and that “spotlight” is exactly why she will not run. If she gets to run in the general, its bad for her, cause who remembers a “Presidential Candidate”? And if she runs and doesn’t even get the nomination, that is even worse cause then no one will pay her to listen her talk.

Exactly. She won't run unless she thinks it's a slam dunk. Hate to break it to people, it's not. Despite what the leftist mediots will continue to spout, the GOP field isn't as weak as they want it to be AND Zero isn't nearly as strong a President as they hope him to be.

Hmmmm, lots of hopium going on, eh?

Exactly!! Could not have said it better. The one thing Palin knows for sure is that if she were to get in and not get the nomination or even worse get pummeled in the primaries her career at Fox and as a speaker is over for good.

She is not going to take the chance. She has two resignations in her past she would need to explain away. Not going to happen. If she got in it would get ugly for her real quick. She’s smart enough to not get involved.

I actually agree. As it is, there is a sizable group of people who believe she's the second coming of Reagan. No candidate can live up to those expectations if they are challenged in the context of an election. There's more notoriety and money in not running, and less long-term risk.
