Not saying she, or Bachmann, are VP or Prez material, but they make the race interesting beyond just the physical. It changes the dynamics and brings out the female (and even male) voter that might not turn out otherwise.
.
Both Palin and Bachman are powerful pieces of the whole kingmaking process even if neither of them is nominee material. They are in that whole Tea Party, Fox News, constellation which is an ungodly powerful block these days. And they have dotted line connections over to Rubio, Paul Ryan, Jim Demint, Rand Paul etc and can move a lot of votes. That however is more of warning for the republicans than the dems right now.
Come 2012 election, the dems are going to find (just as they did in November) that having your campaign headquarters down at MSNBC doesn't cut as much ice as it used to.
