Agree on Demint.. My chips are nowhere near Sarah after her mediocre performance at the Tea Party Convention.

[Huck]

I saw Palin's tea party performance. I thought it was basically par for the course. Palin-mania is Fred-mania on steroids. It will be interesting to see how her fans and followers react if a)she doesn't run in 2012 or b) she runs and loses the primary. They have a lot of emotional investment in her. To me, it's dangerous and ill-advised.

What's the big hurry with her, anyway? She's in her 40s. I'd like to see her appointed Sec of Energy. That to me would be a good fit for her right now. Let her grow. Give her some time to develop. But then, her celbrity pixie dust may wear off in time.
