Is applying for Swiss citizenship an option? Its a bit cold, but I like their gun laws and the beer's good. :P Seriously, It won't be Palin for a lot of reasons, her own rational self interest chief among them.

Nothing to with my opinion of her, just facts. The GOP wants a win. They're not going to vote for a lightning rod with baggage. She's a great cheerleader and motivator for a certain wing of the party. She gets crowds and makes a lot of friends and money doing it. Why would she throw that away on a losing bid? She will never get the independent vote, she knows that as well as anybody. But if she rides in on her Harley she can raise a bunch of cash for GOP candidates and keep her brand and influence alive.

Can't play because you left out the other parties.

Who will be the Libertarian, the Green, and the toga party candidates?

While Palin would not be my first choice, she is definitely a better choice than the current occupant of 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.

I can't think of many names I wouldn't vote for other than Obama.

I'd really like to see a 3rd party candidate really have a chance, but until that day Republican will most always be the lesser of two evils in my book—at least on a national and state level. I realize that there are other issues besides 2A, but recent legislation in Florida was pretty much party lines.

As far as Palin, I've never been too "for" or "against" her—but I can't think of anything I don't like about her. The fact that so many lefties trash her kind of makes me like her.  :P

She might not win but neither did the last person I voted for....

Obama can move to Switzerland with FQ, they'll make a lovely couple...even if he's re-elected, he's not doing any good in D.C.  He could leave the country for four years and do less damage.  Pay the man double to stay in Europe for the rest of his life and take his dog with him.  Not the K9 one, the other one with the big butt and the underbite!

Yes she is a lightning rod, because she gets things done. The left hates her, because she indiscriminately goes after the corrupt. Regardless of party, and puts them in jail. That would mean the end of the dems. And as far as baggage is concerned, name me one candidate that doesn't have baggage. Hell even Reagan was on his second marriage!!! I'm sorry, but how many times have we discussed that your personal life does not necessarily affect how you do your job. And I know you are going to bring up the fact that she resigned as Gov. But could you work with a new bogus indictment brought against you every other day. Personally I think she made the right choice for her constituents.

My choice would be COL. West. Oh but wait! He has baggage too!
