Iowa, Dec 6 (THAINDIAN NEWS) There is mounting speculation that the former Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin is going to announce a possible presidential bid with a stop in Iowa during her national book-signing tour.

This is being speculated because Iowa’s caucuses have traditionally launched the presidential nominating season.

Sarah Palin’s book-signing tour has been carefully planned and overseen, and she has not spoken to reporters at most events. However her appearance in Iowa is being seen as very significant, and most people think that in this visit, there is more than is seen to the eye.

Veteran Republican activist Tim Albrecht said that, ‘politicians don’t just happen to stop in Iowa and Palin must know that her visit is seen as a signal she is considering a run’.

She had come as guest on Oprah Winfrey’s show too and there too, she seemed an eager beaver for the 2012 Presidential Elections. She gave diplomatic answers when asked about her plans to host a talk show that could be in direct competition to Oprah’s. It was neither a confirmatory answer nor a direct denial.
