Frankly, I'm beginning to think nominating her in 2012 is Obamas only hope of reelection, so be my guest.

Using a teleprompter because you can't consciously recall every word of a 20 minute speech is a far cry from writing, "taxes, energy, spirit" on your hand so you don't forget the values you supposedly represent. See, I managed to do twice in about the same time she spoke without having to look at my hand once. Of course, I don't have a pregnant teenage daughter whose ex was talking to Playgirl about a centerfold, and I'm not stumping for a Governor who tries to force a six month old HPV vaccine on every schoolgirl in the state and thinks taxpayers should pay to build roads as well as every time they drive them. I probably wouldn't promote myself as cutting taxes and promoting Christian family values if I did either, but IF I took that approach I might need a reminder of what I supposedly believe.

As for Andy Reid, he may be a "fool" but I haven't worried about his intellect much since he stopped coaching the Eagles. Personally, it's statements like that I think form a lot of her "populist conservative" appeal; the Baptist minister and former Governor of Arkansas is a lot more consistent in his support of the values he claims to support, but he actually knows how to talk policy rather than throw out lines about how he's from "the REAL America. " I could probably live with him as President because I actually trust him not to do things as mercenary as I expect of the woman who bashed Obama and Biden for pork after she sent Congress letters begging them to send Wasilla pork.

This isn't about her values, no, it's about the fact she has trouble remembering what they're supposed to be (not to mention expressing them effectively. ) She preaches to the choir, but if that's who you want in 2012, again, I have nothing more to say than "THANK YOU!!!"
