News flash: Sarah Palin was in town Monday. You didn’t know that? I didn’t know it until the next day. Turns out, nobody knew it. Not the police. Not GOP insiders. Not the high-dollar money folks. Not the Vitae Foundation that brought her to Kansas City last September. Nobody. “Holy cow!” said Annie Presley, a fundraising consultant. “How did we not know about that?” Because the Palin crowd never whispered a word about her plans — and they still won’t talk. Does that strike you as a little too mysterious for a woman eyeballing a White House run? “Mysterious” goes a long way with Palin these days. I did see her off in the distance eight days ago at the Iowa State Fair, where she was coyly stating — for the umpteenth time — that she wasn’t a candidate for president, although she hadn’t ruled it out. Not a candidate. Not running. But flirting, flirting, flirting with the crowds and reporters and the idea of it all. And she did all this while a huge crowd of fairgoers was lining up to see Michele Bachmann, who is supplanting Palin as this cycle’s GOP sensation. Still, lots of media time and handshakes in Iowa. But nothing here in Kansas City. It’s a mystery all right. My source on her Monday appearance here is none other than Palin herself. She wrote on her SarahPAC Facebook page — that’s her big political action committee — that she spent a “very moving day” in Kansas City, “where it’s easy to remember what really matters, because here we have the National World War I Museum.” But no one at the museum saw her inside. And word would have spread like wildfire if they had, a spokesman said. And no one I could find at the hotel — and I talked to doormen and front-desk types — saw her. You know at this point in time I would not put ANYTHING past her. But even for her, this is bizarre!And by the way did ANYBODY see Piper with Palin while she was in Iowa?Why is it that NOTHING with Sarah Palin is ever what it appears?
