LOL, the Quitta from Wasilla is butthurt that her candidates went down in flames in Mississippi and Oklahoma. Now she wants to take her ball and go home.

Run Sarah run!

Even Republicans and Hillary-haters should root for a Bush-Clinton-Palin race. Imagine that debate. Too amazing to resist. If you are not rooting for it, shame on you.

I'm tots rooting for it. Cheesy Even better if she picks Ted Cruz as her running mate. Tongue They can even start their own political party: Free Texas & Alaska Party! (Or Texas & Alaska Independence Party)

That assuming she can crask 15% in the polls, a requirement to be allowed to debate. And that can be very difficult.

I'm sure that if Palin were to run as a third party candidate she'd pull at least 15% in the polls.

I doubt it. Her fanbase is extremely loud but also somewhat small. When she was included in polls for the GOP primary in 2011 she rarely cracked 15%.

True... and considering the Republicans only made up 32% of the electorate in 2012, Palin would only get about 5 percent of the vote in the general election, unless she somehow picks up some Independent voters. That wouldn't even reach Perot's level of support.

She's embarrassing.  I really wish she'd just form a new party full of culture warriors and xenophobes...  If for no other reason than they wouldn't be Republicans anymore.

LOL, good luck winning without those.

"Good luck winning any elections without Southern Whites, Democrats!!" - Everyone during the '60s and '70s.
