Real Clear Politics reports that a film, produced by conservative filmmaker Stephen K. Bannon, will be a "two-hour-long, sweeping epic" movie reintroducing Sarah Palin to the nation is set to premiere in Iowa next month.
It "is poised to serve as a galvanizing prelude to Palin's prospective presidential campaign -- an unconventional reintroduction to the nation that she and her political team have spent months eagerly anticipating, even as Beltway Republicans have largely concluded that she won't run."
"Though she did not have any editorial role in the project, Palin facilitated access for Bannon and his film crew to key Alaskan defenders who were involved with the major achievements of her administration, and the filmmaker spent several weeks in the 49th state gathering archival film and conducting research and interviews for the project. He and his team took extraordinary measures to keep their endeavor secret."

It doesn't really matter much at this point, now that Mitch Daniels is out of the race. I guess Romney would still be a worse candidate than Pawlenty, and Palin's entry weakens Pawlenty, so I'm all for it.
Palin and her fans could just be trying to re-habilitate her image though without her running. It reminds me of how Bush's people tried to do the same after Bush's term expired, trying to make it appear that Bush wasn't a total failure. It'll never work for Palin. As dumb as Bush was, at least he was able to serve two full terms in office. Palin could not even cut it for one full term as governor of a state with enormous natural resources and a small population. She'll never come back.
