Palin

[nec13]

Sarah Palin isn't going anywhere. It's not just the right wing that is smitten with her, it's also the news media. Palin may not have overwhelming "book smarts," but what she does have in spades, is media savvy. She knows how to stay in the news and thus will remain ubiquitous in the public conscience. So expect to see more photo ops like this.

God help us.

Maybe God's on her side.

The media is smitten with her only because she's a freak/joke that helps them feed the endless, gaping maw created by the 24/7 news cycle.  This may get her a show somewhere at some point but hardly bodes well for her political future.

I think she'd rather be Limbaugh than president, anyway.

She could pull off a career on television, and be quite powerful and dangerous there. Unless something crazy happens, she doesn't stand a chance of winning the presidency, but from a perch on tv she could help someone else scary get there.

Limbaugh makes way more than the president.
