The point was that she does not yet have enough political capital to get elected in a general election, IMO.

I like her, but even good conservatives like my parents balk at the idea of President Palin. That’s because she doesn’t have the clout to overcome the lies the entire Washington press corps touts about her daily.

There is only one way to develop that kind of muscle, and that is to roll one's sleeves up and start swinging.

Work makes muscle and progress. She's a worker and a fighter, and moral midgets like Max Blumenthal and Richard Cohen don't faze her (sic, not "phase" or other misspellings </edit>).
