Not necessarily: but all the prospective candidates THINK they can: so they are all fighting for position.
Thanks for the compliment...btw. It's a labor of love, not money.
Cheers!
Karl Rove is s pretty sophisticated operator, and he is likely behind one of the memes that she is declaring today / later this week / this weekend / next week FOR SURE. Get the rumor going and make Sarah deny it: if she denies it enough, it looks like she is denying running at all; then if she does run hold those statements against her. And if she doesnt deny it, then "Goody, shes not running." And in the meantime Rove can make his own do-it-yourself Palin fatigue by proxy, without her doing anything, by starting his own destructive rumors.
Let's hope Rove has not only met his match in Palin, but his superior!
