Run, Sarah, Run!
It would be a dream come true for Sarah Palin to be the GOP nominee.
By any poll numbers out there, she is not electable.
This would be the best thing that could happen for President Obama’s re-election campaign.
From former New Hampshire Republican Senator Judd Gregg in “The Hill”:
Because the nominating process has become so dominated by primary elections, with the vast majority of the delegates chosen by direct vote, it is entirely possible that with no presumptive winner or even favorites, a candidate who runs second or third in a great many primaries could go into the convention with a sizable block of delegates.
Who would this favor? Does Sarah Palin come to mind? Although she is not viewed by most as strong enough to win, she is viewed by many as a person worth voting for to make a statement. And primaries tend to be populated by people who go to the polls with the purpose of making a statement.
Finishing second and third isn’t really a big deal — until you get enough delegates to be the nominee. And picking a nominee who it seems would be easily defeated by President Obama might not be the best statement.
