Still, few express much regard for Palin’s ultimate chances. One adviser to Mitt Romney, the former Massachusetts governor, and, by traditional standards, the putative 2012 frontrunner, says of Palin, “She’s not a serious human being.” Another Romney intimate warns, “If she’s standing up there in a debate and the answers are more than 15 seconds long, she’s in trouble.”
I have little regard for Romney, and I am confident Sarah will win in 2012, but I do not believe there is an “advisor” to Romney who spoke to the hack at Time (who the anti-Palin troll Allahpundit quotes), and the same thing goes for the “Romney intimate.” Was this his wife? His mistress? Who is intimate with Mitt these days?
These are just lies invented by the hack at Time, a publication that routinely makes up phony sources.
Or is it Steve Schmidt?
