Sarah Palin Ready to Enter Presidential Race?

It appears Sarah Palin could be poised to enter the 2012 presidential race, with expectations she'll announce sometime around the Labor Day weekend, according to Karl Rove.

On September 3, Palin will be the keynote speaker at the Tea Party of America's "Restoring America" event in Iowa, which could be the ideal time for her to make an announcement, if in fact that is her intention.

Rove said about the timing, "This is her last chance. She either gets in or gets out. I think she gets in."

If Palin gets in, she'll be running on her own terms and strategy, which will be interesting. Rove has been skeptical of Palin skirting the trappings of traditional campaigning and still being able to win, but Rove has admitted politics is changing, but wouldn't admit Palin may be on the right track.

This could be because Rove and others like him have dictated much of the platform and agenda, and Palin it appears, assuming she enters the race, will dictate what she wants to address and focus on if she runs.
