Then again, a great rousing speech from Sarah would only serve to raise the spirits of disaffected Conservatives, who would reluctantly turn and support Mittens, to their great chagrin in a year when Ryan is silenced and Romney turns out to be as much of a Big-Government Liberal as we believe him to be, and all those who voted for him want to cut off their voting hands.
Maybe she's relieved she doesn't have to shill for a Liberal and sell out her base for a few minutes of podium time.
She'll have quite an audience of her own at her place down the street, I wager.
