They do not read what we read, they do not know who's who in politics, they aren't going to listen to pundits make what they consider inane arguments against someone they consider SuperWoman...Though maybe the enemies of conservatism will, and use such as wedge down the road. The failure to harness a phenomenon like Palin by true conservatives may very well be fatal to the zombie Dead Elephants.

Bi-partisanship and the Romneys/McVains of politics are terminal deal-breakers for me...Period. If, as I suspect, she is disavowed by the party, as Quin foreshadows, helping to form early opposition arguments against her, then I hope she is driven by the Dead Elephant to the head of a new conservative party, with people like Coburn, Sessions, DeMint, Pence at her side.

It also reminds me that the "true believer" candidate may not be the best candidate for the GOP/conservative voter, either. Sometimes someone with the "right" philosophy and a couple "wrong" policy views would do better than the guy who has more "right" policy views (today, anyway) but no philosophy. Good job, Stacy.
