But you trash Palin for good reasons?

C'mon. i'll try and drop it. (If you were on the Religion forum, you could have a caucus of like-minded and freeze interlopers like me out.)

There are more important things to deal with than something that may or may not be a possibility a year from now. Btw, Christie who may have that charismatic presidential gravitas elixir has not yet taken a position on cap-and-trade or Obamacare. He has also come down on the wrong side on the NYC mosque issue. So, you'll note in my history that I have expressed reservations about him with (???? or RINO?) until he makes some clarifying statements. (I'm sure he's holding his breath waiting for my endorsement. )

A candidate worth considering besides Palin is Haley Barbour -- a terrific spokesman for the conservative movement. (pssst. It was Haley, a previous RNC Chairman, who was the media antidote to the unappealing, heavy-handed Newt in '94)

But I'll probably drop my input on Sarah in '12 because the hype is getting way too much play on FR. And who invited me to be the skunk at the picnic? My insight is very limited on the topic anyway. What is disconcerting is that if you consider the GOP field outside Sarah, there are not a lot of heavyweight contenders. In '06 the Dems knew they had Hillary and Obama as hole cards. In '12, the GOP is going to have a rocky road.
