Palin

Apparently Palin is still a viable candidate for the 2012 presidential race. Why? I really wanted to like her. She's a woman who represents the "everyday" person, who isn't, or wasn't I suppose, filthy rich and disconnected from the needs of the middle class.

Unfortunately she has narrow views, is under-educated, and is at best a confusing speaker. And now she's quit her job 1/2 way through her term? Perhaps she quit so she can become more educated on current events and see a speech coach. Unless she somehow learns to open her mind any additional education would be wasted on her.

I would be very afraid of her as president and frankly I find it scary that she has a large following. How can her followers ignore the mountain she made out of Letterman's comments? If she can blow up about something small like that how in the world would we avoid war?

I sincerely hope she's decided that politics are not for her. Maybe she'll work as an evil lobbyist or corporate sell-out girl. Either is preferential than her running the country.
