Per your post, Palin gives great speeches, has good political insight in being able to pick the winners of elections, but you say that those aren’t leadership traits?

Giving poor speeches and having poor political insight is better for political leadership?

What you said doesn’t make sense.

Let's look at it from another direction.

In 2008, Barack Hussein Obama gave great speeches and had good insight into picking the winners in political races.

Did that make him a good leader?

Obama became president, so it counts for something. What he lacked was any work experience, let alone executive experience. Palin has it all.

Thanks for making the case for palin so clear. Maybe you are a closet Palinista, but your wife monitors your computer use?

Yes, Obama is leading in the wrong direction, but he is a more effective leader because he gives adequate speeches than if he gave poor speeches. I won’t characterize his speechifying as “good” since I’ve never been moved or even struck by his words, but I’m not his audience.

And I think you are making up that Obama showed any special skill in picking the winners of political races. I had never heard that or noticed it, while it’s commented on a lot with Palin.
