Palin: President run may be 'right thing'
Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin said Sunday that President Obama will not be re-elected unless he radically alters his policies, and she declared that she might — just might — consider running for his job in 2012. Fresh off a fiery speech at the first national "tea party" convention, the 2008 Republican vice-presidential candidate said Mr. Obama has been tone-deaf to the economic angst of the American people and their national security concerns but has time to burnish his credentials by playing "the war card." "Say he played, and I got this from [Pat] Buchanan, reading one of his columns ...
