I wouldn’t rule out the possibility she wins the nomination—perhaps if Obama’s very popular and she doesn’t have strong competition for it—but you’re right about the general election.

Many on here, however, are living in their own little world where Palin is somehow popular with not just conservatives but most Americans.

I have several decades of following and being involved in politics to judge who is the better candidate.

I am ret. from the legal field with the County Attys.
Have been in the real world, not just books.

Neither was Reagan, prior to the Summer of 1980 - he was considered a reactionary who would start World War 3. If fact the Democrats were praying for him to win the nomination...so Carter could walk into a second term.

The media did everything possible to assure Reagan would lose...but they still couldn’t overcome Carter.
