We do have a call-it-like-it-is sort of candidate, in the running now. I think Cain has a lot to offer. Splitting his vote might put Romney in office. Perry is plunging, Bachmann is practically on the sidelines, but Cain is rising well. I think Sarah can retain relevance as one who can call out virtually anyone on policy matters, and as such could be the concience of the Party, if not the Government, and tell it to people in a way they can understand. She doesn't need to be POTUS to have influence, but will be ridiculously attacked at every opportunity if she is.

She has deflected a lot of media energy off the current field. Her considering a run has brought many of the GOP snakes out of the grass, caused people to embrace positions which show their RINO tendencies, and as such has drawn a lot of fire from the Media and Pubbies alike.

The cards are on the table, now, and we know who is holding what. I think she's done a fine job at that, and somehow, for those seeking a 'saviour' instead of a President, that isn't enough.

The bottom line lesson in all this is that America has to save itself. We, the People, the wellspring of all government power, have to stand on our own hind legs and rein in the monstrosity in DC, not just wait for someone to do it for us. That requires us to be active and engaged at every level, from the local government which greedily eyes millions in "federal" money grants, to the COngress and the White House.
