No way Palin takes the second spot two tickets in a row. I see lots of people thinking that somehow she would just settle for number two. If Sarah is in it, she's all-in.
I think the same way. However, if we get another RINO and the right person asks her to come on as # 2 or we stand a 50/50 chance of losing, my guess is she will come on. But thats a lot of speculation at this point.
I totally agree! Cain/Palin is not going to make any gains.

If I was the guy who was the deciding vote on who would become President on January 20, 2013, I’d pick Palin and would not even bat an eye doing it. I think she would be the right person at the right time in the right place in history.
But I also hew to the saying made popular by Reagan “it’s amazing how much you can get done as long as you don’t care who gets the credit.”
The person isn’t as important as the policies and the philosophical/moral foundation from which those policies arise, IMHO.
What I like about Palin is that she’s already taken the left’s best shot—and she’s taken it over and over again and she’s still standing. I think her heart is true—one of the rarest things you can ever say about anyone in American politics.
What I like about Cain is that I sense he has that same sort of strength and truth in him—I don’t think you beat cancer without the experience setting all of your priorities in order.
But, after reading all of the comments here, I think it’s getting close to the time to go all-in for somebody, and really start putting the pedal to the floor for the 2012 election.
And the somebody I’d really prefer to go all-in for isn’t yet all-in herself.
So, what to do?
