldly and outdoorsy she is. Do the faithful know it’s all the same studio whether she is standing in front of an outdoor screen grab or an indoor one?

The Whore of Babble-On Sarah desperately trying to stay in the news. Another Palin drunken family brawl might be in the works.

I’m so tired of all the Palin cultists claiming that she intimidates the left, that everyone who is a liberal has their head exploding when she makes another screeching red meat speech. Truth be told, she is boring as hell and should really just go away forever.

Oh please Sarah please run again. Just for the fun of watching your epic failure. Plus it will serve to identify the idiots in Amurka that would support you.

“I’m gonna bug the crap out of ‘em by being out there, with a voice, with a message, hopefully running for office in the future, too.”

So — if we’re to understand her properly, she intends to

- bug people
- be “out there” (presumably on TV)
- use her voice (ugh)
- send out a message (whatever that is)
- and (maybe) run for office

Looks like she has her priorities in order . . .

As we said in another post on the subject, Palin will run again when pigs fly!
