1. I don't think Santorum can win a primary in this field with or without Palin running.
But Palin is dangerous in this field. Her unfavorables are so bad that she will easily lose to Obama. But she will drive up the madness and hate amongst her supporters in the mean time.

3. they won't--they will embrace it and Obama will win 59-41 and the house will flip
to the dems and the dems will hold the senate.

4. Same way they did with Bush
Edited on Sat May-28-11 03:39 PM by vanboggie
Kind of scary that the Rethug-owned cheat machines are still in use and Rovian dirty tricks are still being practiced. In fact they have escalated with the Voter ID laws they're cramming through.

Don't bet on the fact that another total lunatic puppet won't steal the White House again.

6. The teabaggers are in charge now. Bachmann or Palin could win their nomination.

7. I don't know, but if it does come to pass I think Obama can already start
planning for a second term.

8. The MSM will glamorize them and paint them in glowing colors
they will ignore all of their faults and failures just like they did for Junior. Our biggest hope is that Repug governers continue their attacks on the common man....and the Palins continue to support what they are doing.

9. They might not have to...
I am not sure they would have to if in fact there are numerous more rural voters after the funding of the Tea Party scraped the bottom of the voting barrel.

10. Palin Question?
Couric: Have you ever been involved in any negotiations, for example, with the Russians?

Palin: We have trade missions back and forth, we do. It's very important when you consider even national-security issues with Russia. As Putin rears his head and comes into the air space of the United States of America, where do they go? It's Alaska. It's just right over the border. It is from Alaska that we send those out to make sure that an eye is being kept on this very powerful nation, Russia, because they are right next to, they are right next to our state.

Now that she`ll be living in Arizona, she could probably say the same things about Mexico and drug runners. Except the part about being executive of the state.
