None of which means she has the necessary support.
If she can’t get elected in Alaska, she is worn out old news as a candidate
You're completely delusional.
When Palin had her bus tour of historic American sites 2 summers ago, she drove the media nuts and there were hordes of people waiting for her.
I remember when her first book was released and the wait was literally days. People camping out waiting for her. They won't do that for a Christie or a Jeb Bush.
All Palin has to do is announce, and the grassroots will respond instantly.
