America can't be this dumb. What's the attraction?
She must be an elaborate conservative ruse.


Thought this was amusing:


I can hardly wait for the audiobook.

1. She was an attempt to attract PUMAs bitter after the primary.
That's the only reason she exists on the national stage.

Think about that for a bit.

3. She's two things
One is a packaged celebrity whose mention will increase ratings on news and chat shows. For that reason alone, she's not going away.

The other is deodorant for less flamboyant nutcases like Gingrich and Huckabee, making them appear dignified and sane by comparison. Expect her to get maximum exposure all over the place through the mid term elections, at least, and probably beyond.
