Just goes to show that no one, not even the great Mark Steyn, is perfect. In fact, this time he’s simply wrong.
Look at all the national political figures, especially on the Republican side, who ran for President last year without holding elective office while they did so. I didn’t see Romney, Newt, Giuliani, Huckabee or even my guy, Fred Thompson, holding any elected office.
The fact of the matter is this: if Sarah Palin were to decide tomorrow that she is a candidate for President, come 2012 she will STILL have more executive experience than the current occupant of The People’s House did when he decided to run.
If she runs, I’ll support her. And I hope she does — God knows we’ll need her more than ever then.
Newt obviously shouldn’t have been mentioned in that last post. Apologies.
