I actually think to some extent that Sarah Palin running in the primaries could help someone like Mitt Romney. If people really feel she can’t win the general election because she resigned from the governorship, they might be more forgiving of another candidate’s weaknesses—just to get someone, anyone else to win the nomination.

That said, I think Romney has a big hill to climb as a result of all the criticism of Romneycare being like Obamacare.

Lately I get the impression that Palin probably won’t run, but could end up being a “kingmaker” by throwing her support behind someone else. (Huckabee maybe?)

Hi, Newbie.

First, Gov. Palin running helps Gov. Palin.

Second, nothing could help Romney except if he apologizes
for what he has done.

Finally, RomneyCARE = ObamaCARE = FASCISM

Really, it beats me how you and others like you arrive at that conclusion given everything that Governor Palin has said and done.

Hey, it's your perception, if you want to keep your head in the sand, more power to you!

No, RomneyCare is just like Obamacare for the following reasons:

1. It forces, by law and under penalty of fine, everyone to get insurance, even if they don't want it.
2. Is subsidizes those "who can't afford it" Health Insurance with Tax-Payer money.

That's socialism, bubba!

So stop soft-peddaling the issue.
