Well she really can't hope to become a credible candidate for any higher office if she can't take the heat of being governor in Alaska and a little post-election political rough housing.

I mean if she couldn't hack this then no one in their right mind, even a conservative who thinks she is sexy, can make a case for her for president or something.

I think it would just now be sooo easy to mow her down on that one point alone.

Of course maybe if she comes back after several years when she can really make the necessary commitment she might be able to start from scratch.

Hopefully she'll find out it's easier now to just be a celebrity or something and leave politics alone for while.
