Palin remains a potent figure in Republican politics. She 6yhad previously been cited as a top pick for a 2012 GOP presidential bid. A recent poll showed she was a first choice for 73 percent of Republican voters surveyed.
Huckabee, who ran for president in 2008 and could try again, said her announcement raised more questions than it answered, but he remains a fan and continues to believe she can be a viable candidate.

As reported in the Boston Herald, a Rasmussen Reports poll released today shows that Sarah Palin is in a statistical dead heat with Mitt Romney for the 2012 GOP presidential nomination. This poll belies all the liberal media pundits who declared last week that Sarah Palin had severely hurt her political career with her resignation from the Alaska governorship.
Former House Speaker Newt Gingrigh said today that the 2012 Republican Party nominee will emerge from "a wide open field" -- but he suggested that AK Gov. Sarah Palin would have a "substantial advantage" in Iowa, the first-in-the nation caucus state, where she has "a very big base."
Assuming her departure does reflect a strategic decision to prepare for a presidential campaign — Republicans have been wondering why she quit so abruptly — Ms. Palin may be looking to the next few years to do what Nixon did to prepare for his successful run for the White House in 1968.
...the decision to leave office would make it easier for her to travel around the lower forty-eight states and build the infrastructure for a 2012 presidential run.
OMG! You are a Ben clone. I said no such thing.
