Palin represented everything base and terrible in the human species. She was stupid, shallow, mean, clueless and rambles without making any sense. She is a lot like a stupid Nixon incapable of telling the truth. We are guessing there is another shoe to drop. But I can also see the possibility that she will go on the lecture circuit. Right wingers will still pay $10's of thousands of dollars to see her speak. She has a book deal that has to be worth millions and she's running for the presidency in 2012. If she stays in the governship, her popularity is only bound to go lower as it becomes clearer and clearer how incompetent she is. But make no mistake, she ain't done with this country.......unfortunately.

July 3, 2009, 9:00 am Secrets of the WSJ Paul Krugman This morning’s Wall Street Journal opinion section contains a lot of what one expects to see. There’s an opinion piece making a big fuss over the fake scandal at the EPA. There’s an editorial claiming that the latest job figures prove the failure of Obama’s economic plan — something I dealt with in the Times. All of this follows on yesterday’s editorial asserting that the Minnesota senatorial election was stolen. All of this is par for the course; the WSJ editorial page has been like this for 35 years. Nonetheless, it got me wondering: what do these people really believe? I mean, they’re not stupid — life would be a lot easier if they were. So they know they’re not telling the truth. But they obviously believe that their dishonesty serves a higher truth — one that is, in effect, told only to Inner Party members, while the Outer Party makes do with prolefeed. The question is, what is that higher truth? What do these people really believe in?
