So do you think she could do it? What are your thoughts? I think it depends on how things are going and how tired the people are of Obama, or if the people began liking Obama again. Of course, there are probably many, more sophisticated opinions out there. I think it will be an interesting race to say the least.

I think she's been overdoing the publicity. The reality show may not have been the best decision.

I am convinced the only key to this woman's success is that she is oblivious to reality.

I do not think she will beat Obama, or even a candidate from her own party, in the 2012 elections. I do not think she has the aptitude for the position and if she were elected, I think she would strain international relations.

I'm also convinced that McCain would have done much better had he not chosen her as a running mate.

There is no way that she could win the primary, much less the election. Also, I agree that her reality show completely eliminates any credibility she somehow had previously.

Oh, how I wish I could emigrate.

Anything is possible, that is evident by Obama even being president. I hope she cares enough about this country to know she's not qualified to be president at this time and doesn't run tho. She can still be influential outside of political office.

First of all, she would be running in 2012, not 2010. This year's election has passed.

Secondly, it's like I said in the Yahoo! comments section: It's like 1992 but reversed. The Republicans could run an aardvark and win.

In 1991 Bush was thought to be untouchable.

Yes I think just about anybody will be able to beat Obama in 2012.

Actually from what I'm hearing the show may change people's opinions of her that she isn't the monster the mainstream media portrayed her as. Also I'm expecting an increase in tourism to Alaska.

I agree though the way Obama is running things an Aardvark could beat Obama.

Heck right now former President George W. Bush is tied with him and Bush can't even run again. Additionally Bush's popularity is going up while Obama's is going down.

Quite frankly if this keeps up I think Rush Limbaugh with a vp on Ann Coulter could beat Obama in 2012.

Personally, I would like to see Sarah Palin as President, we know at least she would not care for Autism Speaks or any other groups that would want to do away with people on the spectrum through abortion. Also we at least know her negatives from the start.

Also found a fun tidbit.

Sarah Palin released her tax records for the years of 2006 and 2007, showing her income, and how much she paid in income taxes. She has given more to charity compared to Joe Biden's combined totals since 1998.

Btw, Joe Biden was making a lot more money too.

Palin has no chance. Her negatives are way too high. She's unacceptable to the majority, despite the devotion of her particular cult.

Stop drinking the Kool Aid.


In all seriousness if he really existed Jabba the Hutt could beat Obama in 2012.

I think Palin would have no problems beating Obama.

Why would she want to be president when she can continue the easy life of cashing in on book deals, speaking engagements, and trashy reality tv shows.

If you notice, her reality show is probably going to benefit Alaska's economy big time, from tourism.

I think she will run if she doesn't think the other people running have the sense to get the country back on track.

I don't know why she has a reality series and her daughter Bristol is on Dancing With The Stars. Are the Palins trying to get more attention??? IF SHE ever becomes our president I will immigrate to Korea or to another country to get away from her. She just makes me so sick with her anti animal rights. I read a shirt that said "Seal Hunters for Sarah Palin." The woman thinks she's all that and so smart. GET over yourself Sarah. Go stay in Alaska. That will be funny if Bristol's ex becomes the mayor of Wasilla. I would be lol! I am neither Republican nor Democrat so I don't support either party. I have voted for both sides. But if it is Palin vs Obama I am all for Obama again. I think ALL of us on this board can be a much much better president than Sarah. When her name was mentioned and I read more about her issues, I really really can't stand her. :roll:

Too much Alaska cold and northern lights for Sarah. I am sure a Republican could beat Obama but not Sarah.
