Umm, because our best candidate, Gov. Sarah Palin, has been attacked incessantly by the jourbalists, academia, nutroots, cable TV, Hollywood, the White House, DNC, RNC, RINO central and elites since 2008?
Sarah also hasn't announced yet. That is the BIGGEST reason that Trump is in the lead.
When she announces, there's going to be an earthquake from coast to coast, and Trump will suddenly become yesterday's news. She'll show him up for the carney huckster he is, and she will bury him. Of this, I have no doubt.
She has the knowledge and experience in her head to run this country but she cannot transport that knowledge into words she does not have the vocabulary to articulate herself in the debates. Obama would verbally demolish her.
Another problem Sarah Palin has is that she supported the Libya war which is one of our major issues we have Obama pinned on. For Sarah Palin to critique Obama on Libya in a debate would be like Romney criticizing Obama for Obamacare.
You betcha !
