This morning on Fox News Sunday, Chris Wallace conducted a 25-minute interview with Sarah Palin, a paid contributor to Fox News. Palin told Wallace that she doesn't think President Obama will win reelection in 2012 if he "continues on the path he has America on." However, Palin indicated that his chances of winning would dramatically change if Obama simply declared war on Iran:
WALLACE: How hard do you think President Obama would be to defeat in 2012?
PALIN: It depends on a few things, say he played - I got this from Buchanan - say he played the war card. Say he decided to declare war on Iran or decide to really come out and do whatever he could to support Israel-which I would like him to do. That changes the dynamics of what we can assume will happen between now and three years. Because I think if the election were today, Obama would not be elected.
WALLACE: You're not suggesting that Obama would cynically play the war card?
PALIN: I'm not suggesting that, I'm saying if he did, things would dramatically change if he decided to toughen up and do all that he can to secure our nation and secure our allies. I think people would shift their thinking a bit.
