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.

Agreed.. The Palin-bots are looney-tunes. They simple can’t see the forest through the trees. She’s okay on philosophy but she’s an airhead as far as soaking up knowledge is concerned. She has shown absolutely zero leadership qualities in her brief political experience. Infact, she has shown the exact opposite of what I would consider leadership.

The heat turned up on her in Alaska were nothing but smoking ashes compared to the wildfire of issues she would face as a Prsident.

Absolutely NO Palin.

The Palin Fan Club will back whoever Palin endorses in the primary.

Back in Nov 09, Charles Krauthamer said Palin won’t the GOP nominee, but she could very well determine who the nominee is.
