No doubt about it that Sarah helped McQueeg. Let’s see if McQueeg goes back to form in the Senate.

We ought to boycott any candidate who uses the slime balls that are attracting Sarah. No more RINOs.

People need to keep sending money to Palin. It’s gonna take her four years to get enough from all over the country to buy her way in like everyone else does.

Amongst all the name-calling and recriminations going on here the past couple of days, this is the most sensible and important comment I've seen.

If you love Sarah as I love Sarah, send her a note of thanks right now, and include your address so you can be part of the organization she will soon create. Then fund it as generously as you can.

Even if you don't think Sarah has what it takes to be President, you need to do this to give her a megaphone as the #1 cheerleader and fundraiser for conservatism and Constitutional government.

The way the question was asked has a lot to do with it.

The 20% who said she had a negative effect may have in fact LIKED her, but are reacting strictly to the media coverage, and may be thinking that some voters would have a negative view of her.

Dear Gov Palin,

Please please please do NOT fill Stevens’ Senate seat if it comes to that.

You are a popular governor and in 4 years nobody can say you would have no experience.

It is not that few Alaskans support her. By the time, the race was over by 9 P.M EST Alaska was still voting. Many republicans just stayed home instead of venturing out in the near freezing temperature outside. The same is true for California too. We had almost a million votes less. People just stayed home once the race was over by 8 P.M EST election night

McCain is the reason Sarah lost

Sarah's poor performance in the Couric interview pretty much did her in. Can she overcome that and change her perception to the vast majority of American people, we'll see. At least now Sarah can be Sarah without having to carry McCain's water anymore.

"Palin could also run for another term as Governor in the state where she still enjoys very high approval ratings.

I think she needs to do just that. It would set in stone her undying support of Alaskan's, and the invalidity of the "troopergate" and other leftist, trumped up charges.

That will be in 2010, and if she decides to do something Nationally in 2012, it will be just a feather in her cap (not that she needs it).

It was similar for Bush V Kerry in 04.

Because she is vey popular with the party, but is not taken seriously outside of it. I think she’s too damaged to be an effective candidate in a general election.

Are there exceptions? Of course, as Reagan is often cited here. I just don’t see it. I guess we’ll find out next time around.

No source, naturally.

This explains the bitterness among the McCain staffers. Their own candidate was to blame.

AMEN, Tommy!

Anyone with at least an eye, an ear, and a brain could have figured this out.

Good point. In Alaska she ran a more centrist popular government. That’s why she got 90% approval rating. She has the instinct to know how to attract the moderates and independents. Let Sarah be Sarah and nobody can beat her.

Our preliminary final numbers (a few thosand ballots left to count) suggest McCain got 500,000 votes LESS than Bush in 2004.
