and where do you live, texas? alaska? alabama? no wonder....
it's not just DC and new york. It's illinois, Massachusetts, new hampshire, vermont, CALIFORNIA, new mexico, oregon, washington state, rhode island, colorado, pennsylvania.....Palin doesn't stand a chance in any of those states.
all she's getting are the southeast, texas, arizona maybe, midwest from ohio through idaho minus illinois, utah, the dakotas, montana, alaska and possibly maine. the only people that support palin are the rural democrats. rural areas dont have big populations (naturally) and therefore less votes electoral votes. You cant carry the election on just the rural red states. You have to have the majority in at least three of the following: california, new york, Pennsylvania, texas and florida (out of the big ticket states). Washington, ohio, illinois, india, michigan and jersey are also deal breakers or makers. Those states are outside of Palin's political grasp.
I see a very different political future for Palin. she will run for president, but drop out. The presidential run will give her enough support to supercharge her career and allow her to become apointed to a white house position (in a republican victory), simmilar to what hillary clinton did, or maybe run for senate. A successful presidential run then drop out at the last minute can often guarantee a seat in the senate.
