And she was quite grateful, praising him high and low through out the campaign.

Okay, you have just jumped the shark. What exactly is the vice presidential nominee's job? We saw Sarah Palin stump for John McCain, for his policy positions, for his campaign. She had to work with his talking points, including the "Wall Street greed" line. She had to put up with his staff and his manager. We have not seen Palin stump for Palin. By the way, we saw every other prominent Republican sing his praises too. Does that now disqualify all of them? Romney, Gingrich, Huckabee, Giuliani, Jindal? You pretty much have to throw out every republican in the public eye last year.

During the campaign the democrats kept calling McCain 'four more years of Bush'. You are playing the same disingenuous game. Attack Palin's record. Ridicule her faults. But trying to lump together a highly successful governor who has established her conservative bonafides by how she has governed with a veteran beltway insider who loves liberals almost as much as he loves cameras shows a surprising shallowness.

Palin might not be the best choice in 2012. Someone else might rise to the top. Great. You say you don't support anyone else right now. Everyone else gets a wait-and-see. But you are working very hard to tear Palin down. It makes one question your motives.

I don’t know who the best will be in 2012, but I know who it won’t be when I see it.
What is so hard to understand about that?
