Most significantly, a Palin victory is highly likely.
But even if things turned out otherwise, Sarah Palin is not—based on what we know of her and on her life in general—the kind of individual who would stand in the way of a Palin-led American victory by worrying and fretting about some imagined “mark of a loser.”
This kind of shallow-minded image crafting is only used by rinos, progressives and other narcissists as they scheme for their personal advancement.
I'm sorry, but she would lose the general badly, however, because of the media-generated attacks that still linger over her.
Remember, we do not elect the president. Neither does DU. Middle America does, especially the women, and women who break late (critical in any Presidential election) usually vote AGAINST the female candidate.
