When Obama wins, will Sarah Palin have a future in national politics or will she be a footnote in history?

What will become of her after losing this November?When Obama wins, will Sarah Palin have a future in national politics or will she be a footnote in history?
Here what you have to consider.. Did she resign her governorship ?? Yes or No.. If yes,,she is confident and will give it her all,, if not she is hedging her bets,,and will have the governor job if she loses...Same way with McCain.. If he resigned his senate seat,,he's confident,,if not HE';s hedging his bets.. Either way ,,We really all know ,,America is broken,, who broke it,, and who will try and fix it,,and who will give us MORE OF THE SAME !! OUR choice,, I pity our POOR AMERICA,, if we get it wrong !! L HWhen Obama wins, will Sarah Palin have a future in national politics or will she be a footnote in history?
Well it's always difficult to say. Some bright and shining stars have plummeted, and people like Richard Nixon have staged some of the greatest comebacks in political history.

Sarah Palin is a little different than Geraldine Ferraro. GF was a congresswoman in an age when very very few women had been elected to the Senate. She gave up her seat when she ran for VP. Most importantly her team lost in the greatest landslide in history.

Using your supposition that McCain will lose, it will undoubtedly be a close race. She will still be governor for at least four more years. I wouldn't expect her to drop into obscurity again.
Obama's running against McCain..And even Bill Clinton say's she's formidable.





The old pro from Hope warns Democrats not to underestimate the Killa from Wasilla, recognizing the visceral cultural appeal Palin offers.





Bill Clinton thinks Palin is formidable





From an interview with CNBC:





MARIA BARTIROMO: Were you surprised by the Palin bounce for the McCain campaign?





PRESIDENT BILL CLINTON: No, she's a-- she's an instinctively-- effective candidate. And with a compelling story. And-- and I think it was exciting to some-- that-- that she was a woman. It was exciting that she was from Alaska. It was exciting that she's sort of like the person she is. And she grew up in a-- came up in a political culture and a religious culture that is probably well to the right of the American center. But, she didn't basically define herself in those terms. She's basically said, ';Look, this is where I'm from. I'm not gonna impose this on you. This is what I wanna do that I think we can all be a part of.'; So, she handled herself very well. So, I-- no, I wasn't surprised. I think that-- you know, I disagree with them on a lot of these issues. And that's why aside from party affiliation, that's why I would be for Senator Obama and Senator Biden anyway. But-- but, I think she-- I-- I get why she's done so well. She-- she's-- it's a mistake to underestimate her. She's got good in-- sorry-- intuitive skills. They're significant.

It is *far* from certain that Obama will win... but if that horribal blot on our country's history were ever to happen there is the term of Governor to finish and likely another.. then she could be in the '12 Presidantial race...
Obama win, I'm laughling out loud. Like that will ever happen. Sarah Palin will be the First Woman President in 2012. Democrat for McCain/Palin 2008.
Obama will not win, and it will be Obama as a footnote in history.





Hillary won't let him run again in 2012.
Sarah Palin will be elected President of the United States in 2012 after serving 4 years as Vice-President.
She will be remembered as that ';weird woman'; that the Republicans nominated back in 2008 as their v.p. who lost and then returned to Alaska never to be heard from again. (I hope).
Footnote in history just like Geraldine Ferraro did.
Nothing but a footnote in History








Obama 08
If she ever ran for president she would be laughed off stage by her own party.
footnote
You are forgetting one key problem in your argument there....obama won't win.
no she will not be written down in history she will go back to were ever she came from lol
McCain will win, and Sarah will be in the Whitehouse.
She will deflate and return to the drawer.
She'll disappear.
maybe small footnote in some books.
she'll probably try to run for president.
Yep, she'll be the first woman president down the road. JUST WATCH.
You mean like biden already is ??
she will take a hike on that bridge to nowhere...
I think this is probably the Republican's strategy with appointing her as McCain's running mate. They know he won't win the 2008 election. But by rolling her out now, at the 2008 convention, they're pre-positioning her for a presidential run in 2012, just like the Democrats did with Obama in 2004. Given that Obama will be hamstrung by Bush's budget deficit for the next four years, and that all of the media vetting that Palin is getting right now will be ';yesterday's news'; by then, I think Rove and Co are making a very shrewd gambit to win back the presidency in 2012.





I hope I'm wrong about this, but that's what it looks like at this point.
