Folks,
If Sarah Palin is serious to get elected beyond the conservative base, she needs to go and articulate some policies. If she is serious about running, Sarah Palin should go and destroy people like Katie Couric. Yes she can spend her time with conservative media people but now and then she also needs to get to 2 or 3 mainstream media people and reach out to the broader independents. She also better have a good explanation for leaving the governor’s mansion within 2 years. Bottom line, let us face it that, she has to redefine little bit of her image with independents.
If Sarah does not run, I think, Huckabee can be a formidable candidate. He has lot of executive experience, his negatives are very low and he can articulate the policies very well. In addition to all the southern states, he can get Ohio, Pennsylvania and even michigan.
