I disagree with those who say that by her response to the recent Tucson shooting, Sarah Palin has destroyed any chance she had at being president. I don't think she had a chance before that. What's more, I think she's known that all along and has merely decided there is much money to be made (and perhaps some peripheral political influence to be wielded) by continuing to put on a show for the 30% or so of the population that loves to hear her bash Obama and Liberals and Democrats. If she really thought she had a shot at the Oval Office, she'd be making some effort to woo Independents or even moderate Republicans. Instead, it's all red meat for the reddest states and the Tea Party crowd. You can't get elected with a 53% unfavorable rating or by avoiding actual debates and interviews.
