Palin's Prospects

I have long been hoping that Sarah Palin will not only run for the Republican nomination in the next presidential election, but also that she'll succeed. I have also been quite sceptical of her prospects. Given that she has the far more coherent and far less annoying Mitt Romney running against her, I've always assumed that her prospects were dim. However, given that Obama, and people at the Cato Institute are pointing out how extremely similar Obama's health care reform bill was to Romney's own health care program in Massachusetts, and given that those on the right seem to be looking for someone who is entirely opposed to Obamacare, Romney will be severely handicapped.

On the other hand, Ron Paul has been getting increasingly impressive poll numbers. Either way, if either a retard like Palin, or a crackpot like Ron Paul get elected, it will mean the end of the Republican Party for quite some time. Hopefully, if Ron Paul gets elected, he'll at least legalize weed.
