Sarah Palin isn't running for President yet, but if she does, she says she'll win.
"I believe so," the ex-Alaska Gov. told ABC News' Barbara Walters when asked if she thought she could beat Obama.
Though she lost the election to Barack Obama when paired with John McCain in 2008, Palin thinks she could win in a rematch.
"I'm looking at the lay of the land now, and...trying to figure that out, if it's a good thing for the country, for the discourse, for my family, if it's a good thing," Palin told Walters, in an interview that will air Dec. 9 as part of "10 Most Fascinating People" year-end special.
Her declaration, reported Wednesday, was largely ignored by other politicians as it comes as no surprise.
Once vague about her plans to run for president, Palin has actively ramped up her rhetoric in recent months.
She has created her own political action committee SarahPAC and has been dropping hints right and left about her wish to run.
"If there's nobody else to do it, then of course I would believe that we should do this," she told Entertainment Tonight last month.
She also confirmed her consideration of a 2012 campaign in an upcoming New York Times Magazine profile.
"I am," she told the Times, when asked if she was weighing a bid. "I'm engaged in the internal deliberations candidly, and having that discussion with my family, because my family is the most important consideration here.
A recent AP poll shows Palin to be the Polarizer-in-Chief, splitting the public with a 46 percent favorable rating to a 49% unfavorable rating.

That's not name calling if its a fact and if Sarah
P gets elected as POTUS it will be by a gang of dumb ass white people.
They should pass a law that you must at least travel abroad once in your life time before you can run for president. Its really easy to jump the gun and order bombing to kill people if you never seen them before. (Ain't it Bush)

....I'm one or many black voters who with good reason did not vote for President Barack "the Magic Negr@" Obama namely because President Obama has no regard for the U.S. Constitution, etc., etc.
In 2012, Sarah Palin would definitely get my vote. I support the Tea Party, namely because these individuals support the U.S. Constitution and the rule of law!
