What facts would lead you to believe Palin wouldn't be capable of doing the job?

If you were misled to believe that the President is the "leader of the free world" or a "Super legislator", that's not in the job description. Frankly, we haven't had real presidents in quite a long time. We've had stooges and front men for the puppet masters behind the curtain.

Case in point - the Constitution (their contract for specific performance) states that Congress shall have the power to declare war (Art. 1, Sec. 8) and thus empower the Commander in Chief to expend American lives and property.

Since 1945, what has Congress been doing?
There have been no constitutional wars since 1945!

Don't ask me, ask your congresscritter WHY he and his fellow 'honorable men' are petrified to stand up on their hind legs, and make a public vote to DECLARE WAR... Or cease funding the destruction of American soldiers and property, around the world.

What manner of cowards are they?
They can vote themselves raises, benefits, and perquisites of power, but they dare not do the right thing.
I don't know, the fact that she's a bimbo.

If all it takes to get these Liberals OUT of here is to elect Sarah Palin, shoot let's have a special election TODAY!

Sounds like a win-win for everyone.

Liberals could go to a socialist country to live.
Conservatives get OUR country back!

Everyone would be happy.
As long as I get to be Todd Palins intern!!!!

Now someday I am going to retire to the country I mentioned so you will be rid of me anyway...eventually. But even so if a special election were held today between Palin and Obama. Obama would win 40+ states, he often out polls Palin by +20% or more. Palin will not be president anytime soon. 2012 is too far away to predict, but from her polling against other Republicans it is questionable where she would even win a primary.

The left wouldn't look so silly by continuing to rage about and trying to savage someone that lost an election 7 months ago.
