The Freeper reactions are predictable:

Not too good. This should change. LOVE YA SARAH!

She won’t speak but McCain will. That’s real forward looking.
Insert eyeroll here.

Classy lady … too bad they won’t let her speak — afraid she’ll outshine them, probably.

The GOP-Es will soon be promoting Ryan as the real future of the Republican Party. I say “Not so fast”. It remains to be seen how he and his family will respond to the sh!t storm that will be coming his way. He may or may not be up to it.
Meanwhile, Governor Palin will support the top of the ticket, but she won’t be campaigning for it. Mark my word, she will own the undercard and will be the de facto leader of the party, regardless of what the establishment tries to say.

Nowhere in her statement does Palin say she will not speak.

The headline and the lead are shoddy BS from Reuters hacks.

She is always so gracious and has worked hard as hell to save this nation.

Sarah always takes the high road.
She instinctively knows which path is the right one.
So many could learn from her but they feel threatened by her insight and strength.

She wasn’t invited. All told, I think she’s being quite gracious about having been slapped in the face.

She has been very enthusiastic about Ryan and endorsed both of them yesterday.

She was the VP candidate the last time around, after all, and they should at least be courteous and invite her.

That said, members of polygamist sects have problems dealing with independent women, and I think Romney is displaying this and should reassess his behavior right now. He’d do himself a serious favor by asking her to speak, and if nothing else, he should remember that she has a lot of devoted followers and he doesn’t, so he needs them.
