Those are unwelcome words here in the 'Palin country' of FR, but I've been around in the GOP long enough to know more about the process of gaining the nomination, and election than 95 percent of FReepers. I've been far too close to the process, and involved in too many conventions to even think otherwise at this point.
I wish I could be more optimistic, but there is just no way, for a host of reasons, that Sarah could possibly gain the nomination. But, can we look for Sarah to support the most conservative of other candidates? At this point, and with her performance on Fox News this eve, I'm not even sure I can count on that! Sad to say.
You sound like a concern troll to me, and definitely not a Palin lover. Tell me, what are you afraid of? If she can't win the nomination as you say, then why worry about her running? If she runs according to you she will fail to gain the nomination then the guy you want to win will get it and you have nothing to fear. IMO, you are scared sh**less that she will run and you are hoping she won't because you fear if she does she will carry the nomination.
IF she runs... we will do the heavy lifting and get her nominated... bank on it... you do your part and show up and vote. Then you will not have to force yourself to have any optimism and you can fret your fingernails to the quick.

Agree 100%.
“... nor do I think that if she did, that she would win the nomination.”
And if so, that will be reason number one of about 5,000 why the gop needs to take it’s long overdue place in the dustbin of history.
