This is the mirror image of the problem that Democrats had with Barack Obama. He was the perfect embodiment of leftist core values, and was utterly untested. He failed. The 40 year reign of the Democrats that they crowed about in 2008 didn't even last 40 months. Now the Democrats are in ruin, and their Dear Leader is dead weight.
It's a cautionary tale to anyone that values ideological purity over measurable experience. It applies to us as well as the left.
Like I said Sarah has over 20 years in politics + she was a governor with power unlike Perry who has none. T-paw had a lower unemployment rate then Perry.
