I would like to see her run because her actions and comments self write some of the best comic relief I have ever seen.

I don't think she'll even be around in 2012.

I hope she does run. This could be the final nail in the GOP thus giving the Libertarian or Constitution Party an opening to suck in fiscal conservatives, thus leaving the fucktards and Christian Taliban politically isolated to the racist states.

I wonder if Palin can be talked into a 2012 run at this point. I doubt she would win the primaries but it would eat support and funds away from the eventual winner thus making an Obama reelection even easier.

She'll go back up to her socialist state of Alaska and try to get more handouts from the federal government to give to her people.

That is what she will do. If she can't do that, they won't reelect her.

Alaska, the free-hand out State. That is what we've learned from Palin running for national office.

Here are more knives coming out for Palin - forget 2012, she won't last the end of the year.

A majority of Republicans and conservative talking heads praised Palin and kept saying how great she was...BECAUSE THEY HAD TO! McCain made a boneheaded choice by selecting her only a few weeks before the election. Die-hard conservatives weren't going to come out and admit she was a HUGE liability and was costing them any chance at winning the election. They had to try to BS and make lemonade from lemons.

She may try to run in 2012, and there will be some Christian rednecks who will still think she is wonderful. But there is NO WAY she will garner enough support to even compete in the primaries.

I have more than a few conservative friends who surely didn't want Obama to win, but they have admitted they are a bit relieved they don't have to deal with her as the VP and the "future of the party." My friends in South Carolina are die-hard conservatives, but even they were happy to see Bush era coming to a close (although not with a Dem win). They don't want another bumbling caricature representing their party. I expect you will see a very articulate, intelligent candidate nominated for the GOP in 2012, someone along the lines of a Bill Frist (although I'm pretty sure he is not interested).

Look, Palin didn't really choose herself. The GOP chose her. McCain was desperate to shore up the Republican right wing base to win, and the RNC, I am guessing, recommended Palin. I don't see why they couldn't have picked someone, though, who was Evangelical but knows about global affairs and has some visibility on the federal level. That's not Palin's mistake. We are not really sure she didn't know Africa's a continent. She could have just said something stupid, because she was on the camera and she's very stressed. The GOP should have picked an articulate person who knows about global affairs. I think what happened to Palin was unfortunate and unfair to her. Also those who blamed her for the way she looked are being very unfair and cruel. The woman did her best. She is a governor and she knows how to govern Alaska, I expect. They made the same mistake in choosing Palin that they did when they chose George Bush. Is that Palin's fault? No. I don't think she's stupid or anything like that, and I think it's wrong to say that.
