2012 Plains

The Republican Party received disappointment from last week’s election but an optimistic Sarah Palin is not ruling out 2012. She admits that the campaign trail was a brutal ride but says that she would not hesitate to run in 2012 as long as its gods will.

“I’m like, OK, God, if there is an open door for me somewhere, this is what I always pray, I’m like, don’t let me miss the open door,” Palin said in an interview with Fox News on Monday. “And if there is an open door in ‘12 or four years later, and if it is something that is going to be good for my family, for my state, for my nation, an opportunity for me, then I’ll plow through that door.”

Palin claims that some of McCain’s top aids spread rumors that she burdened the McCain campaign and ended up costing John McCain votes in the final election.

“I think the economic collapse had a heckuva lot more to do with the campaign’s collapse than me personally,” “There were a lot of times I wanted to shout out, ‘Hey, wait a minute, it’s not true.’ It’s pretty brutal.” Palin said on the Today show.

 Palin has expressed how surprised she was that the McCain campaign did as well as it did despite the unpopularity of the Bush administration.

“I think the Republican ticket represented too much of the status quo, too much of what had gone on in these last eight years, that Americans were kind of shaking their heads like going, wait a minute, how did we run up a $10 trillion debt in a Republican administration? How have there been blunders with war strategy under a Republican administration? If we’re talking change, we want to get far away from what it was that the present administration represented and that is to a great degree what the Republican Party at the time had been representing,” Palin said in a story published by the Anchorage Daliy News.

Palin is far form out of the spotlight has many up coming interviews with CNN, Fox News, and NBC. She will also be attending the Republican Governors Association conference in Florida.

Many people across the country would love to see Palin run in 2012. One supporter, Sally Love, from West Michigan said, “I feel she would be a great president……I know she cares for the middle class. I feel she would be a great leader.”
