Not too long ago, I mention that McCain was in just as bad of shape as some Democrats, either tied or trailing in the polls. But guess what? He announces that Sarah Palin will campaign for him and all of a sudden he's looking a lot better to voters in Arizona.

Election 2010: Arizona Republican Primary for Senate - Rasmussen Reports™

Perhaps Palin should run for President and ask McCain to be her running mate...but considering McCain's age, only if Pelosi is no longer Speaker of the House and third in line for the Presidency.

Palin shouldnt run for president not against Obama. If Palin wants to be president she needs to be a senator for a full term and then run. Thats my opinion.

Palin has no trouble getting republican support that McCain cant. Palin cant get the independent support that would be needed for her to become president

That puts a Palin run for the Presidency at 2024, should she win Begich's seat in '16 and completes that term.

Running for prez from senate experience is extremely difficult. In a weird way, it was Obama's total lack of senate experience that permitted him to be successful.

As the resident sociopath, I'm actually rooting for her.

Sure, we can justify one genuinely unintelligent White House winner as he was born into an incredibly odd situation. But a corn-fed know-nothing? Now that would be an All American Accomplishment.


Palin Beck 2012. Fight the leeeebrals with common sense, ya'll!

Sarah Palin is a all talk-no action.

She and Obama would be like twins.
