The birth certificate, rightly or wrongly, has been painted a kook fringe issue. There is no upside for a politician to discuss it.

Nailed it.

The thing that make me most uncomfortable is the whole hero worship aspect. It's become the flip side of Obama worship.

Again, you nailed it. Love the blog by the way...

To further your point, Palin was picked by McCain for EXACTLY the reasons you list above. Palin was supposed to be the GOP answer to Obamania -- our own unqualified, not quite ready identity politics answer. I said as much in September 2008. The base bought it hook, line and sinker.

The more of us like Rick Moran, Cal Thomas and Jonah Goldberg that speak out on Palin, the more vile reaction we'll get -- but in the end, we must face the ugly truth about Palin. She ain't Reagan, she ain't Maggie Thatcher and she is not going to save the GOP... she can only destroy it. Or best case scenario she'll just go rogue and QUIT again... :)

You do nothing but spew personal attack emotional bile at Palin and her supporters yet you then have the arrogance to start whining about getting tactics directed back at you by her supporters?

You bitch about Palin "playing victim" then rush to play victim when your own posting style is directed at you?

I cannot decide which is more appalling, Your overweening arrogance or your rabid hyper ignorance

Hahahahaha...Moran writing under an alias, no doubt...who else would compliment that nutball?

So, you put down charismatic appeal by comparing her to the two most charismatic conservatives in recent memory and then sayiong the appeal is unimportant? Ohhhh noooooooooo...ohhh geez...NOW what do we do? Your man Bobby Gin-Doll sure has their qualities in Spades, though huh?

You effing moron...try to come up with a line of attack that works with at least a fifth grader...your crap isn’t selling here...

Actually she was picked because of her work in energy.

I personally don't care how bad these clowns bash Palin. They're beltway conservatives. They don't have any influence on the base.

but in the end, we must face the ugly truth about Palin. She ain't Reagan, she ain't Maggie Thatcher and she is not going to save the GOP... she can only destroy it. Or best case scenario she'll just go rogue and QUIT again

Yep, she's a quitter and will destroy the GOP, which is why thousands of people in different cities are camping overnight to see the quitter in person.

Have fun watching your loser candidate get the support of the grassroots in 2012.
