That Sarah Palin is so much more polished than POTUS. SHE doesn’t even have to use a teleprompter!

Andy, thank you so much for posting this. Now I'll admit I don't think President Obama has lived up to the hype but if the GOP is going to hitch its wagons to this horse, they're very desperate.
It amazes me that so many people actually think she is a qualified candidate and would make a good president. I do hope she runs though, for some reason the GOP tends to bring us more and more candidates that become the butt of good jokes.

I'm with you, PB. I very much hope she runs. I think the Tea Partiers will be shocked when she doesn't win, though. I honestly believe they think THEY represent the majority.

They don't, but Independents do. The biggest problem for (I)'s, and Tea Partiers for that matter, is that FOX and Palin have co-opted their movement making it look much more partisan than it is.
No matter what the movement is called, both Democrats and Republicans are saying everything they can to look like they care about "smaller government" to appeal to this faction. But history tells us, looks are deceiving.
As for Palin, I don't mind that she had scripted answers (to questions that were submitted to her in advance) on her hand. My problem is the notes are about the simplest talking points; "Energy", "Tax" and "Lift American Spirits".
Regardless of the questions, the fact these were the only three answers she intended to give, and needed help remembering them, leeds me to continue to believe she is all flash and no substance.

I liek Saarh. She is best of politicun has us today. Drill babee drill! Her werds streik tru to all reel paetrioitc amerkins.
Obbama is a socialisumist. We must not go down that rode!
Is Saarhh a Repulican, Whig, Federalist, Liberty, Free Soil, Stalwart, Halfbreed, Mugwump, Populist, Progressive, States' Rights, Liberal, or Dixiecrat? I don't no. I do know that she must use the words Socialist and Communist over and over again, cuz it soundz gud; an maeks her sound heroic and paetritoic.
