She can fire up the base but can't win?
Where do you think Republicans get their support from? Enlightened, crumpet eating moderates?
Republicans need independents to win.
Independents do not like Palin.
The country is split 3 ways at 33/33/33 R/D/I now.
But the main reason I say this is I just don’t think Palin can beat 0bama in a debate.
She couldn’t even beat hairbrained Joe Biden.
She does not inspire conficence in her intellectual ability for too many people who vote on the person rather than the party.
