Former Alaska Gov. and 2008 GOP vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin is among those scheduled to appear at the inaugural Iowa Freedom Summit next month, to be hosted by GOP Rep. Steve King and Citizens United.

A number of past and possibly future GOP presidential hopefuls are scheduled to appear at the event to be held Jan. 24, about a year in advance of the first-in-the-nation Iowa caucuses, including Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas, former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee, retired neurosurgeon Ben Carson, former Sen. Rick Santorum of Pennsylvania, and former House Speaker Newt Gingrich.

The summit is billed as “a launch point for conservative ideas” heading into 2016, and will also give potential candidates a chance to pitch themselves to grassroots party activists who play a significant role in the caucuses every four years.

1. Sounds like the pit crew is tuning up the GOP clown car.

[Blue_Tires]

2. Meh...She'll just put in her usual appearance

say the usual things, collect her check and move on to the next convention...

[Mike Nelson]

3. Would love to see her run!

She's hilarious

[Archae]

4. Notice this get-together uses the standard right-wing bullshit for it's label?

"Freedom"

Just like others use (more like "mis-use&quot terms like "liberty" and "patriot."

"Eeyup, we iz fer freedom an' lib'tee, unless yer a ferriner, moose-lem, a n***** or a queer!"

16. Moose-lem - couldn't help but laugh even though it's offensive. ;-)

[madokie]

5. KO said it best

'that woman is an idiot"

[AlbertCat]

6. Quick!

Get The Dome ready!

[Fred Sanders]

7. Where is a cop and a chokehold when you really need one?

[Judi Lynn]

8. Man, talk about a list of losers.... Newtie, Frothytorum, Huckleberry. Jeebus.

9. Remember to fan out to inflate your numbers, teabaggers!

[SoapBox]

11. Evil and disgraceful.

...both them.

[Major Hogwash]

12. Even Republicans have grown tired of her.

Sarah Palin says she "hopefully" will run for office once again, . . .

What is that supposed to mean?
She doesn't know if she will ever run again, unless and until someone else pushes her on to the stage??

A box of Tupperware is smarter than Paiin!

[Mike Daniels]

17. "Hopefully" - IOW she'll run if she doesn't have to go through a primary

If the GOP gets every other candidate to just back off so Sarah can get the nomination she'll run for office.

If she actually has to go into a debate where even her GOP opponents are going to point out that she quit her last job and hasn't served in any form of office for "x" number of years she won't bother.
