Palin, Obama To Share Stage: 2012 Preview?
What do you all think, is this a preview of 2012?
Sarah Palin and President Barack Obama will share a stage together this Saturday night in Washington, Politico has learned.
The Alaska governor and former GOP vice presidential nominee, making her first trip to the nation’s capital since the election, will join the president at the Alfalfa Dinner, a venerable gathering of the city’s political elite.
The president is scheduled to address the black-tie crowd at the Capital Hilton. Palin spokesman Bill McAllister said in an e-mail that Palin would be speaking at the dinner.
An Alfalfa Club member, however, said that no speech by the Alaska governor was planned.
I don’t know whether it is a preview (I don’t like gambling), but it could certainly be. Palin is setting herself up for a future presidential run; she is working hard to put a fundraising infrastructure in place, and she’s networking rather aggressively.
She’s effective, moves in fast and knows what she’s doing. Keep both your eyes on her.
