Both Fred Barnes and Charles Krauthammer recently lamented that Palin has spent all her time since the election running around like a celebrity, picking fights with talk show hosts, and accepting plaudits from her adoring public, and no time whatsoever brainstorming with and learning from nationally known, qualified people on the challenges facing the nation in foreign affairs, the economy, and the drearier quarters of public policy. In other words, she's all glitter and ambition and no substance, and she's not doing the work necessary to become substantive. And, unlike dear old George, she has a noticeable Coulteresque mean streak, but without Coulter's smarts. She is not qualified. We just had an unqualified Republican president. We don't need another one.

So, for proof, you offer up ONLY the opinion of two NOTORIOUS moderate Neo-Cons who were in the tank for Rudy, a liberal Republican, from the beginning of the primaries.

One of which, Krauthammer, is totally wrong on the social issues from a conservative perspective.

This is what passes as proof in your mind?

This is what you propose to change the minds of conservatives on a conservative web-site?

“Conservatives on this website” can do what they will. They can live in their little dream world if it makes them happy. But Palin is a LOSER who will never occupy 1600 Pennsylvania Ave.

Why? Because she is unqualified. And serious people — right, left or indifferent to party labels — can see it, and will not vote for her.
