Sarah Palin is going to be filthy rich, wealthy as sin, flush with the green, a minting machine. Good for her!!! She is savvy enough to have already realized that Media Darlings rake it in alarmingly faster than mere state governors.
While her charisma is undeniable, her memoir is unreliable – at least according to her former co-losing running mate, Sen. John McCain, and his minions. With such a compelling story to tell, it’s too bad she felt she had to LIE about what really happened.
She could well be The Candidate of the GOP (whose sane and pragmatic centrists will have been out fear mongered and out shouted by the Right, the Far Right and the Far Far Right) in 2012 and again in 2016. Her exalted position will have been set in stone by her uncanny ability to drive energy, volunteer hours and umpteen millions of dollars to her chosen candidates in 2010 and beyond. This could render Reasonable Republicans as endangered as the lowland gorilla.
But with all her Electricity, she will NEVER be elected POTUS. Not in 2012 or 2016 or even 3016, should she live that long. As Anita Loos once observed about Los Angeles, “There’s no There there.”
Simply put, one George W. Bush was more than enough.
