I disagree.
Last go around Palin had it all. What happened was however, at the very last minute, she decided against running.
She did not run. The problem was a whole huge amount of everyone, everywhere had by the time she stood down, already come out for her, and were getting psyched up for her presidency.
I know. I was one of those people.
I remember exactly when I heard she had decided she was not going to run. Exactly where I was. I remember that even now.
She did not run. But she (deeply) disappointed a whole huge lot of us.
The thing is, she was never in the race last time. But that does not change the fact a whole huge lot of people felt like she did.
I believe she has a HUGE bunch of people who will vote for her, if she runs. However a lot of those are people she disappointed last go around.
I do not hold a grudge, but I know there are people right here, who to this day, think Palin let them down.
That is the issue Palin will have to address if she runs.
She can be enormously popular. She can win, and she can be a great President.
The key if she runs, will be to reach the people she turned off last go around.
She was never actually in the race, but quite a lot of people need to be reminded she never actually entered the race last time, in order to ask for their vote this go-around.
However I believe she is the best candidate.
The best.
I hear you. You are the base. She energizes you. But her opportunity came and she chose to walk away. She will not recover from that as far as being a viable candidate. Her only path is if no Non RINO enters and that ain’t gonna happen.
Disappointed with Palin pulling out, but...
She probably realized by being front runner and with all the left machinery gearing up on destroying her, grizzly mama chose to back off and wait for next time, when she gains more popularity and support.
I think her role is best to run as VP, be vocal in bringing all the Kenyan’s crime, and get experienced for next run for Potus.
The best team I think is WALKER + PALIN.
Experience and accomplishments + ferocious grizzly mama.
GO SARAH!
With a “land rush” of candidates looking to enter 2016 R race, she better make up her mind pretty quick. It’s going to require huge money, and there will be intense competition for it.
I was another disappointed conservative when Palin pulled out her football. The 4th of July video had clinched the deal she was running... Then she cheesily uses her family as the reason she decides not to run. The same family she had a month earlier.
She’s a phony and an attention hog even while she is articulate (in writing moreso) on all the important issues. She’s all about herself. I’ll forgive her that and I’d still vote for her for office but it’s not the disappointed people on the right that keep her from the presidency.
3/4 of Americans don’t just THINK she’s dumb. They are SURE she is dumb. They are wrong; she isn’t. But the media successfully Palinized her and I’m afraid palinization is permanent.
The thing is, she was never in the race last time.

Do you see evidence of her being in the race this time? Time is getting short
for putting all the pieces together to be an effective candidate.
