Does Sarah Palin want to be President? Or does she just really like attention? We don’t know for sure, but we do know this: The only thing running today was the horde of hungry journalists following Palin’s every move.

Below, Metro’s best shots from the scrum:

We’re no more certain of Palin’s political future than we were this morning, but one thing’s for sure: We hope that she keeps standing next to men in tricorne hats. It’s a good look!
