Sarah Palin Movie Premiere: 'The Undefeated' Film Brings Former Governor To Iowa

Sarah Palin Movie Premiere

PELLA, Iowa — Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin said Tuesday she's still thinking about whether to run for president, dismissing a comment from her daughter that she'd already made up her mind.

Palin spoke with reporters during a visit to the small Iowa town of Pella, where she and her husband attended the first public screening of "The Undefeated," a film about her rise in politics that has stoked speculation about her political future.

The Republican greeted supporters – some of whom chanted her name and urged her to run for president – outside the Pella Opera House, where she joined 350 supporters for the film.

Her daughter, Bristol, said during a television interview earlier Tuesday with Fox News that her mother had definitely made a decision about whether to run, but that "there are some things that we talk about at the kitchen table that stay at the kitchen table."

Sarah Palin said the remark was either taken out of context or inaccurate. She said deciding to run for president is a "tough decision" and she's not ready to announce her intentions.

Palin grabbed the spotlight in Iowa several hours after President Barack Obama toured a factory in Bettendorf, in far eastern Iowa, and one day after Congresswoman Michele Bachmann announced she was seeking the Republican nomination in her Iowa hometown of Waterloo.

Iowa is home to the nation's first presidential caucuses.

Undefeated: Antonyms: beaten, defeated, losing, and winless, now this sounds more like Ms. Palyin.

"The Undefeated" should have been named " The Half Term Governor, Quitter."

Obama has these factual economic record in 2 and a half years in office. Debt of $ 14.4 trillion , unemployment of 9.1 %, highest poverty rate, food stamps use, bankruptcies, foreclosures, sued Arizona for protecting our borders, prosecuting our own CIA interrogators.

...and all was rosy under the Bush administration, right? When Bush left office with his tail between his legs and went into hiding, Obama stepped in to a budget in the black, no wars, and no economic collapse yet, right? Take off your blinders, fool.

Palin is so playing games. Her movie, "undefeated", huh? Is she a reality tv star, a politician, or a candidate for President. She is so hungry for media coverage, and then plays the victim if anyone mistreats her. What a narcissistic, self-absorbed woman with very little substance.
