Sarah would make an AWESOME Secretary of Energy or Secretary of the Interior -- 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.

“But she would have no chance in the general election for POTUS...”

And you already know who does?

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.

But she would have no chance in the general election for POTUS.

Here's proof for you about how wrong you are!

Harris Poll January 29, 1980:

CARTER NOW FAR AHEAD OF BOTH REAGAN AND BUSH

"President Carter so dominates the American political scene now that his margin over Ronald Reagan in a post-Iowa trial heat has risen to an overwhelming 65-31 percent."

Also, Time magazine ran a big story in March of that year basically saying Reagan was unelectable. Gallup had a poll in that time frame with Reagan down 25 points.

Thats a bunch of BS.

I am sick and tired of those who say she is unelectable. You turncoats need to look at her for who she is and what she stands for.

Look at the real Sarah. not some media stereotype. the real Sarah Palin can win.

You know Ex, they said that very same thing about Reagan. The American voter is a fickle thing -- you really never know which way they will jump.

7. Is only in it for the money and publicity (publicity whore).

8. Only good for electing “red-state fringers”.

9. Okay, okay, she’s good at raising money...as if that means anything. (eyes rolling)

10. Okay, okay, okay...she can can hang with us so long as she stays in the back of the bus. Maybe we can pigeon hole her as RNC chief.

11. Oh friggen kay, she can have a cabinet post, but shut her up.
