After months and months of teasing, Sarah Palin decided to not run for president and stay at her $1 million analyst job at Fox News Channel.
I can't help but wonder whom this will affect more. Mitt Romney probably wanted her to run, someone to muddy the Not-Romney waters. Herman Cain may be the flavor of the week, but he rose so quickly to win the Florida straw poll that I can't help but wonder if he could just as quickly fade. Rick Perry's supposedly fading, but I wouldn't be so quick to count him out. All he needs is one good debate performance. Judging from past debates though, I see Cain doing better than Perry.
Romney, meanwhile, had a much easier row to hoe attacking Perry. How is supposed to handle Cain? Romney's been making a big deal about how he's not a career politician and he has private-sector experience. Cain has never held public office and has private-sector experience. Does Romney need to now emphasize his four years as the governor of Massachusetts?
