Don't say goodbye to Palin yet. A new Rasmussen poll shows that 64% of Republicans wish to see Sarah Palin atop the ticket in 2012. WTF? Seriously. She didn't know that Africa is a continent. She has no better character than to run for the 2nd highest office in the country, even though she knows squat other than how to attack and answer questions like the beauty queen she was, extemporaneous bullshit, saying nothing and making it sound like something kinda, and people love her.
All I can say is that the right wing continues to use fear of the unknown to appeal to its constituents and their voice is somehow much larger than their numbers. Fear always does block out everything else. But I'm really hoping we can come together, as Obama is trying to do. I've been reading this morning about attacks on Obama for his first staff appointments and for the fact that Iranian leaders called to congratulate him. The election is over, but the attacks continue. It makes me sad. But Obama seems to know that as long as forward-looking people continue to work diligently together and not stop to argue nonsense with fear then we will get there.
