Calif Conservative. You are trying way to hard to look smart. Here is the thing: I knew about that contradiction when I wrote the piece. The contradiction was necessary to the allegory. The point is that Palins actions, and natural events in general, often defy common knowledge, or what is perceived as logical. Keeping that last statement in mind, my post was perfectly logical.
***** my post was perfectly logical. *****
If you say so (snicker)
If Palin runs as an independent, she will split the anti-Obama, pro-liberty vote. She will get 20-25 percent of the vote. Ross Perot with all his billions got about 20 percent.
Since you’re “logical” about this, 25 percent isn’t enough to win in a 3-person race.
The likely result of your “logical” suggestion is a 2nd term for Obama.
What’s so tough for you to get it? Either Palin runs or she doesn’t. If she does run, it will be as a Republican.
If she’s so great, why wouldn’t she win the GOP nod? If Palin doesn’t run, that action provides its own answer.
