Palin's inner circle says she will finish out her term and work on 2012...
Her inner circle say the mother-of-five is likely to serve out her final two years as Alaska governor and then focus full time on a bid to become America’s first woman president.

She's already planning it.

3. Good luck with that. I can't imagine Obama dropping the ball badly enough for
the Lightweight from Alaska to put up a decent challenge.

28. She won't be the opponent. Romney and/or Huckabee will crush her in the primary debates
Palin's not going to be able to avoid the media gauntlet if she runs for president and she's going to come off as such a lightweight that only the flat-earthers are going to vote for her to be the nominee.

5. Even the republican party is not that stupid to nominate her
We all know Palin is not very bright... What platform can she run on? She can always wage the cultural war but I am not sure that this will be a winning theme for 2012.

I think it will be between Pawlenty and Jindal.

20. I betcha the big money Republicans that paid for her wardrobe and other expenses

6. Oh Noooooo!
I was truly hoping we'd never have to see/hear/think about her ever again. Maybe Alaskans will smarten up, throw her out of office and send her off to the Aleutians to do Enemy Patrol. Better yet, maybe she'll head up a successful secession movement and won't be qualified to run for president of a country she's no longer a part of. Or perhaps Pastor Muthee will work on driving out another witch.

So many possibilities...so little time!

7. Where in the article does it say what your subject line says?
She may be planning it, but it does not say that in the article.

8. She'll win the Repub nomination if Obama's popularity remains high
The Repubs will willingly sacrifice her in 2012 to a popular Obama and pin their hopes on a less wacky Repub candidate in 2016. Maybe Pawlenty or Ridge will try in 2016.

But in 2012 I can see Palin-Giuliani Repub ticket!!

34. He's a renown skirt chaser
And Sara could get him to take the #2 spot by just wearing a towel and standing in front of him.

11. That should give her enough time to get her medical records fixed up..
Remove any pesky references to that Tubal Ligation she had after child #4.

24. And for her to be investigated more thoroughly. She only had a small window of opportunity.
Now it is lost for her.

Republicans should run her. There are only so many people she can appeal to.

19. She hasn't any shelf life left.
And we haven't even begun to hear the full stories from the McCain camp about the whack-job, rogue diva. She'll end up seriously damaged goods, even in Alaska. I'd love the idea of her running against President Obama in '12, but it isn't going to happen.

21. We'll see what the party in general does to her
I think it's just as likely that she'll be the focus of the blame for McCain's loss and her career will be marginalized from here on out. Or maybe she'll be like a cockroach and survive that, who knows.

30. Stevens won in Alaska
So with him about to go to prison, how easy would it be for Palin to resign and be appointed to the Senate by her successor?

Folks, I'll bet money she's going to do just that. Look out folks, the Caribou Barbie ain't done yet......:banghead:

32. AWESOME!!! LET'S HELP HER:
Let's help our Palin Loving Republican Friends out! PLEASE FOLLOW THESE STEPS:

1. Thank Rush Limbaugh for the idea currently known as "Operation Chaos"
2. Re-Name Operation Chaos to "Operation Princess" 2012
3. As Obama runs un-opposed in 2012, Dems cross over and vote for Sarah Palin in the '12 Primary
4. Dems sit back and watch heads explode as Fiscal Cons, Social Cons and Neo Cons tear each other apart when more "qualified" candidates like Mitt, Mike, Jeb, Newt, Colin, etc. don't win nomination
5. Enjoy popcorn during the three debates between Palin & Obama in October, 2012.
6. Watch Obama beat Palin by 70% - 30% on 11/06/12
