I'm no Palin defender, but TWuG's prediction is pretty out there.

Bad candidates come and go. She's just another one. Acting like she'd mess up the Republican party for a generation just sounds like mad ravings. Plus it gives fuel to her "I'm the victim" fire.

I thought Republicans didn't like people who played the victim card...(nm) - amoxy Jul 8, 17:11 2
- Well, they don't like it when other people play the victim card. - the liioulu with fabric flowers and real cake Jul 8, 17:14 1
  - now who's playing the victim card? - Beryllium Jul 8, 17:15
*IF* nominated, she'd mess up the party. I don't think they'll nominate her for anything, let alone President. - TWuG Jul 8, 17:01
Ah c'mon, Rush is already taking care of that. -- nm - the liioulu with fabric flowers and real cake Jul 8, 16:59
Actually...I don't think he's that far off. If they decide to rally around her and try to make her their Obama...it will set them back several - Jim Jul 8, 16:56 14
- Why? Kerry was about as bad a candidate as the Dems could put up in 2004. - Inigo Jul 8, 17:01 13
  - They are losing everyone under the age of 30 already. Trotting out another clueless show pony would do more serious damage - Stewie Jul 8, 17:07
  - Kerry was bad, there's no doubt there. But she's monumentally bad. - Jim Jul 8, 17:05
  - Kerry is a succesful politician, though. Maybe not a GOOD politician, but successful. - TWuG Jul 8, 17:03 2
    - He lost the presidential election. She lost it. He's won Senator races. She won the governor's race. - Inigo Jul 8, 17:07 1
      - How many times did she run? And how many times did Kerry run? -- nm - the liioulu with fabric flowers and real cake Jul 8, 17:11
  - Huh? How was he a bad candidate? -- nm - the liioulu with fabric flowers and real cake Jul 8, 17:03 6
    - He lost to Bush. -- nm - Beryllium Jul 8, 17:05 5
      - That's not a bad candidate, just a losing one. - the liioulu with fabric flowers and real cake Jul 8, 17:10 4
        
        You're thinking of Gore. The Bush/Kerry election wasn't really that close. - Inigo Jul 8, 17:12 3
        
        It was. " Bush won the popular vote with 50.73% to Kerry's 48.27%. Although in percentage terms it was the closest popular margin ever for a victoriou - the liioulu with fabric flowers and real cake Jul 8, 17:21
        
        I consider the flipping of Ohio changing the results as close. -- nm - David Jul 8, 17:19
        
        Yes, Bush/Kerry was a fair win by Bush, I think. - Beryllium Jul 8, 17:18
  - an election cycle is two years, is it not? -- nm - Beryllium Jul 8, 17:03
