Palin has no concept of time, she lives totally in the moment. Everything she utters
is a mini memory dump, if it get a good reaction it is stored for another event. A bad reaction is cast aside. She would be hard pressed to name the last president. The old saying out of sight out of mind.

She can not lie because there is no past, only now. Only reactions of those around her, that is why she avoids one on one. She probably will be disappointed that 2010 is not election year to replace Obama. Will she run in 2012 for president? I doubt she can think that far out but neither can the electorate.

She is totally in tune with the soft under belly of today's voter. What 2012 will be like if 25% have no job and tent cities are the norm, she will be the next president. You betcha.

1. Palin will never be President. As for 25%, companies will start hiring
early next year.

2. A mean spirited nasty "Chance the Gardener".
"Being There" was a classic bit of dark comedy. However, what made it biting humor was the fact that you could ALMOST see something like that story happening in our United States. Which is more a commentary on our society than it was about "Chauncey Gardener".



Chance the Gardener: As long as the roots are not severed, all is well. And all will be well in the garden.
President “Bobby”: In the garden.
Chance the Gardener: Yes. In the garden, growth has it seasons. First comes spring and summer, but then we have fall and winter. And then we get spring and summer again.
President “Bobby”: Spring and summer.
Chance the Gardener: Yes.
President “Bobby”: Then fall and winter.
Chance the Gardener: Yes.
Benjamin Rand: I think what our insightful young friend is saying is that we welcome the inevitable seasons of nature, but we’re upset by the seasons of our economy.
Chance the Gardener: Yes! There will be growth in the spring!
Benjamin Rand: Hmm!
Chance the Gardener: Hmm!
President “Bobby”: Hm. Well, Mr. Gardner, I must admit that is one of the most refreshing and optimistic statements I’ve heard in a very, very long time.


Tell me that Sarah couldn't muddle through (with injection of the appropriate winks and "you betcha's) a very similar simplistic economic forecast.

4. Are you kidding? She does this already. This is exactly how she talks!
"Ooh, yeah, what we need to be doin' is solvin' all these problems and stop tryin' to get those 'gotcha' moments. Once we do that, these problems we're facin' will be solved!"

She just never says ANYTHING. Just a bunch of little quips and cliches strung together to sound like a sentence. And since her idiot fans are scarcely brighter than she is, they fall for it. They actually think she's saying something, 'cuz, y'know, it sounds like common sense smarts! You betcha.

6. No, Chance may have been a simpleton...
but he spoke very proper English, and in short declarative comprehensible sentences.

Sarah, on the other hand, is a simpleton.

"I like to watch"!!!

5. And she doesn't wear underwear.
That's what 'going rogue' means.

10. She is the ultimate extravert
Her only thought is the next thing to say. It doesn't matter whether it's the truth or not. It doesn't matter whether it's even cohorent or not. As long as her mouth keeps moving, she gets joy juice.
