I mean in terms of getting the base motivated, yes, laughable. You gotta think outside the box on Palin, it’s a new game.
Among other factors in her favor is the fact that she is completely underestimated to say the least. As far as not serving out her full term I think we are so fed up with career politicians that it won’t hurt her especially if one is already a supporter. Recent polls back this up. I read a couple days ago (Gallup I think) a poll that had 19% of repsondents strongly supported her for president in 2012. The poll was taken a few days after her resignation.
About a month ago there was a poll (can’t remember but maybe ras or IBD?) that had her at 40% and Obama at 54% head to head in 2012. I may be off a number here or there, I apologoze for that, but wow for a failed Vp candidate that’s pretty solid polling at this point. And with growth and improvement of her articulation those numbers will grow.
In addition to that the slow witted American public may start to wonder why so much venom is spewed her way...could it be fear of an effective candidate?
...although it really didn’t make him a better candidate. When you get right down to it, the GOP nominees since Reagan have been a rather mediocre bunch. Dubya must have done a few things right, but Gore and Kerry were weak opponents.
And you think it's a good thing when a politician runs for a presidential nomination which is a full time job AND at the same time, serves in office as a Senator or Governor which is also a full time job.
Tell me how that is more ethical than what Sarah is doing?
I'll look for your answer.
