I don't like citing polls - but this is useful for a couple of points.

CNN Poll for Leading GOP 2012
Trump 19%
Huckabee 19%
Palin 12%
Romney 11%
Gingrich 11%
Paul 7%
Bachmann 5%

1. As much as many want to discredit Palin - she received 12% even though she is publicly off of the radar for the most part. I do think although she is not your polished typical politician, she most connects with mid and little America and she is not afraid of the left and she loved the country (i.e. her allegiance will not be a question like the current president).

2. I am not sold on Trump. Hopefully he will not go the independent route. Basically he has business savvy and he's been pushing hard on the birth issue.

3. The rest do nothing for me right now.

You know how we can put that pretty face yet empty head out of the public eye?

Stop talking about her.

I doubt she will run, the nuttier one will (Bachmann) and you will likely see a bump in her Primary numbers once Palin is out of the picture.

Talking Palin is still relevelant

Still?

That implies that she attained relevance at some point.

She has zero chance and I think she will run! Palin doesn't recognize her own shortcomings. She will reload instead of retreat.

I agree. The starting question should be; does the earth rotate around the sun. That would eliminate a few of them
