I am saying the people I know and talk politics with just think she is SO over that she no longer is of any interest to them. The door is shut and she is the one who shut it. She is only on a few peoples minds anymore.
I get that. That's why I said it depends on who you surround yourself with. I know many in the Republican Party of San Diego and the OCGOP (Republican Party of Orange County) who believe there is no better representative of the conservative cause than Sarah Palin. I don't doubt there are many who disagree but within the crowd I surround myself with they love her.
What part of Austin do you live in?
I suspect she’ll be out campaigning for the nominee and for Congressional candidates, collecting chits. She might take a Cabinet job.
In a few years, once the kids are out of the house (mostly), the picture may look different to her.
