Andrew Romano delivers this extract from Sarah Palin's weekend speech before the Safari Club International annual convention -- a confab devoted to hunting.
After some boilerplate comments about how "local government is the most responsive and responsible to
the will of the people" she paused for a moment and stared out across the ballroom. And then came this: "that's why I think every president should have a run at gaining experience by being a councilmember, a mayor, a governor, a VP candidate, a commercial fisherman, a hockey mom."
As the attendees cheered, Palin made a halfhearted attempt to quiet them down. "No, I'm kidding," she said, beaming. "I try to be funny some times. I'm kidding."
But they hoped she wasn't.
This is yet another example of Palin teasing an audience with the possibility of a '12 bid.
Palin, last November, at a fundraiser for a Christian school.
After an alumnus of the private school, north of Doylestown in Bucks County, finished an uplifting performance of "God Bless America," she coyly asked him, "Would you like to sing that at an Inauguration?"
