I have had it with the phrase, "I like Sarah Palin...but..." This is not coming from Liberals, reticent Independents, but Tea Party Conservatives. I have had it!!! I will invariably ask, "well, why don't you like her?" And I have never received a satisfying answer. The speaker will look thoughtful, hem and haw for a moment, and usually come with something as lame as, "she's weak, " "she can't possibly win," or "the mainstream media hates her!" What??? Does any thinking person really give a flying frisbee about what the MSM regards as good or bad? I will no longer accept the mobthink in which the entire Left, and many on the Right, participate when it comes to Palin. Look closely at Sarah Palin. Scrutinize, research, follow, and read the words she has written. She is no lightweight. She is highly intelligent. And though she is not pretentious like Obama or Kerry, she is eloquent. Her eloquence comes from her heart-felt love of country and love of God. I challenge you to press anyone on the Left or Right, who glibly dismisses Sarah Palin as qualified Presidential candidate, to give a legitimate reason for their stance. I assert that she is qualified, she is soundly rooted in the Constitution and the concepts individual liberty and accountability. She is an individualist, unique, tough and whip-smart. And SHE CAN WIN!
