Let me first start off by saying I do like Sarah Palin. This is not a shot against her, but the fate of our country is at stake in 2012 and I’m going to speak my mind regardless if the so-called conservatives like it or not.

Palin has a great future ahead of her, but it’s not in running for President of the United States. That is something republicans and conservatives need to start realizing, and realizing now. It’s not that she couldn’t do the job and do it well, it’s that she doesn’t have much of a chance to actually “win” the election. Obama has to be defeated, and we can’t chance it with Palin.

Why?

1. The GOP needs a fresh face. Palin is old news. She was the VP pick and lost, time to move on to better things. Stop looking back, and start looking forward.

2. She made a mistake resigning as Governor. I have watched the interviews, and have come to the conclusion even she can’t honestly say why she resigned. However, it’s clear she did it to write and sell some books. I can’t blame her either. In a couple of years she most likely won’t be making headlines. Now is the time to take advantage of the popularity, but lets just be honest about it.
3. 2012 is going to be a nasty fight, I think we can all agree on that. Palin has had a hard time dealing with the media attacks, and those will be nothing compared to what the left will pull out in ’12. Once again, we can’t take a chance based on past performance.

I have my thoughts known on Twitter about this subject, and the Palin supporters have come out in force. First claiming that it’s because she is a woman. That is funny considering the tactic of the left is to claim racism at every turn. Now I have to deal with this? This leads into another point, which is a portion of conservatives have too much of an emotional attachment to Palin. I can certainly she why, she is a beautiful, charismatic woman.

However, emotional attachments to candidates are a trait of liberalism. It clouds judgement, and that has been proven over and over with these comments towards me from conservatives.

I would personally like to see Palin take over the RNC. She would do a fantastic job at running out the RINO’s currently running it, but she needs to skip the Presidential bid. We have to take back our country, and we need someone even stronger than Palin to do it.
