    Why is Salon still obsessed with this woman?

    I'm sorry, but until she actually does run for the office, She deserves no place in the public spotlight. Yes, she's an idiot, yes, Bill Kristol has the blood of everyone killed in Iraq the past six years on his hands, yes, her folliowers are a bunch of brainless end times zombies who think Jesus supported tax cuts for the rich. But I'm pretty sure whatever scandal that caused her to resign the governorship will sink any future chances she has of the presidency, not that they were that great to begin with. She'll get a part time speaking gig on Fox, write a couple books, and her "base" will move on to the next Left Behind spewer that comes along. End of her story.

    Meanwhile Obama's numbers are starting to slip because the stimulus package isn't producing results fast enough. There's a good chance the GOP will take back congress if things don't turn around soon. Let's worry about the more immediate problems before we have to see her face sooner then we have to again.
