If you are smug beyond any chance of self awareness and you are confirmed in your contempt for all but a few thousand Americans then Palin is the ideal candidate. Only a group of people who had already been successful in getting a chimp elected would run a howler monkey. There will be swiftblood to come, they will try to make her look good by casting Obama as the missing 9/11 hijacker, a jihadist.
If the rupuglicrat strategy is a winning campaign ploy then what is in play here are the hearts and minds of people who can be convinced that there really were wmd's in Irak, that the French are our enemies for not joining our war and the economy is on the upswing. It is so very hard to see it but Palin may be the one to sway them. God save the republic!
