It is a subscription-only article... but I thought it might be of interest to you all that an article of that title showed up!
I have some serious doubts on whether Sarah Palin has the level of confidence necessary to duke it out toe-to-toe with her prime competition. Also, I have some serious doubts on whether she has the level of experience necessary for the job. A third inexperienced showing in the oval office would be a disaster for the country. So, I am watching closely how she develops over the coming new year.
Her speech at the RNC was one of the best speeches I have heard.. but her repertoire of stories is limited and after hearing them so many times, it has gotten a bit old. Her book has good content, but she does not draw on them much in her speeches. She will need to encapsulate more of her real world experiences in the Governor's office to frame her experience well and project an image of a qualified executive. If she does that and manages to handle questions from the media without getting prickly faced, I will be delighted.

I read an article on this that wasn't subscription only. I agree with you Sanders on Palin. I don't think she has the necessary experience. I did not want her to quit her job because that would have given her experience. We would be foolish to elect another inexperienced person and like I said before I didn't vote for the first African American because of experience I don't plan on voting for an inexperienced female either. I still think Hillary is going to break it in 2012
