I don't think she's electable as President.
I won't vote for her in the primary, but I don't think she's going to win the nom anyway.
I know she has an ardent following, but I think time will tell if that can translate to real primary victories. Primaries are rough and bloody, occasionally worse than the general election.

The media gave her the "Quayle" treatment in '08, with the crap about who bought her wardrobe, etc., so it'd be even worse if she were at the top of the ticked in '12.
However, I'd bet that the press would keep their powder dry during the primaries, so they could blow her out of the water during the general.

And how much time and money they are going to devote to her.

She's not electable for a number of reasons, including being Quayled on SNL, the Couric interview, abrupt resignation, only two years of experience as governor, lack of specifics in issues and general lack of intellectual curiosity. She is the quintessential candidate for those preferring style over substance and those seeking and seeing what in reality is not there.
But, I will give her one thing. Her followers have a cultist, messianic passion for her, similar to the followers of Al Queda. But, her zealots will not overcome her high negatives she has with the general population.

I don't think she's electable as President. Why not and whom would you vote for in the "nom?"
