As far as 2012, I like Mitt so far more than Huckelberry, Palin, and Pawlenty, but would rather have a better candidate who is a little sharper and has a little more intellectual depth. Know anyone? Intellectuals are more often destructive than constructive when they're in positions of political power. You should know that. Hello?????

Your protests ring hollow. To lump Palin in with Huck and Pawlenty is self-deceptive at best. And PLEASE tell us what value "a little more intellectual depth" would be?

I think that you are reaching for any reason you can to reject Palin. You look a gift horse in the mouth -- we have had a gift delivered right to us, and you turn your nose up at it.

It doesn't bother me that you disagree with me; I'm not sure the converse is true.

I just don't care for her for a large number of reasons. For example, she raised the price of oil for everyone in America for the benefit of Alaska's socialist economy, spreading the oil wealth around her constituents at the expense of Americans.

I also don't find her intelligent or intellectual and seek a candidate who is capable of writing their own book rather than farming it out (and Mitt FAILS at this too, as his book was ghostwritten as well).

I've also had personal dealings with her and her operation and, well, I can't disclose but that is why I am looking elsewhere in 2012.
