Can Palin win in Texas in 2012?
Texas is one of the largest states voting in the elections. Out of curiosity, do you think she can carry this state? I know they usually vote predominately Republican, but will they go for Palin? Your thoughts?

She's not running. If she does it will be as a Tea Party candidate, not as a regular Republican.
For all the noise, if she does run as a regular Republican she will lose, the Republicans will lose more people than they already have, and may not recuperate.
There are some very sane, very conservative people who look on the fringe growth as something very unsavory. They are not pleased by that direction, they are the ones with the money and influence to make an election happen, and they will not open their wallets for the kind of half crazy loons that the Tea Party people attract.
Whatever the origins of the TP, its come down to crazy people running for office who make broad statements without any apparent thought or knowledge. Things like the Chicken Barter Lady, Bachmann, Brewer, Palin, people that intelligent sane people recoil from, yes Republican sane, intelligent people.
While some small county or state elections might have a win or two, the broader support just isn't there for their ranting and raving. They might win for a state wide election in Texas, but not for a national election.

Your are no longer likely to love this, by way of fact the certainty hurts. Sarah Palin would particularly win many of the states, and in 2012, would develop into the forty fifth President of the US. no longer basically do i understand this, yet so do maximum Democrats and all Liberals. i understand they understand this, by way of fact they practice on a daily basis have afraid they're that Palin would run. concern of Sarah Palin is the only reason that Democrats bypass out of their thank you to objective to discredit her at each and every danger. occasion: Sarah Palin had actually no longer something to do with the shooting in Tucson, AZ, and every physique knows it. They are conscious of it now, and that they knew it then. basically partisan Democrats tried to concentration blame on Sarah Palin, and nevertheless ignore with reference to the certainty approximately Jared Loughner. yet another occasion: Many % in charge the tea social gathering for the shooting by way of flow-hairs placed on a number of key districts interior the 2010 elections. no person pronounced something with reference to the bulls-eye targets placed on Republican districts in 2008 by way of Democrats. (good day Liberals, your hypocrisy is showing back.)
