If he doesn’t run in ’12 it will be because he’s arranged his promotion to President of the World at the UN.

Plus, I simply don’t believe a generic conservative white man will win in ’12. Contrary to some of the posts on this thread, I’d be willing to bet $100 that not only will Obama not run in ’12, he will likely be impeached, forced to resign in disgrace, or have to make a plea bargain a la Boy Clinton to keep from doing time upon relinguishing the presidency.

His overweening arrogance will eventually turn off all but the most ardent supporters, his hubristic naivete will cause a serious international breach/incident and/or his sense of entitlelment, of being above the law will cause him to ignore civil or criminal statutes meant for lesser men and thereby become legally entangled. Of course, if he institutes martial law on some pretext or another all bets are off…

The upside is that America will finally be cured of its’ lingering case of middle-class-white guilt. That day can’t come soon enough…

You can buy however much you want to of her whining about her legal bills. I’ve faced charges under Alaska’s Ethics Act, including a threat from her Administration, and I’ve never spent a dime defending myself. The only one where she really needed private counsel was the one on her “private” emails. Her Administration closed ranks to help her and to do the old government ploy of just dragging it out so the complainants run out of money and the public loses interest. But if it ever does go to the AKSC, she’ll lose adn from what I hear some of those emails might change some perceptions of her.

Anyway, now that she’s no longer governor of my State, I’m quite happy to have her out poking the Democrats in the eye Nationally, and will readily admit that she’s good at that, running a State government, not so much.

Anyway, who else is even close to her conservative views? She has the guts to do what she thinks is right. That’s got to count for something. After watching Lindsey Grahamnesty just briefly I’m ready to retch.

And in addition, she scares the whatsis out of the likes of Katie Couric and Charlie Gibson and that’s more than enough recommendation for me…

I’m not anti Palin by any means…but I’m not an enthusiastic Palinista either…

I think you’re giving good advice here…because if I’m not mistaken, it’s what Christi and McDonnell did…and the only thing Hoffman could do…

I’ll also point out it was what propelled Huckabee and helped him to be able to play ball against Romney and his Millions, and McCain with all his party machine backing IMHO.

Unless, of course, she has this poison pen thing going on with Lisa.

BTW: true sign of the Apocalypse-she hires on Art as her chief Consultant and Oppo Man.

Best move she could make.

And this was my main point — as you say — I’m not sure his narcissism will allow him to even risk re-election with sub-60 approval ratings going in (and they might be half that if he keeps going like this).
