A governor of a hick state with one fourth the population of the borough of Brooklyn. A state that relies heavily on govt. subsidies and oil money.

If Palin gets the nomination Hilary could literally win every electoral vote.

Although, a weak GOP candidate could make things interesting for the Democratic primaries, I want someone to challenge Hillary for the nomination.

Because, ONCE AGAIN, I'll probably be forced to choose the lackluster Democrat over the bat**** crazy Republican.

Funny people say that fighting the ethics charges would have bankrupted her, when there was a fund set up for her defense.

But keep up the fanaticism, it's cute.

That is the sad part about recent presidential elections and I don't expect the Republicans to put forth a decent candidate any time soon.

Why do you slam Alaska as a hick state? Does it offend you? You do know Alaska is one of the most vital states that pertains to American's national interests and national security. And what is wrong with Alaskans having oil money?

Baloney! He was an US rep for two years and an Illinois rep for 8 years.

There's nothing wrong with it. But you can't claim what a great job dear Sarah did when the state's success is derived entirely from something she has no hand in.

Don't get me wrong, I love me some Glitch, er, Sarah. She's awesome sauce! Can't wait for her to run! But I'm just sayin'.

Oh GOP, the likely homecoming queen isn't going to sleep with you because you promised her your vote.

They really have no rising stars.

There's Rand Paul with his fantasy budget, and maybe Bobby Jindal.

I'm annoyed with the DNC that Hillary seems to be the foregone conclusion, since she's the safe win. I'd like to see Wendy Davis or Bernie Sanders shake things up in the primary. Maybe let some of those on the left understand that change is possible, but not with Hillary Clinton.

She couldn't use that defense fund. At first her lawyer advised her she could and she was already over a half million dollars in personal debt. So yea fighting the ethics charges did put her in jeopardy of being bankrupt.
