Sarah Palin's tease is wearing thin at this point, for me at least. She loves the spotlight, no question about that, but shows no sign of putting together a credible campaign organization. Mounting a winning campaign for a presidential nomination is hard work, let alone mounting one for the presidency itself. So far, all she's proven to me is that she loves the celebrity life, but would not want the work involved in running for the nomination and presidency. The more she continues this tease, the less I admire her.
I know lots of people who love the spotlight. I'd venture to say that just about every FReeper knows those kinds of people. Folks I know who love the spotlight -- the drama queens, the it's-all-about-me types, the family feud types, the show-offs, the know-it-alls, the hams -- are a totally different breed. Politicians who remind me in their ways of spotlight lovers? Well, McCain, for one. Obama. Biden. Gingrich. Pelosi. In honesty, Reagan loved the spotlight, too, but I always love that it was because he was such a master at being in it, not because he wanted to be noticed more than the others, which is what I think you mean when you say "love the spotlight."
So far, all she's proven to me is that she loves the celebrity life, but would not want the work involved in running for the nomination and presidency.
Now, please. THAT comment can only have come flying out of your butt. Look at her. This is a person all about work. Physically and mentally, this is a person who knows how to kick ass and take names.
*rolls eyes* "... not want the work involved ..." What planet do you live on -- your screen name?
