"only 18 percent of Alaskans think Palin should make a bid for the White House in 2016, with 77 percent— including 72 percent of Republicans — saying she should stay out of the election."
But did they ask WHY she should stay out of the election? Was it because they think she's dumb? Probably not. Was it because they disagree with her policies? Probably not. Was it because they think she'd again be mocked and trashed by the liberal media and wouldn't stand a chance? Probably.
Well, that’s like what my sister told me, in regards to why she didn’t want to see Palin run during the last go-round... because my sister cringed at the prospect of going through and again seeing the vicious, unhinged, media gang-rape of Palin and her family. But were Palin to get into any potential race, my sister’s level of support would be at the most unparalleled heights towards any single candidate in her lifetime. Ditto for me.
