Palin Looking to God for Guidance


If you missed it last night, Sarah Palin interviewed with FOX’s Greta Van Susteren. Watch her talk about the clothes controversy here.

She also addresses everything under the sun plus a possible 2012 presidential bid. Read below from Fox News:

Amid speculation nationwide about Palin's political future, the governor told FOX News that she's unsure of what 2012 will bring, but added that she doesn't intend on running away from future criticism.

"Your life is an open book and you open yourself up to criticism and you'd better be ready to take that criticism," Palin said. "In other words, don't run for office if you can't handle it."

Palin, who could seek re-election in 2010 or potentially run for president in four years, said she will rely on faith.

"Putting my life in my creator's hands -- this is what I always do," she said. "I'm like, OK, God, if there is an open door for me somewhere, this is what I always pray, I'm like, don't let me miss the open door ... And if there is an open door in '12 or four years later, and if it is something that is going to be good for my family, for my state, for my nation, an opportunity for me, then I'll plow through that door."

Candidates like Palin and Huckabee are popular with social conservatives but the trick for both of them will be to broaden their appeal with the other segments  of the GOP without alienating social conservatives. Palin in 2012? What do you think? She has some work to do and that work starts now.
