"Virtually every time Ms. Palin speaks out, she reinforces some of the worst impressions or deepest concerns many of us have about her. If she were to become the voice and representative of the GOP and the modern conservatism movement, both would suffer a massive rejection. Sarah Palin will not be elected president; and for her sake, I hope she decides not to run." Conservative Peter Wehner
And it's for those reasons that I hope she decides to run.
That is, with the caveat that she could actually win. Which often tempers my enthusiasm.
