She would be a distraction since she's been pretty well trashed by the RIM. ..... laweeks

What makes you think that any other Conservative candidate would avoid the same trashing? ...... Virginia Ridgerunner

The question is not to "avoid" the trashing. The trashing will come and cannot be avoided. The point is to DEFEAT the trashing. Some candidates are strong enough to defeat it and others are defeated by it.

As a result of a solid record of almost 11 years as Governor of the second largest and most economically successful state in the Union, one conservative candidate has not only survived the media attempts at trashing, he has flourished after a month of trashing.

Poll: Perry Pulls Ahead of Obama .... Rasmussen’s poll of likely voters now shows Rick Perry leading Barack Obama by 3 percentage points (44 to 41 percent)

By contrast, some candidates have been utterly defeated by the trashing.

Obama 50%, Palin 33%.... August 22, 2011 .... If Election Day was right now, President Obama would defeat the former Alaska governor 50% to 33%, according to a new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey .... women prefer the incumbent by a sizable 56% to 29% margin.

Truthfully the press has not even BEGUN to trash candidates. But it’s coming.

I see you're doing data (polls). Here are some more:

41% of GOP primary voters and two thirds of all registered voters say there is no chance they would vote for Sarah Palin (Pew - Aug, 2011)

The word that comes to mind is "REALITY."

Psycho-Freep conflict of interest disclaimer:

"Just for the record, I happen to be one of those “Blood Sucking Takers who helped pioneer the Prudhoe Bay Oilfield for Atlantic Richfield and Sohio. We braved 130 Below zero wind chills for decades, to produce that badly needed oil for America... Palin’s ignorant, punitive and Populist attack on that established effort, nearly put a halt to everything good we worked so hard to create. "

Your days are numbered, bub:
