I think if W were allowed to run again this year, he would have been booted, though, so who knows about my theory.

The Palin base would have an even tougher time defending her incompetence if she were subjected to the scrutiny of a Presidential candidate. As it stands, they had a tough enough time defending an interview with Katie Couric and a prank call by some Canadian DJs. Her debate wasnt even a debate...it was all canned questions. Imagine if she were actually speaking to the press almost daily, like a Presidential candidate does.
When was Obama ever really subjected to the scrutiny of a Presidential candidate?
