I am a LONG-TIME supporter of Sarah Palin, I was pushing for her to be McCain's running mate months before most FReepers even knew who she was (and I have the posts to prove it).
That being said, I don't think she can stand up to the assault that would come the second she announced. Sarah's best chance was 2012, none of us know the real reason she decided not to run, but SHE DOES and it's probably still there.
I have ALWAYS understood that conservatives do best when we run "unelectable" candidates like Ronald Reagan. However, I now understand that in addition to being unelectable they must ALSO BE UNFLAPPABLE like Reagan was.

Ted Cruz stands about as much a chance of being elected President as Dave Brat had of beating Eric Cantor in the primary.

I listened to Palin on some show about 2 weeks ago, and she was asked about a run for the presidency. She wouldn’t answer the question, but it was really obvious to me that she did not want to run. Everything in her demeanor, her body language, and her verbal dodging said she doesn’t want to do it.
I think she knows they’ll drag her family through hell again.
