I have been trying, for the life of me, to figure out exactly how the Republican powers that be can actually look at Sarah Palin as a serious candidate for 2012.
Is this some sort of old Republican frat boy prank? Or are they simply planning on using her as a sort of puppet regime should she be elected....heaven forbid!
The last thing that America needs is a President who couldn't locate Afghanistan on a map(or spell it) if her life depended on it. Or worse yet, one who would simply quit in the middle of her term because "those nasty reporters just won't stop writtin' stuff 'bout the family".
I have yet to hear her utter an intelligent sentence...about anything.
I have heard numerous Republican talking heads speak about her as if she was the Virgin Mary/Margaret Thatcher/a female Ronald Reagan  And the followers of these talking heads are dumb enough to agree.
For the sake of the country, please just let her go away.

The "win at all costs" attitude of the Republicans is so bad for this country. Why can't they see that?

Don't make the mistake of putting all Republicans in the same pot. I am a Republican and wouldn't walk across the street to see Palin, and actually think she is a jerk that has her 15 minutes in the sun, nothing more nothing less.

Good post Greg.
I don't think it's the REPUBLICANS that are throwing Palin forward,it's the wacko neoCONS that are pushing for her...there's a HUGE difference between a repub and a neoCON just like theres a huge difference between a Dem and a lunatic ultra liberal.

The only problem is that "wacko" and "lunatic" are relative terms.

One can always tell who the Democrats fear most by watching who they attack first. Lots of attacks on Palin. Makes one wonder why the dems fear her so much....
My prediction is a Romney/Palin ticket. If the economy is still flat in 2011/2012, Obama loses in a landslide...

Personally, I see a schizm developing within the rep party. There are conservatives who believe in fiscal responsibility and personal freedoms and then there are those that feel that republicanism and christianity are somehow tied together and worse still have a god given mandate on how to run the country. Two very very different mindsets that can no longer co-exist.
Can you guess which 'republicans' Sarah Palin appeals to?
