But she would have no chance in the general election for POTUS. Republicans need to keep that fact in mind for 2012. OTOH, she doesn't need to be subjected to crackpot attempts to "stop" her, either. That's ridiculous.

You could not be more wrong.

You do realize that when Reagan was running against Carter, he was down something like 63% to 37% several months before the election?

Using polls to make your point two years out before she has even announced is ridiculous.

“Using polls to make your point two years out before she has even announced is ridiculous.”

Polls have nothing to do with it; she would have to undergo a major image overhaul, and learn a lot about the world, to have a chance. I think she was great; she helped the party in a big way, and I voted for her as VP. She is unable to handle a hostile press (which dems like BJ Clinton & B. Hussein Obama never have to), and therefore can be a PR disaster.

I don’t know if she’ll ever be on a ballot again, but I think she is a huge asset to the conservative movement. As I’ve said in another post, it is a shame that in all the attacks on her it is overlooked that she was the governor of a state: there are only 50 of them, less than senators or representatives, and that is no easy job for anyone (in any state). She’s already achieved more professionally than most people ever will.

Yes, well we could always hope that the sitting president gets an embassy overrun and then sends a failed mission to save them and then gives up on the attempts.
