As much as I agree with Palin on her values, she has no chance at POTUS and if she makes a try, she will lose. I just brought up the same issues you raised about the Romney campaign isolating Palin to some older friends on mine 60 - 65 years old men and they agreed with what Romney did to isolate her. If Palin starts to show signs of running for POTUS in 2016, the old white male vote will reject her. IMHO.
Bingo. Palin will NEVER be elected President. I love her and what she stands for, however, she just won’t win. If she wants to help the party she should run for Senate in Alacka and win a seat back for us.
