Yes, she will be the nominee. There isn't one other solid Conservative who brings in the numbers she does.

She'll be the nominee or I predict there will be violence at the GOP national convention. No friggin’ way will we allow the snot nosed party hacks to hand us another Rino.
Screw them.

- and as for Romney? Seriously, the man can't even come out and endorse the Conservative in the recent NY race? Please.

Amen to that brother!

There is no other possible candidate willing to fight the fight like she is, with the exception of Demint and Hunter.

There is no other possible candidate who is and comes across as sincere as she is in her beliefs, again with the possible exception of DeMint and Hunter.

The rest of them are Posers!

There are going to be primaries and people are going to vote. If Sarah Palin wins the most votes she will be the nominee if not then she will not be the nominee. It is that simple. The Republican Party cannot force anybody if the voters do not choose him in the primaries.

I believe that your prediction is right on the money. No conservative politician has ignited the right-wing base like Sarah has, in a very, very long time. I'm not analyzing the percentage of yeas, versus nays regarding Sarah on this forum, but I'd say that she has about a 90% favorable rating here.

If Free Republic is any barometer of what the center-right wants in 2012, Sarah wins the nomination hands down.

Like many others have said, I don't see anyone - and I do mean anyone who comes even close to her level of enthusiastic support. The rest of the potential field of candidates that we know of at this juncture compare to dry toast, slimy oatmeal, or stale donuts.

Sarah is an invigorating glass of sparkling champagne, compared to all the rest.
