She's not really taking them on. She's saying her two cents, then screaming "MAINSTREAM LIBERAL MEDIA!" every time someone criticizes her.

Thin skinned? You are kidding, right? Just because she smileling doesn't mean, she won't, figuratively, gut you alive.

See above. Getting out of the governership to "protect her family" or whatever is a lame excuse for running away from the critics.

You do know who won, don't you?

Of course. Reagan won 49 states to 1. I'm sure Palin would win the dyed-in-the-wool red states, but I can't imagine her swinging states like Indiana, Ohio or Pennsylvania (as 3 examples) back her way.
She could hide behind McCain as the VP nominee and avoid the tough questions, but if she's seriously considering running for President, she'll need every second between now and then to even raise her level of discourse to "acceptable", much less "extraordinary".
Call me naive, but I expect excellence from my president. There's nothing excellent about Sarah Palin. Nothing.
