As I have said before there are many issues Palin needs to address before being considered a serious threat to Obama.

That said, if she doesn’t run, then what?

The media will rejoice and treat the field as they did in 2008, annoint someone and build them up and destroy them in the fall. Palin has already been destroyed by the MSM so there is no where to go but up.

If she doesn’t run it probably helps Hailey Barbour and Newt Gingrich more than anyone else. The also rans from 2008 are RINOs or nut jobs (Ron Paul}. It does give some oxygen to some long shots Herman Cain, John Bolton or some others who might jump in.

Finally, it frees up a lot of cash and voters with currently no where else to go.

Time as always will tell.

what issues do you think she needs to address ?

I think she is doing a pretty good job right now for a potential candidate.

If Sarah Palin doesn’t run, the nominee will be Mitt Romney.
