Krauthammer has no idea what Palin has been doing behind the scenes. Because he's not in the loop he makes assumptions and then spews them publicly as fact.
Palin could be surrounding herself with the best and the brightest - or not - we don't know and neither does Krauthammer.
To say what he said without knowing the truth makes Krauthammer a person of low character.
Do you know for a fact he doesn’t know? You may be right, I’m not very plugged in. He is likely far more plugged in than I am. You are probably far more plugged in than I.

Like we don't speculate ourselves about a whole lot of different things.
So I guess every one online who ever made a guess about someone in public life has low character.
Krauthammer's a pundit -- an opiner or opinionator or opinionist.
Once upon a time, that might have meant someone who had special knowledge, but now it means someone who makes guesses and hopes they're "educated guesses" that are right more often than other people's guesses.
Time will tell if he's right this time. Maybe Palin will prove his guesstimates wrong.
But don't hold your breath waiting.
