I don't discount history at all. History is a favorite subject of mine. Like I said, I don't doubt that a true Conservative could win someday, just not as soon as 2012 and certainly not Palin(too many people have her pegged as a dope and a quitter). In any case, we'll just have to wait and see what happens then .

I'm no Palin defender, but can we really definitely say who couldn't be elected in a few years? Did anyone in 2006 think an African American could be elected in 2008?
