If you asked me the question, I would respond the same way. It should not surprise anyone that Palin would keep her options open. And if a person like Palin, believes Obama is wrong for the future of the country, of course that person would believe they can win by making their case. But, your response is diversionary, there are scores of people considering a run for President who have a stronger resume than Palin - not to mention the need to over come a resignation from political office.

That makes her newsworthy and a person of interest in any political discussion....despite her increasingly higher negatives each time she opens her mouth.

Come now, there is more to this. You don't talk about Chuck Baldwin of the Green Party, isn't he is going to run?
I think many of you fear Palin. I think many of you realize that she is a serious contender who can actually pull it off. I think her strategy borders on genius. She is developing a solid foundation of die-hard supporters, like me. There is a level of enthusiasm for her candidacy that I have not had since I was in college. If she can leverage her die-hard core she might just pull it off, although it is a long-shot. but as long as she is in it, I am with her and if she decides to just enjoy life in AK I would still be proud having supported and defended her.

She's been a whiner since her first flubbed interview with Katie Curic at the start of the last campaign.

Look at it this way - if you go around poking a rattle snake with a stick, and the rattle snake bites - who is the victim?

What I find amazing, and what I respect is not where she started but where she is now and how she has grown. The woman is a winner. To go from being a mom from Wasila, to being in the national lime light overnight with no credential or special training, support or coaching is amazing. It takes special character to come back from that interview the way she did. It takes something else special to basically end her political career by resigning as Governor, to still be feared as contender for President. It is truly amazing, and then to think people need to make special proclamations to stop talking about her....???
