Fresh from her six-figure, red-meat dish to the Tea Party insurgents, Sarah Palin topped that with the acknowledgement that she just might run for president in 2012. Just what we don’t need: a graphic reminder that things could, indeed, get worse.
Were that to actually occur, we would be an America that — in the name of populism, in-your-face anger, veiled racism and neo-con sloganeering — would have elected a person less qualified than, say, Ronda Storms to be chief executive. A lot less so. Even Storms’ harshest critics concede that she is neither dumb nor ill-read.
Thanks again, John “Country First” McCain, erstwhile patriot.
