Pundits speak of [Palin's] lack of professional organization. What they don't speak of so often is her willingness to say and do things very few politicians will. She will play the race card powerfully, often and repeatedly. She will run a campaign against Obama as an un-American. She will run on hatred of elites, will turn every sad gaffe, lie or untruth into "truth", she will deploy religious motifs more effectively than any Republican candidate in modern times. In the last campaign she accused Obama of being a friend of terrorists, and was prevented from using Jeremiah Wright in the last few weeks of the campaign. She will make the Willie Horton ad look like happytalk.

Most responsible politicians do not throw gasoline on a cultural tinderwood. But remember Tucson. Even then, she could show no restraint, no regret, no responsibility. Even when a politician was shot in the head, she tried to divide and conquer. And the MSM have no idea how to handle her, how to cope with her, how to expose her. She destroyed them last time and somehow perpetuated the meme that they destroyed her. This is a dangerous, dangerous person.

#1 - Mon Jun 6, 2011 9:27 AM EDTMost responsible politicians do not... can we conclude that SP is NOT a responsible politician? Scary? Yes? But does she have a broad enough appeal to take down Pres. Obama? I just do not see it. I cannot imagine that there are enough moderate Repubs and Indeps that will support her over Pres. Obama if those are there only two choices. She'll have the far right. Pres. Obama will have the far left and the moderate left. Where does the moderate right go? (Is there ANY palatable option for them? Do they simply not vote, or do they find a 3rd party candidate and take votes from SP?)Where do the independents go? (Probably to Pres. Obama.) With her high negative ratings how do you take SP seriously? Yes, she could get 20% of the electorate rabidly behind her. That's not enough to win.

What I found was truly repulsive, selfish and ultimately ignorant was when Palin tried to make it look as if she was the real victim in all of this (the Tucson shooting), and not a Federal Judge, a young girl (now with no future), or a Congressional Representative.
It really volumes about her character.

Yeah, even Roger Ailes advised Palin against doing her "blood libel" speech.

This says it all. Palin has her own "reality".
Last I checked, Palin's approval rating was 25%. You got to ask yourself, how can her approval be so low when she doesn't have a real job or any real responsibilities. That 25% has to be based on her celebrity alone.
