My theory:
Palin is already running. She's using Donald as a surrogate campaign.
Once he's nominated, he's going to graciously turn over all his delegates and support over to her.
So Palin avoids the GOPe primaries, which would have been stacked against her, she avoids the leftist media and catches them off-guard, she avoids the Chamber of Commere goons, and she can just focus on running in a general election and open a can on Hillary.
