Sarah Palin open to running in 2012
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/09/17/sarah-palin-2012-presidential-run-give-it-a-shot_n_721717.html

I like it. If she's not a sociopath, she demonstrates sociopathic tendecies. Her problem is that despite thinking big her mind is small. She might actually convince herself that she could win. And I think by 2012 even the tepid insider beltway dems will have learned from the left, how to attack her and her ilk efficiously.

Requirement for the office of President: understanding how the Constitution works.

9. Yes and yes
Because unlike the Corporate Republicans, they reject your reality and replace it with their own.

17. I agree
I wish we lived in a country where a Palin run would be a sure loss, because that is a country grounded in reality. Unfortunately we live in a country where a sizeable proportion of the people believe Jesus had a pet dinosaur.

11. I'm afraid this country has enough idiots to elect her.
I've said all along that she's a serious threat. Just because we Liberals can make intellectual choices doesn't mean anyone else can or will. I don't want her to run because she just might win. :puke:

13. Must be running low on $$$$$$
Edited on Fri Sep-17-10 07:54 PM by Proud Liberal Dem
Why else would she need to say something like this? She's NOT running IMHO. She just needs some more publicity (as if the corporate mediawhores don't give her enough as it is).

18. You're making an assumption that those people
would give this choice any serious thought. If they did, they'd see what a danger she would be in the WH. They don't care if she's a quitter or not. They like her notorioty and will run anyone to beat Obama of they think the crazies can be scared into voting. Look for the Religious Right to become involved, and any and all Teabaggers, not to mention all the racists and/or rednecks out there and you've got the fixin's for a Palin takeover. They'll be taking America back alright...all the way back to before we had entitlement to our civil rights. It's just too scary to ignore.

19. She's clearly a supporter of the "withdrawal" method of Politics
:evilgrin:

She'd be out of the race within weeks(days?) of announcing.
