PALIN/WEST??? Naaaaaaah, they’d scare the hell out of the NYT staff. Actually, if they were ever nominated, I’d say give it your best shot, maybe the idiots will open their eyes for a change. No mater who the Republicans put up, its going to be a dirty up hill battle and the good ole boy candidates won’t fight back. I believe the Palin West combo would, and that would be shear terror for the Libs who control the Democrat party. A firebrand like Palin vs our 1st queen? What would you give to see that? The Republicans don’t have anyone to match the guts of Palin and West, except for Cruz. The Public wants to see fighters up there, they want a winner, not another Republican schlep, because real Americans love winners!
