Rumor Mill Abuzz About Palin's Possible Home Purchase

SCOTTSDALE - Is Sarah Palin moving to the valley? Still no confirmation, but rumors are swirling that Palin recently bought a $1.7-million home in north Scottsdale.

Those rumors are fueling speculation she could run for office in Arizona.

The two big questions are: is Sarah Palin moving to Arizona? And will she run for president or Arizona's open senate seat?

According to election law, she could run for Senate, even if she just moved here.

A poll done by Public Policy Polling shows Sarah Palin beating the current Republican candidate Jeff Flake.


"It is interesting though that someone on the Republican side, Congressman Jeff Flake, is already being beaten by her in polls," says Johnson

5. I may have to move. Rats.
I love where I am living right now.

Palin, Flake, Pearce, Kyl, and all the new teabaggers.

This beautiful state is simply getting too polluted.

6. I don't know where I'd want to move to tho. I think one day I'll move back to Tucson.
I figure if I'm going to live in this beautiful state that I might as well live in a blue area of it.

Phoenix is just toooo red.

8. She'd never run for the Senate
She'd have to actually be there for votes and committee hearings and all that annoying kind of crap.

And that would mean she couldn't be out on the rubber chicken circuit taking tons of money from the hicks to screech at them for half an hour or so.

I thought the relationship between the two is rather cool, to put it nicely.

10. How did she qualify for a mortgage?
She has no real job.
I thought sub prime mortgages were a thing of the past.
And she has track record of ...quitting on her obligations.

11. Notice that it is North
Scottsdale and not South Scottsdale??? I guess she does not want to go slumming. As a resident of south Scottsdale, I can say that plus several years ago that part of the city was declared a slum to get $$$ from the gov't.

13. I think it's unlikely you'd find many
5 bedroom, 6.5 bath, 8000 SqFt homes on 2 acres in South Scottsdale.
