I hope she does, I don't think the country has fallen that far to the stupid .. but I been wrong before. Now it is clear Obama is getting blamed for a lot of stuff. Right or wrong he is in charge and this last election showed a lot of upset people. If they run Palin I think Obama will win absolutely (my humble take anyway as an independent). However if the republican's can sell another candidate as intelligent and middle grounded, then the race will be on ... I don't think Palin is the answer for them at all. She will not pick up the independent vote and that is the deal maker right there
