“Personally I think she would be crazy to run, she is more dangerous to the democrats doing what she is doing now!”
She’s making a truckload of money doing it, too. Becoming president would be a poor career choice – her pay would be slashed to a fraction of what she’s earning now and she’d actually have to answer questions about the things that she says and does. Heck – bill gates would probably be an incredible president. He’d run things brilliantly. He’d be mad to apply, though.
And I’m not sure that palin really has the mainstream GOP’s interests at heart anyway. I reckon she’d be very divisive within her own party, and probably thus guarantee a democratic win. So sure – please, sarah, step up and join the race 
She’d better do it soon, though. My impression is that to succeed as a woman in conservative US politics (as a candidate or a pundit), you have to be young and/or attractive (go on – find me some counterexamples). If palin waits a few years, puts on a few pounds and starts to show some wrinkles, you lot will drop her like a hot rock. Wait and see
I really am astonished that you guys can’t think of a single republican who’s better qualified for the job. Look around at the republican state governors (which is where the next candidate will probably come from anyway). Surely there’s some talent there? There’s nobody in congress who could step up? Nobody? Think about what that says.
