Comments about ‘Sarah Palin's marketing push flourishes amid presidential flirtation’

'"I believe so," the former Alaska governor said when asked whether she could defeat President Barack Obama in 2012.' - Article

She didn't the first time.

Heaven help us! I am not happy with Barak Obama and he must go. If she gets the Republican nomination, Sarah Palin may well be Obama's savior as she is probably one of very few people he would easily beat in an election. She will turn off most Moderates (who voted overwhelmingly Republican 2 weeks ago) and many Republicans too. I don't think I could vote for her - even running against Obama.

Palin likely already played a significant role in costing the Republicans a senate majority in the recent election.

Republicans should pick someone who can win and get the country out of the hands of Obama and his allies. More importantly, Republicans need someone capable of guiding America wisely. George Bush and the last Republican congress made some very stupid decisions which so angered the American electorate as to hand Congress and the Presidency to the Democrats on a silver platter. Republicans who are angry about the terrible policies of Obama can place much blame with Bush (and the last Republican congress) for helping elect Obama and the current Democratic congress. We should not repeat this mistake. Sarah Palin is an extremely poor choice.

Sarah Palin is the epitome of the "National Enquirer" spirit of today's political theater in America. She possesses no talent other than aggressive self promotion, but like the little girl that eats dirt at recess, she will always have a ready audience. She should run with Paris Hilton or Kim Kardashian as a running mate.

IT was mccain thar ran against Obama.

I guess the truth does NOT fit your made-up narrative.

And now that obama has shown he is a completely inept LEFTEST radical, almost anyone could and should beat him.

Who is caring for her special needs child while she self-promotes herself as the "family values" candidate? Doesn't her child deserve to have his mother at home? Downs syndrome children need structure. Oh well, as long as she can get up in front of crowds and give grandiose speeches with no actual substance, who cares about the little boy at home?
