This is yet another article on Sarah Palin — the almost but not quite full term governor of Alaska who is now in pursuit of the Presidency in 2012 through an almost but not quite campaign. Alaska’s former half-term governor has been eyeing the 2012 Republican nomination for the Presidency long before it needed to be filled. After a few gaffes out on the non-campaign campaign trail and a one-season reality series covering Palin family life in Alaska on the Discovery Channel, Mrs. Palin has re-invented herself yet again.
Sarah began campaigning on Saturday by launching her “One Nation” tour — a gambit she refers to as a “family vacation”, wherein members of the Palin family are to engage in a summer-long meet and greet with members of the American public along the eastern seaboard, making a left turn towards Iowa — the first primary state in the presidential sweepstakes — sometime later in the summer. Think of it as an extended family road trip, but instead of an Airstream trailer, its a fully-equipped passenger bus with the Constitution’s Bill of Rights painted on it. She therefore began her campaign while, as Eric appropriately wrote in his daily astrology report for last weekend, “three planets were aligned in what is called a T-square, which is behind much of the mischief and turmoil of the world right now. And in our current stretch of time, the Moon sweeps through that T-square, knocking all three of those planets like cue ball on a pool table, stirring up all kinds of deep feelings, past and present fears, insecurities and so on.”
