Anyone who wants the job as much as any of the other candidates obviously did should be automatically disqualified from having it. Hillary Clinton shouldn't even be allowed to visit the White House, because of her demonstrated lust for power at all costs.

I'll not disagree with that principle, but there's a difference between *wanting* the job, and believing you're the right person for the job. It's a subtle difference, but distinct.

Those who seek power, should, by any sane person, be suspect. But those who reluctantly enter the public arena, because they feel they have no other option, are a different breed altogether.

*THIS* is the real difference between Hillary Clinton, and Sarah Palin, and not their personal philosophies. One is an elitist, who seeks power for her own ends, and the other, everywoman, who entered the fray for the sake of her family, and neighbors...
