I still hope she primaries John McCain next year.
Well, success in that and in the general would give her a chance to prove herself as a Senator. If she were to do as well in the Senate as she did as mayor and then governor (and at building a media empire), I’ll be in the Palin ‘20 or Palin ‘24 camp. You can check FR’s archives and find I’d advocated her for the VP spot before McCain picked her, but even so, I don’t think from where she is now that Palin ‘16 is a good idea, for her, the conservative movement, the GOP or the country.
