Sarah Palin's not going anywhere.

Sarah Palin's political career is over.

That is what I, and countless others, thought when it was announced the former Alaska Governor would be getting her very own "reality television show" on the channel that features Little People, Big World, and 19 Kids and Counting. There was just no possible way for her survive the show, unless it became a major hit.

Never underestimate the power of Sarahcuda:

Five million Americans tuned in yesterday to watch the world premier of Sarah Palin's Alaska, on a Sunday night, when the Patriots and Steelers were battling it out on NBC. Not since Going Rogue sold 2.7 million copies nationwide last year, has the former Republican Vice-Presidential candidate had this much command over our Nation's short attention span.

I'm still sure that Governor Palin will not run for President in 2012, but if she does - I'm starting to think she could actually win the Republican Nomination, with or without Huckabee in the race. Her base is strong, her will is strong and her fighting spirit is definitely strong. Don't count her out just yet.

What say you?
