Trump's mind is crammed with facts, figures and details that he can call up in a nano-second. Palin is long on sound bites but short on details. It would be interesting to see how he would demonstrate the gulf of knowledge between them without looking like a bully.

Palin would have the clear advantage in social issues but this election is not about social issues, it is about numbers (for most of America).

The psychological edge would go to Trump since anyone up against him would have to be waiting for him to point his finger and say, "You're fired".

I don't think we will ever see this and I truly hope that it does not come down to these two but it would be worth watching...

It's damn scary that we are actually thinking along these lines as if our party has no real options. Those with the real-world qualifications lack fire and those with the fire lack real-world qualifications.

Very astute observations FRiend, I also see the same difficulty in Palin. She is rehearsed and orchestrated, but in a difficult and spontaneous encounter, she stumbles. The Couric interview is a good example. Her Face Book presence if very guarded and carefully planned out. Like here speeches. She does not allow any controversial interviews since 2008. Her interviews like the one with Sean Hannity are merely lapdog stroking and pet grooming.

The Donald is at his very best when the guns and arrows start unloading in his direction. His interview with Slopagratomus and BOR are living proof that those who try to humiliate him in a controlled interview, wind up bleeding profusely from the ears and nose. There is no other candidate like him in the GOP field so far.

Palin is also very limited in her scope of appealing to the general Public. Her latest “brilliant” slogan is; “Fight Like a Girl? Are you kidding me? That is something you see at a High School Prom Fest, or High School Basketball game. And coming from a Prom Queen mentality, it seems to be the best she is capable of coming up with.
