Can you remember the strength of the anti-Reagan feeling in the 1970s, c2? Remember the talk about drafting President Ford to run for VP with him because he was such a 'dunce' that he needed the help?

At base, what has Sarah Palin done that is so terrible to earn all this anti-Palin feeling? They loathe her because she muffed a hostile Katie Couric interview? They hate her because she's folksy? Hardly.

They loathe her because they fear her potential.

You don't see Vanity Fair doing hit pieces on Mitt Romney just now, do you? or the other potential GOP candidates? Much less John McCain. He won't run again, so why bother?

The very strength of their feeling tells me that under the right circumstances, she just might be electable.
