i don't think Palin can win because the press has destroyed her. They tend to do this with anyone that is a threat. The press picked the Repub candidate, in 2008. I think they figured he would be the easiest to beat. If he happened to win at least he was, by far, the most liberal Republican running. As soon as he got the nomination they turned on him. No surprise.
Annabelle, I'm a big Bachmann fan, also. As of now I would like to see a Romney / Bachmann ticket.
