Whether Palin or any other conservative as any chance in 2012 depends on how well the country is doing economically. If President O's economic policies work or if the country just recovers despite them, his re-electon is assured.
We are living through the failure of capitalism. Excess greed has skewed decision making processes in business too much toward short term goals. When everybody is trying to get a bonus by short term manipulatation of stock prices, the real economy that provides long term jobs and profits suffers. Investors that support these short term thinkers are engaged in a game of musical chairs with other investors. Who can get cash out before the enterprise crumbles?
Ultimately it is not whether a policy is liberal or conservative but whether it works.
