Unfortunately though, I'm concerned your analysis is correct looking at the current field of GOP hopefuls. The nomination will be simply a popularity contest and in that light Palin will certainly win. She'll have over two years to prep and will likely not make the same mistakes she did in 2008. Unless someone comes out of nowhere that's a better candidate, I'll be pulling for Romney.

Palin (and why does it sound like I'm tooting her horn today? Weird) has an Op-Ed in today's Washington Post. She's slamming Obama on cap and trade. It's a pretty good piece.
