Palin will not seek presidential nomination
(CNN) - Sarah Palin, ending months of speculation, said Wednesday she will not run for president, either as a Republican or third-party candidate.
"This has been prayerfully considered," the former Alaska governor said on the Mark Levin radio program. "I can be on the right path without being a candidate."

Can we focus on the declared candidates now instead of the pols who aren't running?
Relieved to hear Palin won't run. I'm not a liberal but she gives conservatives a bad name...
Oh, really?? What a tragedy :-)!
Hahahaha...she took you Gomer-dope Tea-baggers for million$....hahaha...I told you two years ago she'd never run for President. She just wanted your suckers money. And she got it.
She's a rogue alright. Any of you ever look up rogue in the dictionary?
Finally some good news! Thanks CNN you've brightened up my day after the loss of Steve Jobs and the continuing problems with the economy.
If she's not running then why the heck did she take money from supporters buy a fancy bus, tour historical land marks across the United States making various statements and speeches only to do this. It seem like she conned people into giving her money so she can go on a long vacation and buy fancy things. Safari Investments LLC even bought her a $1.7 million home.
But you know she'll announce the sale of another book very soon...
It's quite simple - regardless of her political beliefs, religious beliefs and high paid advice, she's just not capable of doing the job so who in the Republican party would support her bid? Another term of a female George Bush even scares the most right wing Repubs.
What? No female George Bush for President? I'm telling you, politics is getting less fun to follow these days
Because her party dont want her too.
Praised be the Lord
That is good news for the USA and the world.
Too bad.
I would enjoy the laugh egen she tries to act smart.
Thank God!!!!!!
Thank God if there is one.
"This has been prayerfully considered,"
.....Yes, many of us were praying that she would not.
Palin Not Running!!! She was using up a great deal of valuable breatheable air. What has happened to our country. This woman has absolutely nothing to offer our Country except stoking the fires of the disgruntled. She is uneducated and totally out of touch with what she is supposed to be saying to America. BUT We live in a "free society" where no one tries to stop you from making an absolute Fool of yourself. We just laugh at you. Way to Go, Sarah. Go to Russia maybe they will let you take Putin's place.
Maybe she's smarter than I gave her credit for. I just hope that the "right path" leads her directly to the private sector.
"prayerfully considered"? Maybe there really is a god and he is looking out for America.
Well... you CAN'T be on the right path if you WERE a candidate.
As long as it is "prayerfully considered" then its ok, you can now wither into the abyss
What rotten luck! And we were so looking forward to her formidable presence in the debate arena. Drat!
Does this mean that she will go away now?
Gimme a break .............. She as well as all of us knows she is not qualified!! Nothing but a money grabber from the publicity.
