Too many people imagined that she had magic powers...

I see dead that you're still flogging the tired, intellectually lazy, people-imagined-she-had-magic-powers strawman.

Most Palin supporters did not think that.

Read again what the person (pgyanke) who posted this vanity said...

'For the conservatives, she had the unique combination of being right on the issues with a national presence, political machine, steel spine, gumption, charm and a salt-of-the-Earth attitude which comes from being one of the people--rather than one of society's elites. She was a fierce independent who battled both parties and their corruption. In every battle she fought her way (and 2008 was not fought her way), she won. She didn't rest on her victorious laurels, either... she cleaned house, reduced the perks of her own office and restored confidence in government offices. She did these things for Alaska... we wanted her to do these things for America."

You do a disservice to most Palin supports and the poster of this thread when you wave around the careless strawman.

Oh please.

For months, I've seen rage and vitriol when I simply pointed out that Sarah Palin was not going to run this cycle. It was obvious. She had no infrastructure, no team, no plan.

But I was told I was an idiot. I didn't know Palin, or I didn't listen to her.

She didn't need advisors. She didn't need a plan. She didn't need an infrastructure. She was going to run and win.

Maybe that sounded logical to you. It sounded magical to me. It was a power Palin never had. Nobody does.
