Why is she looking for the spotlight...
Sarah Palin is busy. I don't know, correct me if I'm wrong (I'm sure someone will), but most folks, after they lose an election, kind of keep a low profile for a while...this woman is out there. It still scares me that she could have been "one heartbeat from the presidency." I think her nomination as VP cost old John McCain plenty of votes, but that's just my opinion.
Her office later Wednesday issued a news release saying these were bipartisan events in Washington, D.C., and not related to Republican party activities.
In stark contrast, Palin earlier this week launched SarahPAC, a political fundraising organization, so she wouldn't use state funds to attend events that might be considered political.
She catapulted into the public eye last year as GOP presidential candidate John McCain's running mate and is widely believed to be eyeing a presidential bid in 2012. Aides said the PAC will help serve as a vehicle for her political activities going forward.
Palin, however, denied that it means she is running for president.
"No. Not at all. Not at all. No. It's helpful to have a PAC so when I'm invited to things, even like to speak at the Lincoln Day dinner in Fairbanks, to have the PAC pay for that instead of have the state pay for that because that could be considered quasi-political," she said.
Palin also attempted to shoot down rumors that she's in line for a big payday from a publishing house.
