Palin is the now the most thoroughly vetted politician we have on the right side of the aisle. If there was a dealbreaker of a skeleton in her closet, it would have been found and talked about for three months without stop.

The other contenders are being eliminated (or eliminating themselves), at a steady rate of about one every week or two.

BTW, I really am getting sick of Republicans having to meet a much higher standard than Democrats. A Democrat can do just about anything and get elected or re-elected.

Alcee Hastings is one of the few judges in American history to be impeached and convicted, and he was then elected to Congress. He was found by the Senate to have taken a large bribe in connection with sentencing someone. Now he is a bigwig on an intelligence committee.

I am not saying that we should put up with just anything from our Republican elected officials. But if the other side protects their elected officials, while we tear ours apart for any imperfection, we should not be surprised if we end up with very few people willing to get into the ring.

I have to disagree. This game, DEM v. GOP, is being played on a field that is muddy, bloody and the lines blurred to meaninglessness. That field is our nation, the homes, lives and fortunes of We the People.

The lack of standards by one side does not preclude the other from holding to theirs or our Churches would not exist.

No, we must hold ourselves to those higher standards even in the face of overwhelming evil or lose ourselves even in victory.

Keep the faith, my friend, we are in good company.
