I asked my wife last night what she thought about Sarah Palin going to Fox News, and her response was "I guess that means she is not going to run for President." Which is quite the way I have taken this. She had promised to campaign hard for conservative candidates this year. Palinistas have been counting on a possible Presidental bid in 2012. Now it looks like neither of these things will happen, although they are not mutually exclusive. Palin appears to be focusing on a career akin to Glenn Beck or Mike Gallagher, appearing occasionally on Fox News, promoting the books they have written. I guess the next thing will be her own nationally syndicated radio show.
An alternate suggestion, raise money and campaign hard for conservative candidates this year, creating a volunteer army in the process. Use the intervening two years to campaign with the chits you have built up from candidates you have supported, and a small army of devoted volunteers. You are never going to convert the people who do not like you, they don't watch Fox news.
