She is only 48 years old, for goodness sake.
By the time she's 52, this country could be so far down the crapper, that nothing she could do would help save it.
THIS was her moment - AMERICA's moment, and she let it go by.
Which means she will be 56 years old when she runs.
I hate to sound bad but the fact is, men and women both expect a professional woman to be attractive. A guy can be fairly ugly and win power. Can a woman? I think there is a double standard against it.
While Palin will never be ugly, at 56-7 years old, she is going to be a bit more wrinkled than today. You know perfectly well that if the MSM was hard on her today, when she is 57 years old, they will be taking high-definition closeups of every wrinkle and liver spot and showing that on your 55” widescreen TV.
Like I said, I will vote for her in 2020 if she runs.
I admit my mistake about her running in 2016. I meant 2020. Romney will be president in 2012, and he will seek re=election and likely lose to another Dem in 2016, so the earliest Sarah can run for election again is 2020. She could run for Senate however, and that might be a wise thing to do in the meantime, now that she has a home in Arizona.
Or maybe McCain plans to retire and appoint her his replacement. I can only dream.
