I respectfully disagree with your conclusion. We have never had and will likely never have a president who does not have critics. Hopefully, we will never have another, like Obama, who is held out as above criticism.
Governor Palin appears to be a tough individual and well able to handle her critics. I like that about her and feel that if she were to be elected, she would be better able to deal with the difficulties inherent in the job than if she had been treated as a delicate flower. Actually, she probably has more to fear from the unrealistic expectations of her most ardent supporters than she does from the slings and arrows of her severest detractors.
It is early in the process. Keep in mind, when the election is over, we will have elected a president, not a saint.

I do hope my assessment is incorrect.
However, can you imagine the entrenched liberal heads exploding in the CIA, State Department, Justice, the various federal bureaucracies, the media, etc, etc, if Governor Palin became president. They would go after her with long knives, hammers, and tongs, with gusto, during her first 4 years, even more than they went after GWB.
Their behavior towards GWB could be viewed as nothing more than a warm-up, with respect to Pres Palin.
Therefore, her first order of business should be to clean up (i.e. de-louse) all of these agencies of fellow travellers, traitors, communists, socialists, and the like.
