Personality cults get ugly.

Our last vice presidential candidate, who was the most popular Governor in America, with a 20 years powerful record in politics and elections including 2010, is a personality cult in a Presidential race? What you think of someone believing that their little known choice will go from never having been elected to anything, straight to President of the United States?

Can someone who over 60% of the country says they will NOT vote for ever become President?

No, Sarah Palin is not a personality cult. Sarah Palin is a politician, pundit, kingmaker, etc. Palin's personality cult is entirely separate from Sarah Palin, and I don't consider her to be responsible for it.

I think that describes a perfectly normal, healthy, political partisan. If all you see on the Palin FR threads is perfectly normal, healthy political partisanship, then I guess I see something you do not.

To me, conservative government is the gold ring, and politicians are just the help we hire to obtain it. I may respect the hired help -- I certainly respect Sarah Palin and would support her candidacy -- but that about ends it for me.
