Palin was a creation of the Republican establishment from the beginning. She is just another politician and not a very good one, either.

Why are we stuck with these re-treads? Why not Issa or Pence or Rubio or Christie? I have this horrible feeling that the RNC has already decided who the next Republican nominee is going to be, and we only think we have a choice when we trudge off to vote in the primaries.

Why not........Pence........

Seconded.

After the 2010 elections are over I think that some new faces will throw their hats in the ring for 2012. That is what I am waiting for, as I am not very enthusiastic about the names currently being put forward as potential GOP candidates.

Not a very good one? have you by chance looked at her record of getting things done in and for Alaska? Have you noticed that she’s the most powerful speaker and fund raiser the party has had in decades?

Yeah, its all a big RNC conspiracy. Couldn’t be that the writer of this piece took an innocent, diplomatic answer to a stupid question and concocted an even stupider excuse for a column, could it?
