Sarah Palin, Fools Rush in When Others Dare Not.

Alright, how could I start any talk about Republican hopefuls for 2012 without Sarah Palin going first. Not that I feel she is the top candidate, but she surely is the one that can create the most feelings, either positive or negative. Ms. Palin's claim to fame besides the unsuccessful run for Vice-President is that she is the half term governor of Alaska. She cited the need to help the people of Alaska as the reason she left after only completing two years of her four year term. She helped in one way. She saved them from two more years of embarrassment. Since then she has made millions of dollars by writing books. I wonder if she read them? Sorry I was asking a, "gotcha" question there. She has made more money by being, "Fair", on FOX news. She has also been a TV star. All this to help the people of Alaska. Just be honest. I have no problem with her making a gazillion dollars, but please be honest with your reasons behind leaving the governor's job. Thinking about a President Palin, sorry those two words, president and Palin just don't seem to go together very well, and her first press conference is quite comical. Asked which magazines she reads, now she is ready for the question, her response is Hunters Illustrated and Field N Stream. She feels this helps her to keep the gun lobbyist in her corner. Asked about how she would create jobs she winks at the camera and says, "Let me get back to you about that one." Asked about the current situation in the Middle East and whether she supports Democracy there, she responds, "You betcha, us hockey Moms are all for that." The final question is about the Canadian Prime Minister's lack of support for trade agreements, she then stomps away from the podium, muttering something like, "I quit, I'm going back to Fox, beside it will be better for the American people."
