In reply to the discussion: Palin: I'll 'Hopefully' Run for Political Office Again, To Annoy 'Haters' [View all]Mike Daniels
(5,842 posts)91. The national GOP will torpedo her as soon as she actually throws her hat in the ring
Although I seriously doubt Palin has any intention of running as even her primary challengers would be lining up to remind voters that she quit half-way through her last elected office to pursue media fame.
The only way she'll run is if the GOP basically hands her the nomination and I'm not sure what race that would be. She has no chance of winning another office in Alaska and she can forget any chance at POTUS.

Seems like a good enough reason to run except I suspect most "haters" would be delighted.....
