Poll question: Odds Sarah Palin will be the Republican Nominee in 2012
A week ago I would have put them at somewhere between 40 and 60% if she decides to run (which I think she would have). The Tea Party Base loves her and believes that she is a real Republican as opposed to a Washington Republican or a RINO. A contest between her and Romney? I'd have to give her the edge. Huckabee would complicate things if he got in.

Now? After that bullshit response to the shooting? I think she's done (0 to 10%). What do you think?

1. Intrade has her at 12%
The traders on intrade have lowered the odds of her becoming the 2012 GOP nominee from about 18% to 12% over the last week.

3. I hope it's a lock.
I mean come on. You guys seriously wouldn't want to see her squirm her way through every interview that asks her about the target map? I would relish it if she got the nomination.

4. Michigan is an open primary state, I plan on voting for her as a repayment for "Project Chaos"
They screwed with our primary so I have every intention of screwing with their's



But I still have her in the 10-40 range, although I really have her in the 10-20 range

5. She may not run; but if she does, well turnabout is fair play
Then again, maybe Obama will face a primary challanger. Unlikely though.
